Hyatt Centric Beale Street Memphis
The rooms were nice and clean. Beds were comfortable and staff were nice. This hotel is located in the middle of downtown and we felt safe walking around. We didn’t eat at there or have drinks because there are so many places to eat and have drinks in Beale Street and the surrounding area
