We reserved this place sight unseen and when we pulled up it didn’t look at all like a cozy accommodation, but once inside we were quite impressed. Very spacious living room/bedroom combination, extra comfortable bed and sofa. The room is equipped with a small refrigerator and microwave.  The bathroom is pretty cool too, with corrugated metal walls to give the place a funky vibe. You are literally steps away from all the blues you can handle, so whether in town for a festival or just a weekend getaway I’d highly recommend checking this place out. Make sure you have a reservation!

Looks can be deceiving 

There aren’t a lot of hotels in Clarksdale, and most are lower end chains, so we found this place through Trip Advisor. This Inn offers just a couple rooms which were inside an old furniture store. From the outside it doesn’t look like much at all; some might find it scary. On the inside you’ll find a very large, nicely furnished room with an amazingly comfortable king bed, leather sofa and overstuffed chairs, tv, coffee pot, fridge and microwave. Ceramic floor tiles are nice and much cleaner than carpet. The bathroom was big with a nice shower. The walls are made to look rustic with corrugated metal and rough hewn wood. With the lights out, the room is very dark and quiet which made for a great night’s sleep. 

Best of all, the Bluestown Inn is a short walk to all of the wonderful attractions that downtown Clarksdale has to offer. Be sure to stop at Catheads and talk to Roger. He is the definitive resource for all the town has to offer. 

Great place to stay in Clarksdale 

We found the place to be tidy, clean and handy to the Ground Zero Club and Delta Blues Museum. It is at the edge of downtown so we were a bit worried about parking the rental car out front all night as it seemed a bit seedy, but we didn’t have any problems and there was an obvious police presence. We couldn’t use the coffee maker or microwave as their wasn’t any plates, utensils, coffee cups etc. The owner was very responsive when we called for the code to the door and then called again for the wifi pass. He probably would have sorted it if we hadn’t noticed late at night and didn’t want to bother him. Bring your own shampoo.

Tidy and Handy

Be prepared to feel lost once you find the place. There is no reception and you have to find the owner on his furniture store by the corner. Ok, only if you arrive before 6pm, otherwise you’ll have to call him.

It’s a big room, close to everything and with a comfortable bed. But far from a good place to relax. Door and windows go direct to the street, the AC is very noisy (waking me up every time it was on) and not that efficient. The bathroom is very small.

Overall, good location. Bad place to rest before continuing a road trip.

From the exterior the Bluestown Inn doesn't look much really, however  once inside we loved the quirkiness and uniqueness of the room. I think we stayed in the bigger unit A. We has everything we needed, the bed was very comfortable and everything was clean and tidy. The only issue I had was that there were no little milks in the fridge so I could make a cuppa (us English love their tea, especially in the morning!) There was a large tub of powdered milk but it was 4 years out of date.....I heated bottled water in the microwave for our tea, but a kettle would have been a bit better. It wasn't a major issue at all, we had black tea but a little milk or sachet of powdered milk would have been nice :-)

When we checked out we noticed that our car had a puncture and so we enquired with the owner where we could get it sorted. He sent out his business partner (as he was out of town at the time) and he arranged for it to be taken away by a local guy who does their vehicles. It was picked up within 20 minutes and taken away, only an hour later it was dropped back off with a new tyre!!! You think this is helpful, well wait until you hear the rest.....when we sent to settle up with owner who was going to pass the cash over to his mates at the garage, he said don't worry about it, I will pay for it & covered the cost for us! What a fantastic guy, the charm of the southerners!.....would definitely recommend!!!! :-)
