Sleep Inn & Suites Memphis Southeast Hotel

What guests think

Sleep Inn & Suites Memphis Southeast earns mixed reviews: some guests find clean, comfortable rooms and good value, but many report serious cleanliness problems, maintenance issues, poor check-in experiences, limited breakfast, broken elevators, smoke odors, and a sketchy atmosphere.

Rooms vary, with some guests praising comfortable beds and quiet stays, while others encounter missing or nonfunctional amenities such as TVs, microwaves, irons, or hairdryers, plus intermittent air conditioning and hot water. Service feedback is inconsistent, ranging from friendly staff to long waits, unattended desks, and trouble obtaining towels or deposits resolved. The location feels sketchy to several reviewers, though some appreciate proximity to restaurants and note gated parking. Expect a budget stay with significant tradeoffs.

Honest review here. Decent price, however if you pay with a credit or debt card, there is a 50 dollar charge for an incidental charge. Very dumb way to take your money. You should get it back, but it can take up to 13 days. You cant pay the deposit with cash. The pool was closed if thats something you want to use. The gym was locked by someone on the inside while they were walking on the treadmill. My card didnt get me in. Now for the bedroom itself. No microwave but there was a mini fridge, but it didnt get very cold. There were holes in my top blanket, from wear and tear. The closer you look the dirtier it is. There was only 2 clean towel and the other was on the back of the door, hair and stains on it. The water worked great for me. The pillows will have old faint stains all over them. There will be a few lumpy pillows. There are cracks and wear and tear in the lhallways and elevator. Its dingy but the beds are comfortable. Honestly its only as dirty the closer you look. Breakfast opens at 6:30, so be prepared for a later breakfast. The staff interactions were limited for me, but they were nice enough

Room was comfortable and location was convenient. Maintenance needs to be done as the tub dripped, toilet constantly ran and hot water was lukewarm. Breakfast was cereal or bread and coffee was empty although they tried keeping up with it. Neighborhood is sketchy but it’s fenced and gated with security so it felt safer than it would have been without that

One of the filthiest spaces I have ever encountered . So many stains and bodily fluids that it looked like an FBI forensic lab for dummies. Sheets had been used - bathroom dirty . Wiped down what I could with antibacterial wipes , slept in my clothes on top of the covers with towels. Too dirty to shower there and I left as quickly as I could in the morning. Safer and cleaner to sleep in the car . Dodgy area .

Absolutely disgusting. I understand this was a cheap room but even with that, it was not worth what little we paid. Mold all over the shower and hair from previous guest (I’m assuming). Room smelled of cigarettes even though there was a no smoking sign in the room. Furniture was filthy and the bottom part of the couch had a couch cover on it that was ripped and stained. Room was not clean. Will never stay there again and would recommend a motel 6 over this place.

The property was absolutely disgusting. There were smears and dirt on the walls. The doors looked like they had never been cleaned with stains running down them. The floors, chairs, and bed sheets had stains too. I had to change rooms because the first room I went in smelled and was unclean. The second room was not much better, there was mold on the ceiling of the shower and they had put toilet paper in a hole above it as well that was covered in mold too. The people around and in the hotel did not seem very safe either. The staff at the front desk was nice when I offered to move rooms, but the hotel should really not be rated as high as it is.

Completely disappointed and disgusted with the hotel! My son and I traveled to Memphis for a college tour and stayed 1 night at this hotel. There were always people lurking at the front door every time we were coming out going from the hotel. The room was dirty - stray hairs in the bathroom, soap scum in the tub, and even a cockroach scurrying in the bathroom. The hotel was not maintained well and appears to have unskilled laborers attempting to do work to "fix" problems - mismatched and poorly fit tiling in bathroom, paint splatter on floors, non-working elevator button just to name a few. The continental breakfast that they supposedly offered included toast, tiny muffins, and dry cereal. There wasn't even milk or coffee available.

Homeless people sleeping in the lobby, next to nothing for breakfast d/t outsiders taking all the food. Room smelt of mold and must. VERY unsanitary. First room we were put in had mold and smelt of sewer. Very loud, and dangerous area. We were extremely disappointed in our stay. This place needs to be shut down. We want a full refund. This place needs a full inspection from the health department, and I’d gladly help get this place shut down. DO NOT STAY HERE

Aside from that this property is very nice. The room was clean and furnished well. It was quite comfortable and in better condition than I was expecting. Same with the lobby. I would stay here again if I knew it would be possible to encounter someone upon check-in.

It took forever to even get the guys at the desk to acknowledge me. They were changing shifts and it seemed like the night shift guy was being trained by the evening shift guy, whose ride was outside the main entrance with their music so loud the lobby desk was vibrating. We finally got checked in and headed up to the room. We were met in the hallway by several shady-looking people. Got to the 4th floor and as soon as the elevator doors opened we were hit with a wave of heat (seriously- 80 °) and the smell of cigarette smoke and marijuana. When we got to our room, the key didn’t work so I had to go back to the lobby to get that fixed. We finally got into the room- the carpet was dirty and worn; the chair and ottoman had a dirty cover over it (I was scared to lift it to see what it was covering); there was still trash around the room from the previous occupant; the shower was disgusting. The sheets on the bed did look clean and it was well-made. The TV worked, but was very unclear and had a red line running down the picture. Throughout the night we were woken by doors slamming and I swear I thought I heard someone trying to open our door at one point. (I had put a piece of furniture in front of the door cuz this place gave me the creeps!) When we went down in the morning to check out the “continental breakfast” we found more cereal on the counter than was in the dispensers and three slices of bread; plus a woman talking to two guys about turning tricks for $30.

I never did get to stay they wouldn’t let me check in I was in limbo for hours after driving hours for travel. The front desk staff was rude. Walked away while I was talking to him. Expedia called several times to get a refund or resolve with no response. I had to rebook a room after waiting hours with no response at another location and incurred more fees money’s spent. I spoke with 5 different people via chat this morning from 6am until 9:23am To say I’m unhappy is an understatement. My time wasted and disrespected wasn’t a part of my scheduled day. Not sure if I will be a customer any longer.

This hotel was not a good hotel. Appearance was below average with many things that needed to be fixed. Bathrooms in lobby were unavailable. Had a room on 2nd floor and elevator access was all the way down the hall. Temperature on 2nd floor was very hot in hallway. Room was OK but carpet was dirty and shower glass door was missing the handle so I didn't take a shower. There was only 1 cup for coffee and when I went to front desk to get more had to wait at least 15 min for attendant to return from another room even with ringing the bell multiple times.( 2 people were waiting to check in). The breakfast next morning was the worst I 've had at a hotel of this caliber with only bread, muffins, 2 cereals along coffee, juices and milk available. Muffins were out when I got there at 8 am and had to inform front desk. Breakfast time was 6:30 - 9:30 am. The one good thing was the bed was comfy and I slept well.
