Thanks so much Mark. We are so glad to have you with us on our adventures. We appreciate you taking the time to watch our videos and we are always so glad to hear from our subscribers. We really do enjoy making these videos and we are so glad people enjoy them. Hope you have a Happy Easter and He is Risen!
Love the intro and outro; especially the music. And y'all's editing skills keep getting better & better. That view of the Mighty Mississippi brought back childhood memories of catfishing from the banks with my Dad & cousins as a boy. When we moved to Minnesota, we traveled north to see where the Mississippi starts, a trickling fllow of Lake Itasca. That night-time view of the bridge lightshow was beautiful. First time I've seen that. What a treat! I chuckled out loud, too, during the bed check! Carly is a great part of the videos. I'm sure y'all get great joy and satisfaction making these as a family. Just wonderful. 🙏 Keep up the great work!
I bet you did have fun fishing on the banks of the Mississippi. Glad it bought back good memories. We loved the view of the bridge. Really enjoyed watching the lightshow from our room. We also viewed it from the observation deck of The Bass Pro. Carly enjoys doing the bed check! She is a lot of fun. The two of us will cut up when David's getting video footage sometimes. He will come back and ask what we are laughing at and of course we just start laughing more. Thank you for watching and commenting! Hope you have a Blessed Easter.
We had only been to Memphis once previously. We actually stopped to see Graceland on the way home from Branson. It took quite awhile to decide on a hotel here. We had a good stay at this hotel. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.
Thank you so much. We were struggling at finding a place to stay while we were in Memphis. We hope that others will find this video helpful when trying to find a place to stay in Memphis. We really enjoy our stay and was pleased with this hotel. We would stay here again when visiting Memphis. Thanks for watching and commenting and hope you have a Happy Easter. He is Risen!!
I can see why y’all enjoyed staying here. Loved the view from the second room. That bridge was amazing at night. And I really liked the architectural design of the Bass Pro Shop. Another good review.
The view was amazing. We thought the bridge was beautiful at night. Really enjoyed the light show. The Bass Pro was a venue for sporting and entertainment events before it became the Bass Pro. It's one cool building.
Thanks so much! It sure was a beautiful view from the second room we had. Looking out at the Mississippi River was so peaceful. We appreciate you watching and all your support of our channel. How long are you going to be in the area? We are going to Myrtle Beach and if you are still in the area we would love to meet up with you are your beautiful family. Hope you have a Happy Easter and safe travels.
@@FamousFiveAmos we will be gone during that time frame. We will be leaving after church tomorrow and are coming back Friday. Sorry we will miss you. Was really hoping it was going to work out. We would have loved to have seen y'all. Enjoy your time in the area and looking forward to seeing what all you did.
I actually really like the layout of your first room with the chairs and table at the foot of the bed. Plenty of space in there. The second room did have a great view of the river. Safety is a major concern in many big cities so I am glad yall found a place where you felt safe. We would definitely stay here... but Jack really wants to stay in the hotel rooms up above the Bass Pro Shop nearby. So we might have to do that someday too. Thanks for sharing your review!
It would be awesome to stay in the Pyramid. We looked into it but it was a little out of our price range for this trip. Maybe we will get to do it one day. Hope Jack does! Thanks for watching.
You will love Dollywood in the fall. There are so many pumpkins everywhere that they actually carve. We are hoping to be able to make it to Dollywood in the fall too. You will love Tennessee so much. I know we do.
That is the official name of the hotel. Memphis is a rough area and is known for crime. But there are also so many wonderful things there to do and see. Also great bbq too. The reviews of the hotels were concerning. Took us awhile to decide where to stay. This was a good choice that didn't break the bank either. Thanks for watching.
I can't believe you never mentioned the prices like you always do. Say, the first room, how much was it? Other than that, a pretty good video, very informative fresh and unconventional. Looking forward for more!
We don't normally give the prices on the hotels because they fluctuate so much depending on when you go. Appreciate your kind words! Thanks for watching and commenting.
The other room may have been smaller but can't go wrong with a discount let alone that awesome view of the bridge and the Mississippi River! Glad y'all had a great time, did y'all ever make it to the Bass Pro while down there?
