Took a while to check in but lady pleasant. A few rules & regulations to read. Room was ok and had 2 comfortable beds. Fridge/microwave but NO coffee maker although you could get coffee I think in reception. Same for breakfast - coffee/ cereals/cakes & croissants. Only had one night stay on route so didn't get to see surrounding area although Franklin looked nice & think a fair bit to do. Would recommend though.
