    Makeup Remover

    This was an amazing place to stay! My train dropped me off super early at 6:30am and the staff was kind enough to hold my luggage. I came back to the hotel around noon and they had a room that they allowed me to check into early. The lobby area is a great hangout spot complete with a coffee bar, a full bar, free pin ball, a record player, couches, and the friendly staff of course. My room was beautifully made up, super modern and cute. They even had complimentary makeup remover in the bathroom. My room also came with a pink banjo which I thought was really cool and I did take time to try to play. Room service came in after my second night and cleaned the room and brought new towels. Moxy is a 10 minute walk from Beale street. The street Moxy is located on (Main) also has its fair share of things to do such as bars, cafes, eateries, etc. Memphis riverboat tours are an 8 minute walk away as well. The back patio was also a cute spot to sit at night. 10/10 would recommend

    In a safe, convenient, well-lit court of hotels. I lucked out and got good onsite parking, but there are a couple of nearby parking garages as well. I've stayed at several moxy hotels and this one is on brand. Hip, open, fun common spaces. The bar area here is a little crowded and merged with the check-in desk, but that's ok. Functions just fine. The check in staff (I think he said he name was Mac, but I could have made that up--it was late) was fantastic. Fun, energetic, dressed in sparkles. Perfect welcome I needed after a long drive. Room is standard style, and based on being functional, but I reserved a corner room, so more space. As with all Marriott hotels, streaming offered on site. My room was on the courtyard side, so quiet at night. Blackout curtains aren't great, but I travel with a sleep mask anyway. Recommended spot. Just a mile or two from all the attractions and near restaurants.

    I would have that the moxy by Marriott was a safe bet in Memphis... nope! It was horrible from the second I pulled in. Even though they share a huge parking lot with 4 different hotels, all they offer is valet. So I pulled up at 1145pm and the only one to greet me was a security officer. I asked where the valet was and he had no idea The door to the front desk was locked so I had to wait for the valet, 15 minutes So he let me in and I had to wait another 10 minutes for the front desk attendant. The usually cool and vibey hotel was dirty and the maintenance was awful The room was not taken car of, paint was peeling and almost all of the soap and shampoo was empty.

    Came here for an overnight stay while in Memphis. The hotel was clean and had lots of personality in the decor. However, the hotel does not have a restaurant so you can only get food from the grab and go fridge. Also, the bar closes at 11pm which seems really early especially for a Saturday. While I was content, this is not a hotel that I would willingly choose again. I'd prefer somewhere with larger rooms and more amenities.

    after you check in, you get a complimentary drink! so far so good. * the place is more modern which is cute. * free coffee in the morning. * free earplugs by the elevator. * security was always in front so that was nice.

    This is a tough review to write as I have some five star feelings and some 1 star feelings. I am starting with the positive. - GREAT location - Super cool and funky vibe in common areas and rooms - CLEAN, I saw employees tirelessly cleaning and wiping down common areas Sleep quality was good, pillows amazing - MOST staff friendly, welcoming and helpful! - complimentary coffee downstairs in the AM Here are my not so positive feelings: - Room small, although space maximized 313 base fee is high. - Booked two rooms, they added 25 x 2 nights on each room for parking when we had no vehicle? I informed upon checkin there were no vehicles and it seemed slippery they would do this on BOTH rooms for an extra 100 bucks (they did pull it off, thankfully I was paying attention) - One of the staff, tall young lady with long brown hair who worked the bar... always seemed annoyed that guests wanted drinks or information and she was Sort of polite, but rude at the same time on a couple occasions. Our last night there she literally sent another employee over to do our drinks after blowing us off and walking away ... it was super weird. - free drink coupon(s) are good for the three moxy happy hour cocktails which are prefabricated so not much alcohol. We ordered the Moxy Mule the first afternoon and the same employee referenced above told us we could NOT use the coupon on that drink, but she would give us a 2 dollar discount. THEN the next day the main guy at the front desk area got our drinks and said that drink WAS included. It felt as though she was trying to pull something shady with us. - wasted peeps outside at their tables late at night who were likely not guests... they do keep doors locked to guests only though. I would probably stay here again, if the room price were a bit lower and I never had to see that one employee again.

