    [997] Seriously 5…read morestars.. Take an Uber here from the airport. It will be about $30 vs $80 on car service :( Each "room" is more like a super cool apartment. It's about 22 steps up to the main level. First floor has a convivence store. We were in Room 6 which was great. The was a separate bedroom which is what we wanted. The room had - roll away bed - iron - blow dryer - cereal - milk - bottled water and OJ - coffee - Full kitchen with eat in area The bathroom was large and comfortable. The bed was great and I slept like a baby. The staff is very friendly and helpful Answered all my questions. There were extra snacks and water bottles available if needed. If I ever come back to Memphis I would DEFINITELY come back here. This place is across the street from the Peabody hotel so we went across to see the march of the ducks. lol

    THEE place to stay in Memphis!!!…read more Talbot Heirs felt more like our home away from home in Memphis (Suite 6 was our abode). Large and spacious apartment-style accommodations: large marble floor throughout, family room, kitchen, large bathroom and large bedroom. The kitchen is stocked with coffee, a cereal and cereal bar selection for the next morning, chilled waters and milk in the refrigerator (every day). The entire right side of our pad was lined with windows and plantation shutters, plants lined the window sills (I don't even have this at home), you could hear the bustle of people outside, the buzz of the downtown. A quick 2-3 block walk to Beale Street, Talbot Heirs is perfectly located. Tom & Sandy Franck are the owners/managers of the property and boy do they make you feel welcome, like a part of the family, a local in Memphis, someone special ... From my initial call to reserve our Suite to the greeting we received upon arrival - first class all the way. I can't imagine staying anywhere else in Memphis. We arrived into Memphis late, 11:15p our flight arrive, which I felt bad for Tom who we needed to wake to let us into our Suite. "Not a problem" says Tom as he eagerly greets us downstairs when we arrive in our taxi, ready to bring our luggage up the stairs. If you don't pay close attention, you just may drive past Talbot Heirs, the sign is subtle, more like an apartment building. Just the way it's planned. Tom got us settled in, gave us a map of the downtown area, outlined the free shuttle that can take us to Graceland (our #1 Agenda item of the next day) and some great places to take in all Memphis ... "Do you ladies drink beer?" Me: "Absolutely!" Before you know it, Tom is bringing us a 6-pack to add to our stocked refrigerator. Since Talbot Heirs has full kitchens in each Suite, guests stock their fridges for their stay and sometimes don't finish their adult bevvies and thus leave them for Tom & Sandy. And this was our added benefit - a 6-pack to start our trip! :) We were only in Memphis for 2 nights and were so sad to say Bye to Tom and Sandy. As Tom helped us pack-up the taxi on our way out of town, a big hug and "come see us again" ... Yes, you will!!!

    The best option in Pocahontas!…read more Yup -- all the comforts of home with extras at every turn, including charging stations Quiet, private, and exclusive from the time you arrive. Love this place!

    Let's say you're lost or maybe visiting old friends, maybe you like photographing old, falling…read moredown, wooden barns scattered along the two lane highways that run through America's farmland. If, for whatever reason, you end up in the "Rice Bowl of America"* needing accommodation in Pocahontas AR and you're wondering what would be, without question, the finest this town has to offer, look no further. Lesmeister Guesthouse provides a 5-star experience at a 3-star price in a quaint, yet, at best, 2-star town**. A commercial building built in 1902 was taken back and repurposed into four separate living spaces each with it's own floor plan and name. Two face Marr St just off the old , still vibrant, town square. Two more have entrances in the alley behind the building. The finest of the lot, the "Laurel", is found around back. Up a short flight of stairs leads to 1100sqft of exceptionally well crafted tri-level comfort. Absolutely stunning. Half a level down what appears to be an indestructible, steel braced, wooden staircase, is the dining/bath/kitchen area. Top notch in virtually every way. Down a another set of rough (from 1902) exposed concrete steps leads to a slightly claustrophobic bedroom (and weak wifi) area, with its king bed, which is actual ground level to the back alley parking area. The (low) door out of the bedroom provides easy loading/unloading from one's car but locks behind you. Take day trips to nearby towns like Hardy with it's historic downtown shopping area or plan a float trip on the Current River out of Doniphan MO. Graceland, in Memphis, is two hours away. Comfortably furnished, nicely decorated, heated towel rack and bathroom floor, bidet, bathroom sun light, EV charging station, local assistance if needed,...without a doubt staying at the "Laurel" at the Lesmeister makes visiting Pocahontas a much nicer experience. THANK YOU!!, whomever built this place!! 5+++++/5 *40% of America's rice is grown in the area surrounding Pocahontas. Be forewarned: the area becomes the "Mosquito Bowl" during harvest season. ** Becomes a 3-star town as a home base when exploring surrounding areas and a 4.5-star town if absolute peace and quiet is required because you're writing your memoir.
