I usually expect a comfortable and relaxing stay when I book with Best Western, but unfortunately, my experience at the Franklin Square Inn was far from pleasant. First, the HVAC unit in my room was extremely noisy—every time it turned on, it sounded like a small airplane revving up. It was impossible to get a good night's sleep with that constant noise. To make matters worse, both the shower and sink were clogged. The water barely drained, leaving me standing in a pool of water while showering, which was really off-putting. I reported these issues to the front desk, but nothing was done during my stay to resolve them. I was really hoping for a more comfortable experience, especially given the price, but I won’t be returning to this location. If you're looking for a peaceful and hassle-free stay, I’d recommend looking elsewhere.

Stayed here for my wedding. Elevator was broken but staff helped with our bags to the top floor and they were very friendly and helpful. Clean hotel room, great free breakfast with a cool pancake machine. I would stay here again. Very close to walk anywhere you would like for food drinks etc. if you’re here on a Saturday perfect spot to stay and go to the Troy’s farmers market.
