Beautiful old house with lots of charm. The host, Paul, was extremely accommodating and went out of his way to make sure that our stay was comfortable. The rooms were well setup and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and adjusted as necessary. Will stay here again when in Franklin.

We loved that the property was close to town but very quiet. There’s a wonderful view of the mountains from the second floor wrap around porch. It’s a quaint establishment with some history. We enjoyed two outstanding breakfasts. Paul is a gracious, friendly and knowledgeable host.

Iffy way to escape fire. Cushions on porches dusty and dirty. Very old building in need of maintenance. Part of floor rotted in bathroom. Very small shower. Innkeeper nice, but failed to bring extra towels when requested. Breakfast good. Mattress hard.

The whole stay was splendid. Paul is a wonderful host, a phenomenal cook, and a kind person. Our room was beautifully decorated, and the shower was a huge bonus to me. I love a piping hot shower, and detachable faucet so that I don’t have to get my hair wet or humid. Hardly any place has that! Our room did! The house has an interesting history, and I love the fragrance as you walk in. Like years of good breakfasts with bacon and coffee, nice furniture polish and books. It will be our go-to place in Franklin to stay!

Charming old-style inn with a nice hot breakfast. Friendly staff that went out of their way to help move our booking to another room when the cabin A/C went out a day before we arrived. We only stayed for a night, but we would definitely stay here again next time we are in Franklin!

Disliked: Amenities
Paul was a very nice host. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was very nice. We stayed in the cottage house and it was a pretty tight space. Breakfast was the exact same offerings every morning with a variation on the breakfast bread. It's served buffet style and the eggs and hash browns were very "institutional." There was no room cleaning or new towels during our stay. Overall, it was adequate and met our needs, but not anything special.

The host and service and cleanliness, the beauty, the fantastic antiques, the delicious included breakfast, the historical significance, and ambiance of this unique bed and breakfast could not be better. Why stay in a motel with no character and cold atmosphere when you can have the Franklin Terrance bed and breakfast!

It was old house and I understand that they need constant maintenance. The owner of the house was out of town and left only one employee to run the place, which she did graciously. Given that is was a holiday weekend, and it appeared to be a full house, the owner should have picked another weekend to be out of town.

The management was in desperate need of additional staff. It is a lovely, very old bldg but needed some serious cleaning and mtc. Breakfast very well prepared. Very enjoyable recounting of the history. Allergies to dust, cant go back.
