I was in Franklin for a couple nights in between travel. Itโs a beautiful little town. Location was super convenient to highways. Staff was friendly and helpful. Updates on the horizon but it was clean, quiet and comfortable. I will stay again if I find my way in this neck of the woods again.

Room was clean and decently maintained/updated. However there were flies everywhere in the room to the point we did not use any of the towels or shower or anything in the room. If flies were not there I would give it a 4 stars, as everything was good not exceptional.
Also pet fees for conditions of rooms are a bit high if you have a pet, more than the $30 their website says.

DO NOT BOOK!!! Absolute garbage fire of a stay. Booked same day because our travel plans changed and we needed somewhere cheap. We werenโt able to arrive until 10pm. Itโs my acct but I donโt have a debit card currently, so my mother came inside to pay with hers. First the jerk at check in gave us soooo much trouble. Rolling his eyes, scoffing and saying he wishes he couldโve canceled our reservation before we got there!! He tried to talk us out of the booking even!! He kept pressing the question about if we had pets with us, which we didnโtโฆ just because I had a โdog momโ shirt on. He kept snidely saying that weโd โbetter tell him now or he will charge us for everything he canโ. Itโs 1030pm and I just want to sleep!! Finally we got to the room and were shockedโฆ the door is a residential lock and key and the A/C unit didnโt work properly. The whole room was dirty and grimy. Then as Iโm taking a shower, TWO ROACHES came up thru the drain!!!! Awful and disgustingโฆ please pay the extra $15-20 to stay somewhere else!!!

At check-in, they charged me almost $7 more than the hotels.com app had said. When I complained, she seemed angry and told me that the app doesnโt put in tax, so they add that in. I later pulled up the email that detailed the room cost plus tax, and showed it to her. She refunded the extra money, but the whole experience seemed sketchy. I wonโt be back.

I do not leave reviews normally and understand that I chose a cheap hotel while I was in the area, but I chose it by the reviews that had been left.
This is the nastiest place I have ever stayed at.
My feet got dirty on the laminate flooring in the main room after showering.
When I got the bathroom floor wet after my shower I attempted to wipe up the water and made mud!! The kind gentleman who is running the place claimed he had staffing issues recentlyโฆ the nasty had been building over a long period of time. I suggested a spring cleaning to go with the excuses that were offered.
Please if you do decide to stay, check the room before you pay! Good luck

Price and location were right. The room needs a dehumidifier. The clean towels felt damp. My jacket as well when I put it on in the morning.

A budget hotel with large rooms and comfortable beds. Refrigerator. Needs more outlets and poor wifi.

I could not check in. I called the number at the window, and it kept going to a busy signal. I knocked. Waited 5 minutes and kept calling, same busy signal. It wasn't fun having to find a different hotel at 10:45PM. I hope I don't get charged.

Room wasn't quite ready when I arrived, but manager was SUPER friendly and it was ready in minutes. It may not be a Hilton, but for the price, you can't really beat it. A simple, no-frills room for a night.

Interesting property. Seems to cater to hikers in the area. They had a Friday night karaoke event for charities, and it was alternately execrable and excellent (as karaoke often is). Best version of "The Prayer" that Chris and I have ever heard.
The owner was quite friendly on check in, and fine during subsequent encounters.
Be advised, this is a family operation, and if the family goes to eat in town, your phone calls to the desk will go unanswered. We had an oil stained sheet, on check in, that we wanted to be replaced, and they weren't there. But they fixed it that night.
But otherwise, a good place to stay. Overall enjoyed it.

Their website says pets welcome but doesn't state there is an additional fee of $10 dollars per pet per day. The toilet was not secured to the floor. It rocked when sat on. There was no extra toilet paper in the room. Had to ask for it.

I enjoyed the area around the property. As for the staff everyone was pleasant except for the wife she verbally berated me for finding a good deal on their rooms and then put me in the what I believe to be the worst room they had. The sheets were not washed, the plumbing was horrible, and the air conditioner did not work correctly. All in all, this place is not worth staying at.

Manager was very helpful, very considerate, but this hotel is really long in the tooth. The air conditioner didnโt work old fashion keys, which make locking the door difficult no room coffee pot. Everything was in very tough shape. Surprisingly the bedding was an excellent condition but that was the only redeeming factor.