    A++ I arrived after only being open for a two days, so there were a few kinks to work out; but over all, great experience. The the minute you walk in, you know it will be a positive experience. Friendly staff, clever check-in desk, and pinball in the lobby.

    Fun Memphis inspired reminder to wash hands and mask up

    Hip, fun venue with great rooms. Our king sized bed room was cool for our 2 night stay. A lot of abstract, eclectic decor. You'll check in at full service bar, get complimentary cocktails, great views of downtown Memphis, and the trolley car. A lot of good photo ops - from grass in the elevator to banjos in most rooms. Fun fun fun at a reasonable price. We enjoyed the outdoor seating. CoVid: automated announcements to mask up, sanitation stations, free masks and cleaning crews. Every elevator has a bucket of ear plugs... what's that about? Not sure. .

    Cigar box banjo

    Wow Wow Wow The service here at the Moxy was amazing. My night was filled with amazing people Going above and beyond to make my stay memorable! Terica, Morgan, and Matt ensured I had fun, and I was well taken care of. They even gave me bug spray for those Memphis Mosquitoes that just wouldn't leave me alone. My favorite employee was Bill the engineer. He helped me fix my AC unit in record time. My room was cool and relaxing, because of Bills quick support. He even went above and beyond to give me a book on how to play the cigar box banjo in my room for practice. Thank you Moxy. Be back soon!

    Pinball machines in the lobby.. Game night anyone? There is also a giant  connect 4 game.

    I have been watching them renovate this building for a while now and it is finally open. It is so cute and trendy definitely a great break from the norm and perfect place for a weekend staycation. The staff was friendly. The service was fast, and the food was delicious. They also have outdoor firepits. I will surely be back soon.

    Blood stain on curtains

    Excellent customer service and location. The rooms need work. Curtains had blood stains all over them, rug was filthy, toilet seat was broken, sheets were dirty and shower was full of mold. In the reviews they discussed the elevator being broken and it is still broken. Housekeeping and guest use the same elevator. Will not return. If Courtyard had available rooms I would have switched.

    The room was awesome too, a huge tv, two double beds, beautiful bathroom, and we had a record player and old style phone in our room.

