“Convenient pleasant stay”

I had a great stay at the Franklin hotel, my only critique is how their breakfast is set up. I waited 15 mins to be seated, then gave up when i noticed no one at the tables had their breakfast or had even seen a server in the time i was waiting-definitely unsatisfactory for anyone in a hurry!

“Wonderful and Comfortable!!”

750 count sheets and a "pillow menu" is all I need to say!!!

“Loved it!”

The Franklin Hotel was wonderful. The beds were plush and so was the room. We highly recommend this hotel if you are staying in Chapel Hill!

“Perfect experience”

The Franklin was wonderful! The location cannot be beat. The room was large and completely comfortable. The complimentary breakfast was a delightful restaurant experience - not your typical complimentary breakfast.

“Two Day Stay at the Franklin”

Everything that is good about a boutique, I was very impressed with the Franklin. The front desk service was particularly impressive.

“Average”

This is a very nice hotel but the services are well below what should be provided from a hotel at this cost. There were no washclothes in the room. When we called to request them, we were told they were out and waiting for a shipment. Eventually we did get some. The toiletries were not restocked during our stay so we ran out of shampoo and conditioner. The walls are paper thin so we heard the person in the adjoining room talking on his phone until 3am on the first night we were there. The exercise room is in complete shambles - 4 of the 5 cardio machines were broken. When we complained about this, they were surprised. Doesn't anybody maintain or check on the equipment? Then we got sent to a gym where we were told we could work out for free. The people at the gym said that was not true. They said that they were unable to workout a contract with management at the hotel. The bottom line is if you want an average hotel experience then you should choose the Franklin. For us, we'll go back to the Carolina Inn which is slightly more expensive but provides much better service and quality for the money.

“Always one of our favaorites!”

Our only problem with this room was a leaky shower door. The front desk was willing to fix it immediately, but we asked them to wait until we checked out the next day. Breakfast was lovely and an added plus.
