Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Took a while to check in but lady pleasant. A few rules & regulations to read. Room was ok and had 2 comfortable beds. Fridge/microwave but NO coffee maker although you could get coffee I think in reception. Same for breakfast - coffee/ cereals/cakes & croissants. Only had one night stay on route so didn't get to see surrounding area although Franklin looked nice & think a fair bit to do. Would recommend though.

Very clean & comfortable. Check in was difficult since person checking us in didn’t understand English very well & had to call someone else to speak with me. Breakfast was well laid out and good selection but only 2 upholstered chairs to sit in with no table.
