We had a delightful trip to Franklin in large part because of the clean and convenient stay at this location. The owners are fabulous folks, very accommodating and nice. It is an easy walk down historic Main Street to downtown (less than a mile). The walk takes you past some of the most beautiful and historic homes in Franklin, so each trip was enjoyable. Highly recommend!
