Great value for low cost, convenient to Memphis

by countrybumpkin at Citysearch

We stayed 2 nights, primarily for location and price. Much cheaper than in downtown Memphis. It was a pleasant surprise. The room was standard, not fancy. But it was large, and the continental breakfast was much more than the anticipated basket of muffins and pitcher of juice. The food was all fresh, the hot items hot and the cold items cold, and the staff continually checked on the quantities and quality. We would stay again.

• Pros: Inexpensive, Convenient, Good breakfast
• Cons: No pool

A lodging staple for budget-minded road-trippers and business travelers.

In Short
Since the Ramada brand made its debut in 1954 in Flagstaff, Ariz., the hotel franchise has been offering dependable accommodations with budget-wise perks. Families appreciate the kids-stay-free policy for children 17 and under staying with their parents. Other amenities usually include a swimming pool, full-service restaurant, lounge, in-room data ports and voice mail. Group rates--for wedding parties, corporate groups or family reunions--are available for parties requiring 10 or more rooms per night.