    It pains me to have to leave this review. I came here once before several months ago and was very…read moreimpressed. I had a fantastic espresso martini and the best brussel sprouts I've ever tasted! So I was excited to come try something else. On the plus side, the bathroom was so nicely decorated. It was also very clean. I sat at the end of the bar, beside the little section of books. The bartender was nice. I ordered the Ember&Passion cocktail. Although it was pretty good, it was quite mild. Unexpected with the ingredients in it. I was surprised that the level of expected heat was not very detectable. I give it 7/10. When I came here before in the winter, the temperature was perfect and I don't remember being too bothered that they don't have cocktail napkins. But yesterday it was quite warm in the restaurant and not having these napkins wasn't good. Nobody in the restaurant had any type of napkin under any drink! I noticed that just like mine, every glass of water from every patron had a puddle of condensation under the glass. Each time I picked up my glass of water, it would drip onto my food and clothes. My two menus got so wet. I suppose they made this decision to save themselves a lot of money. As for the food: My parmesan truffle fries were excellent!! Hot, crispy on the outside and perfectly cooked in the middle. Best I've had in a long time. The Alabama white sauce on the side was just your typical sauce. It tasted just like every other Alabama white sauce that I've had so was not disappointing. But I actually ended up not using it because it was too thin and it didn't add anything to the fries. The fries were excellent enough on their own. I ordered my burger "pink" but there wasn't any pink to it, but I wasn't that bothered about it. Burger and the toppings were tasty, except for the fried green tomato. Looking closely at the picture, you can see that it was SO SMALL compared to the size of the burger. When a restaurant does that, don't they realize that it makes for a glaring disappointment?! It apparently came from near the end of the tomato, and not the middle. If you are going to offer a fried green tomato on a burger, then I feel as if you should only use the larger slices of the tomato, and save the smaller ends for maybe putting in salads. I've always been obsessed with fried green tomatoes. After having my first two bites of burger and still not reaching the tomato, I took it off to eat by itself. Sadly, it tasted terrible! I was surprised. Obviously, they didn't season the tomato or the batter. (Salt and pepper go a long way.) The burger toppings apparently made the tomato batter not only soggy, but also this strange thick texture. Like mushy and chewy at the same time. 1/10 Worst problem: FLIES!!! So many flies! When I just had my drink but no food yet, I noticed them but was not bombarded by them at that point. It wasn't until my food came. All of a sudden I was literally surrounded by them. They were everywhere! No exaggeration. I actually had to use only one hand to eat and the other hand to constantly move back and forth over my food. I eventually gave up and set the plate of some of my fries about 4 inches in front of my burger in order to hopefully draw the flies to the fries so that I could eat my burger. Unfortunately, after only four bites of my burger, when I set it down to take a drink of water, a fly landed on it within one second. Obviously, that was my last bite, and even when I was moving the plate closer to the end of the counter, two more flies landed on it. The glass of straws was inches from me. That, and the book closest to me seemed to be where they gathered to wait for their opportunity to dive bomb me. So many of them! It turned my stomach when I realized that I had been drinking from a straw with my water and I'm sure there had been flies on it before I got there. Every person that gets a straw in their drink at this restaurant has had a fly sitting on top of it. When the bartender told me about the desserts, it turned my stomach to think of just how many flies were in the kitchen. Had I known the fly situation was that bad when I first got my drink, I would have never stayed there, and I certainly would have never ordered food. I do think it is a real shame because the winter months are a totally different experience in that restaurant. But because of how horrible it was this time, I just can't ever come back.

Went with my mother and sister while we were staying nearby attending a wedding party in Bartlett. Read about Catherine and Mary's online and decided to give it a shot based on pics and reviews. As soon as we stepped inside we were warmly greeted and made to feel at home. I must say here that my sister has a small disorder such that it's hard for her to talk in complete sentences, and she has a notable stutter. This means she also experiences a great deal of social anxiety. She felt so welcomed that she hardly stuttered while we were there, and when we left she said, "This was such a good place for people like me." I loved that they made me and my mom welcome, but am doubly grateful that you went out of your way to make my sister so happy. She really felt like you treated her like an old friend. My sister has a speech problem, but she's not mentally disabled (in fact she's an electrical engineer). So the kindness was not lost on her, and I know this will be a place we'll look forward to when we visit family in the Memphis area. Thank you so much for the excellent food and the awesome vibes!

They have pasta dishes, as expected, but with a twist, much like their noodles. (Pun intended.) We started with a charcuterie board. There are three selections: meat and cheese, just cheese, or just meat. We opted for meat and cheese. Presentation was elegant. Taste was good. Preference for us was more on the mild side. Some of the cheeses a bit earthy.

We also really liked the decor inside the restaurant, but this time we actually dined on the patio, which made for a nice change of pace So we ordered the wings, and they absolutely delicious --we liked them so much we ordered a second round. The crawfish dumplings were also solid, but the wings were the standout of the meal. We also tried the Bake MF Margarita, which I expected to taste like tea, but it's actually a refreshing peach-flavored margarita. At about $22, it's generously sized for two people and definitely worth trying. Our server, Mason, was very nice and made great selections for us. Overall, I'm giving Good Fortune Company (4/5). The only reason it wasn't a perfect score was the missing Slap Noodles. Even so, I'd happily return and hope to try them next time. Next time im ordering Ramen!
