This apartment is connected to a 2nd studio and there’s an Airstream in the backyard, also rented out separately or all together. There may be other guests on site during your stay but your apartment is only accessible to you. Your stay provides a living wage for a refugee family who lives in the neighborhood and provides the housecleaning. Also, we donate a percentage of the profit from your stay to nonprofits that connect people in need with temporary housing. Thank you for staying with us! We can usually provide an earlier check-in or later checkout with a $25 fee for the extra coordination with housekeeping that is required. Just message us and we’ll let you know if possible.

The other apartment and airstream are inaccessible. The house is located right off Poplar ave, the main thoroughfare through Memphis, and Sam Cooper (connects with I-40). Bus stops are close by on Poplar and Hollywood (check Go@gle Maps for transit directions). Uber & Lyft are great options for travel in Memphis. If you need anything, you’re right across the backyard from the host’s home (check out 5000+ 5-star reviews). We are more than happy to answer questions or offer help if you need it. Just text or call and we'll either come by or if our family is out of town when you are there, a neighbor will be available as well. We hope you thoroughly enjoy our wonderfully diverse & transitional neighborhood of Binghampton. We've lived & raised our family here for 18 years and it’s our favorite part of Memphis, a beautiful example of poverty and affluence living side by side. You might meet some of our International Community, see urban gardens, colorful artwork, and eccentric neighbors. We're a short drive (or a long walk) from one of the best zoos in the nation, Overton Park (with walking/running trails, dog park, playgrounds & more).
