Hu. Hotel
Did not use the gym across the street. Air conditioning was great. Parking is across the street but plenty of it. The staff is super friendly. But somebody had to do something about the maintenance. Lot of things falling apart

The Guest House at Graceland
We enjoyed a clean hotel room, friendly staff, excellent live music in the hotel bar, free shuttle to Graceland, and safe parking in a gated lot with security patrols. One charming bonus - they serve free peanut butter sandwiches at 9:00pm because that’s what Elvis liked as a late night snack.
