Property has trailer parking off site, they have staff to take you and your luggage to and from the parking lot which was very nice. Our room was on the 2nd floor, elevator was quick. The bedroom window looked right out onto the veranda bar which was a little surprising for any privacy but it was honestly fine, just surprising lol

The staff was wonderful. We stayed at the Franklin before and so had very low expectations but it was cheap. Not clean. Light came between AC and window sill. Windows so dirty. Carpet was dirty.

The room smelled of mothballs and the carpet was stained all over. Hot water was so inconsistent we could not shower without freezing or scalding. Massive amounts of paint/enamel was missing all over the tub and sink.

This historic hotel is all about location and gambling. Our "suite" was dingy, had mold growing in the bathroom, a SUPER loud a/c unit, and no fridge. We requested a fridge because we had a medication that had to be refrigerated and they charged us an extra fee per day. The beds were bouncy and collapsed in the center and I was uncomfortable with the idea of sitting on the carpet. If you plan on spending all your time in the casino or across the street at Outlaw Square, then this location can not be beat. We found our stay so unpleasant we elected to leave a day early (and they didn't credit our bill).

Starting to decrease in quality
The room was clean. Not immaculate, but good. The problem was shades didn't cover the whole window so it didn't get dark at night. And there was a crazy amount of noise! Not good when you are trying to sleep. We use to love it there but it seems to be going down hill. Too bad!

The property is in desperate need of renovation, which is in the planning stage. My only other hit is the housekeeping. We put out the placard to get maid service 2 days in a row, but never got any service.

The historic hotel is really a poker machine casino. The hotel has a small waiting area upon entering, otherwise machines. Queen bed was stained and unmade. Called front desk, a set of single bed sheets was delivered. The restaurant is recommended and saved the day.
