Ramada Franklin TN

The hotel is in the middle of nowhere. After parking I noticed a horrible smell that honestly smelled like wild animals. I look over at their dumpster to discover a half dozen raccoons crawling out of the top of it, hence the smell. Next to the parking there is a creepy cemetary, that hasn't had any up keep in decades. The "newest" grave marker was […] early 1800's. It honestly makes the hotel look rather trashy. Had problems using the door key. Several times. There is no "trick" I can share with you. You just have to keep trying the key over and over again. There so called "wireless" internet only works in the lobby. You can connect to there network in your room, but you won't be able to get access. Told the staff several times I could not connect and got the same story "it just started having problems this week". It wasn't until after that I read a review on this hotel that was over a month old and that person had the same issue that I did. Breakfast was horrible. Selection was bland and the milk was sour. I'd rather sleep in my car than stay at this hotel again. Read more

It all started with a cemetery in the front of the hotel, we thought it might be an interesting night. The gentleman at the front desk was very nice. The rooms are old and need some remodeling. After removing the comforter, as I do in any room that still uses full comforters, there was a blanket that was wrinkled and thin and was too small for the bed, […] reminded me of an old camping blanket. After turning down the sheets to go to sleep I noticed the sheets were horribly stained. I wasn't sure if the sheets were even clean. Unfortunately it was late and instead of calling the front desk I chose to sleep in the other bed with my daughter. Lastly, while watching tv the screen became fuzzy with lines running through the picture. My daughter got out of bed and said "watch I bet if I hit the side of the tv it will be better" and that is exactly what happened. We both laughed at the whole experience and decided we would not return to this hotel again. There are so many other hotels in the area, skip this one. Read more

I spent four nights at this hotel and was quite pleased with my experience. The internet was down 3 of the 4 days, which made things a bit tough since I do a lot of online work. However, the hotel staff worked diligently to resolve it. They were very nice and I would definitely stay there again.

I have stayed at this hotel previously and it is in decline due to age. It needs some freshening up and would continue to be a fine hotel.

We loved our stay here. It is off the freeway and near a very very old and tiny cemetery. A newer neighborhood is situated just up the road. So yes, it is quiet! :-) The breakfast was the standard continental fare with two waffle makers as well as biscuits and gravy for guests who made it down before 9 A.M. Front office staff was always very nice and […] helpful. Basic hotel that I would bring my family back to. Read more

Filled all of my criteria: clean, comfortable, free good breakfast, free wireless, safe neighborhood, helpful folks behind the desk, very close drive to my conference and still within 5-10 minutes of the businesses of Franklin.

The night staff was extremely friendly and the room was sufficient.. the free breakfast was pretty weak however, and it was REALLY crowded with guests, wasn't very comfortable...

I stayed at this hotel for a conference at another hotel down the road that was trying to charge more than triple the price. The lady who checked me in was not the most pleasant--she wasn't rude or anything but she looked like she didn't really want to be there--never smiled, but was efficient at checking me in. The room where the elevator was smelled […] a little musty, but everything appeared clean. My room was clean as a whistle when I got to it, and was quiet. The housekeeper(s) tidied up the room daily and replenished the coffee and towels that I used. Each day when I came down to either leave or get something from the breakfast bar, the morning guest services staff greeted me and were very pleasant and smiling. The breakfast bar certainly needs improvement, but I wasn't paying for breakfast--I was paying for a decent night's sleep, quiet, and a good shower. All in all, I think this hotel was a good deal for the price. I have worked in the hospitality business before at several different hotels, so I know a thing or two about how a hotel is supposed to be run and also how harsh guests can be. If the annual conference is in Franklin again next year, I will probably stay here again because the price couldn't really be beat. Read more

Very convenient for a stop travelling north on I-65.

The staff were very frieindly and accomodating. Close to the interstate which made our daily travel easy.

Thsi hotel is sadly in need of a wall to wall renovation. They clean every day but there is ground in deep down dirt in all the furniture, the carpet etc. The breakfast was generally poor in quality, however I heard good reviews on the waffles. I tried a doughnut -it was so soggy it was inedible, I also woke my second morning with a large insect bite […] on my leg which is now burning and seeping. Another person in our group also had a similiar bite. I wouldn't recommend anyone stay here. Read more

The front desk staff were great, very attentive and friendly. We never had our rooms cleaned or didn't get fresh towels. Didn't care about sheets and the like, but would have been nice if the wastebaskets had been emptied as they overflowed, and I like clean towels, taking 4 showers with the same towel is not my idea of a good place. The cleaning people […] let the rest of the folks down. It is an excellent value, I could have called and I'm sure they would have brough towels, but didn't. Read more

Hotel is convenient to Interstate, Nashville and shopping. Friendly employees, clean and large rooms. Breakfast was satisfactory. Would stay there again.

I really love this hotel! Its nothing fancy by any means. However, for me and my husband its in a very convenient place to stay. We have friends that live about 20 min south of the hotel, but we spend most of our time in Nashville, about 15-20 north. We will continue choosing this hotel every time we stay in the Franklin area. Also the staff has always […] been great when we have stayed there. Always greeting us when we arrive or saying bye as we leave for the day. Can't beat the rates either. Read more

What I expected and what I received was not at all the service and comfort I've always received from a Ramada Hotel. Poor condition of room and smelly. Seems they let things go and don't bother with inprovements or even cleanliness. Carpeting has holes and was dirty. Room smelled, especially the bathroom (like the sewer was backed up) Bed spreads had […] yellow stains. YUCK ! NEVER - EVER AGAIN ! Read more

The staff was very helpful and check in went smoothly. No problems. The rooms were clean, but beds were really hard. The breakfast was ok. If you want a good inexpensive hotel, I would recommend this hotel.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It meets our basic needs at a reasonable internet rate when we are in that area. It is especially quiet since it is a mile from the interstate. Furnishings are worn but clean.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Hotel was clean, great location! Staff was friendly when directly asked a question. If not asked, did not even great me when I went in and out.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Hotel is fine, bit musty from the humidity of the region but that is to be expected. Room was clean and bed was comfortable, breakfast leaves a bit to be desired but fits the bill.

Genuine Expedia guest review

I liked that the hotel was off the road - there was no noise from highway. The breakfast was not so good - the gravy tasted like the salt shaker (or box) had been dropped in it. Fruit was a few dried up oranges and tiny apples. Enjoyed browsing the cemetery nearby - dates on the stones were very old.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Bottom line, great hotel for the price. Friendly personell and close to everything.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Probably the poorest breakfast buffet I have ever encountered. Occupancy rate was low while we were there yet their own website showed no rooms available when we attempted to book online.

Service at the front desk was fast and friendly. Rooms was clean, quite and comfortable, room was warm on arrival. Hallways and elevator was very warm

This is a totally ok hotel, if you want a cheap hotel you can't go wrong. It's clean and has quite spacious rooms with comfortable beds. The only negativ was the smell in our room, kind of a dampy smell but we only stayed 2 nights and got used to it... And forget about the old graveyard if you're not interested in history, then you should check it  […] out! Read more
