Nice place, good location with a good breakfast
Pros:

Easy freeway access and close to attractions and eateries

The room had a strange odor when we came in, but went away after leaving the door open. I didn’t notice, but my wife did.

A good overnight stop, probably a good value for the area.
Pros:

I really liked how friendly the staff was, I'm not a fan of motels (or where rooms are accessed from the outside) but it was well kept, well clean and had everything we needed.

Our stay was not relaxing or restful at all!!
Pros:

There was a musty smell!! The floor was sticky if you tried walking on it with barefeet!! The tv would not turn on with the remote only the button on the tv itself. The breakfast was ok nothing to rave about!! Also the room was small not much space to move around. Not a good value for what we paid!!

Cons:

Everything but location!!

Not for us.
Pros:

This property is a shirt 5 mins drive to the centre of Franklin and the restaurants around the hotel are incredible. Dunkin donuts it’s next door.

The room was a good size and had all basic amenities.

Cons:

This property need la an overhaul. There was a damp smell in the room so I bought Fabreeze to try and help with that. The room was super old, worn floor, paint cracking, it just looks worn out.

Staff were not the friendliest of people. Just seemed bored with the job and that came across in our interaction.

Solo para una noche esta bien!
Pros:

Estaba de camino, la habitacion y baño limpio y con lo necesario, hubo ciertos detalles que pudieron ser mejor pero para pasar la noche estuvo bien!

Cons:

La habitacion muy pequeña. La cama para mi fue demasiado suave y por alguna razon amanecí con demasiado dolor de espalda. No me gustó que antes de la hora del checkout fueron 2 veces a ver si ya nos habíamos ido y apenas nos estabamos alistando. Ademas solo habia una toalla de cuerpo grande y una mediana que usó mi esposo. Deberian ser 2 de cada una (mínimo) mas las pequeñas de mano y cara que si estaban bien.

The room smelled musty, but seemed to dissipate over time.
