Econo Lodge Franklin

Good place just to crash for a couple nights. But you definitely get what you pay for! I will say that the staff was nice and welcoming but the place itself inside and outside was sketchy and dirty. Hair on the beds, stains on the blankets, holes in the walls (covered by a wash rag) stains on the walls, expired leftover food in the mini fridge, lots of stomping on the above floor, and the smell of mold. The younger locals we met in Columbus questioned why we were staying there and that the neighborhood/other hotels/motels surrounding the Econo Lodge are bad news, full of drugs, crime, and CPS involvement.

The room was very dirty, there was a dirty spot in the wall by the window that was brown and looked like blood. There were spider and roaches, the bathroom wall by the toilet was covered in what looked like splattered poop. The floors in the hallway would make a crunching sound when walked on and your shoes were left sticky afterwards. The entrance door to for the side of the building was broken and would not latch. House keeping was asked to clean the walls and mirrors and did not. It is on the cheaper side but not worth the money.

Parking lot needs repairs.

The property was more ran a a low income apartment not a hotel. Police presents each day there

Not bad, was a bit frustrated with the cash deposit thing cause it was late traveling with a little one but the property manager needs to protect their interests as well so I get it. Everything went smoothly and we were back on the road well rested. I actually slept really well.

Staff was very helpful but room didn't have trash emptied, floor wasn't swept and tub wasn't cleaned

Staff was friendly, but they sprang wanting a 100 dollar CASH deposit, which i said no, and they insisted on putting one on a card.

Showed them a photo of the door (room 228) hadknocked into the wall tnat had obviously been there a while,judt to make sure they didnt charge me for it.

Surface areas and bed clean, but tbe bathtub had a lot of rust stains and ehat looked like black spots thats didnt hand ruboff.. and tbe air vents on the room HVAC was dirty as hell, maybe even pre-mold? Made noise all nigjt as well.

And whats with the largest towels they provide being so small??

No elevator, no continental brekafast (only coffee).

Will NOT stay here again.

The place is very run down and smelled terrible. No breakfast available. Lots of foot traffic and doors closing through the night.

Amazingly enough... the room was clean and smelled fresh. The bed was comfortable and there was hot showers 😆

They demanded a $100 CASH deposit instead of the usual use of a credit card on file. No hair dryer. The fitted sheet wouldn’t stay on the mattress and there was no mattress topper. No working ice machine either.

This was by far uncomfortable scary surroundings and one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had. The room was dirty the chair my husband sit in almost fell over because a wheel was missing I definitely WOULD NOT recommend this to anyone

They had a fire in their dumpster, shady people sit outside staring all the time

My tub faucet was seriously leaking and had been doing it for a long time based on all the mildew, but the hotel was booked for race weekend so I threw a towel down and showered on that. This property and the ones next to it are run down and attract a lot of sketchy folks who like to hang out in the parking lot all hours of the day and night. I spent the minimum amount of time here and would not rent this place for anything more than an overnight crash.

They are friendly and willing to help if you need the first floor or a kid friendly room. Stop through here monthly always same good service. Relaxed atmosphere.

The staff was really nice. I had no shower curtain. I had to go ask for one after I took a shower because I didn’t realize it when I got into the shower. There was a water drip in the bathtub and the only way you didn’t hear it is if you kept the fan on in the bathroom. The door knob in the bathroom almost fell off. The side door outside could not be locked so it was open for anyone to come in to the hotel. The towels were very hard and had stains on them. The staff did offer to change rooms because of the water drip, but we had already been there a day so I declined. There was no hairdryer in the room, but I did go down and asked for one and they gave me one. Overall, the staff was very nice, but the hotel needs a lot of updating and it doesn’t look good on the outside and on the inside. Very loud and people hang big outside of hotel and hotel next door didn’t feel very safe

Staff was kind and courteous, comfortable bed and good coffee.

Hotel seem kind of rundown on the outside room was okay when I was checked in staff was very friendly I didn't think it was up to normal Standers of the econo Lodge's I have stayed at

Front desk rep was kind. She stated there was no breakfast option since Covid and explained they had worked on taking that down online as an option. We specifically chose this hotel with breakfast being an option. Too thin of walls with kiddos. Still has old tethered sign up with another hotel name. Not sure if this is an adjoining hotel or what.

Receptionist was nice.
Easy check-in and check-out.
Front desk area was clean and neat.
Toilet did not flush, had to fill a bucket to flush it.
Bathroom door handle was broken.
Shower had hot water and good pressure.
Bed sheets had stains on them.

The property was close to the interstate but not well marked with signage.