You are so right Bradley! The hotel was very accommodating and gave us a good discount. So that is always good. The view from the second room was amazing. We did go to the Bass Pro and actually went on the observation deck. It was cool viewing the bridge and the city from there. You should know if there is a Bass Pro David is going to end up there. lol David and Carly actually bowled a couple games in the bowling alley in The Bass Pro. Appreciate you watching and commenting.
@@vafunseekers a bowling alley in Bass Pro? Now that's a first that I've ever heard of that concept! I'm with David on that one, of there's a Bass Pro then I'm going there too although I was somewhat disappointed in the one in Myrtle Beach, just wasn't as exciting as the one in Pigeon Forge!
Congrats to you, David, on this review! Stop hiding so much. You've got a good, friendly, speaking voice. I've seen the same reviews. And, have stayed away from Memphis as a result. Based on your review, I might just give it a try on my next cross-country trip. I can tell you that West Memphis, AR is a dump. The Waffle House near the hotels on I-40 looks like its been abandoned for years. Only decent food after 8 PM is at the Subway in a truck stop. This was a really good review. Giving you a space heater instead of swapping you to a new room on your first night was kind of cheap. That they had one at the ready tells me that an HVAC failure is not an uncommon occurrence. The breakfast looked good. One of my breakfast stand-bys at a Choice Hotels property is that sausage gravy you showed. However, I like it on toast! Looking forward to your other reviews of your stay in Memphis. God Bless the three of you!
I can not tell you how much time I spent looking at reviews before booking this hotel in Memphis. I didn't want to wake up to a broken window or vandalized vehicle. Everything was good here. The hotel did offer to move us that night but we were hoping it could be fixed the next day. So then we moved when they had to actually order a part. I will say everyone at the hotel was helpful and friendly. That's not always the case. lol We have done most of the reviews from Memphis already. Not sure if we will put anymore together from there. Check out Gus's Fried Chicken video from Memphis if you haven't. We loved it so much we went twice while there. Thanks for your continued support!
We went to Memphis is December. But we did get some good bbq while we were there. Yes, there are lot of good spots in Memphis. David said the ribs in Memphis spoiled him. Thanks for watching!
The first room you had was much better than what they gave you the second time. I don't know how much discount they gave you but it would have been a lot to satisfy me. I probably would have stayed in the first one with the portable heater but even then I would have wanted a discount. People running these businesses don't usually get people who just go along so you have to be sure you get your monies worth. The only reason I say that is because I ran a business and I know what a pain people can be. Memphis is supposed to be dangerous from everything I have heard. I watch a lot of true crime and not much good is ever said about Memphis. I think a lot of Tennessee can be a sketchy place. Be careful and have fun!!
We were pleased with the discount. I do not mind asking how I will be compensated if things are not right. As much we travel we hardly ever have a bad experience with a hotel. But we did have a bad experience at another hotel and I had to insist on getting the amount of compensation that I felt was necessary. David gets a little more wound up with people than I do. I stay a little calmer and let a place know what I think is acceptable. David and the manager had exchanged a few words when I was "negotiating". So when we go to check out from that hotel the manager was trying to add a charge to my bill. There was no way I was going to pay it. So already knowing that this lady would not want to deal with David, I look at my friend with me and say, "Do you mind going to get David from loading the car". The manager looks at me and says I'll just take off the extra fee. She didn't want to have to deal with him again and I knew it. lol Memphis is definitely a place you want to know your surroundings at all times. Thanks for watching.
Really enjoy your channel, glad I found it, you have a nice family, and the joy and warmth of your videos come thru, 💗

@@FamousFiveAmos we will be gone during that time frame. We will be leaving after church tomorrow and are coming back Friday. Sorry we will miss you. Was really hoping it was going to work out. We would have loved to have seen y'all. Enjoy your time in the area and looking forward to seeing what all you did.

@@vafunseekers Thankyou 😊
Nice review all the place here breakfast looked good nice job
Thanks so much!
I'm visiting Tennessee in October for Dollywood Harvest Festival with Sunshine Tours !!! I've never visited Tennessee first time
You will love Dollywood in the fall. There are so many pumpkins everywhere that they actually carve. We are hoping to be able to make it to Dollywood in the fall too. You will love Tennessee so much. I know we do.
@@vafunseekers awesome can't wait!!
when you said down town, i figured it would like like NY or DC, but it was like your average town, not so scary. good to know. 😊

Beautiful bridge
It really is! We enjoyed watching the light show at night.
@@vafunseekers awesome 👍
