My girlfriend and I booked our anniversary at this hotel. The room was very spacious and clean, and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. My one complaint is there was a fair amount of noise from furniture being moved throughout the morning above our room making it difficult to sleep in the early AM, but otherwise had a tremendous experience.

Our room was perfect for our stay. The bed was very comfortable, the room was clean and well appointed. The kitchen was well supplied and the couch and table were put to good use. Franklin Guesthouse was very close to the person we were visiting, we walked to restaurants and grocery stores. Very convenient! And a big bonus, friendly staff! Will definitely stay here again.

Franklin Guesthouse is hands-down the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in NYC. Spacious, modern suites with gorgeous bathrooms and full kitchens. The staff (special shout-out to Valentina, Melanie, and Carlos) treat you like family. Safe neighborhood, great restaurants nearby, and the subway just a block away. Bonus: 24-hour sauna! I left heartbroken to go home—this place is perfect. If Franklin is booked, check their sister property The Box House Hotel. Otherwise, don’t waste your time looking elsewhere.

This is the place to stay....

This hotel offers the largest rooms with a kitchen for the money in NYC. Get one of the suites with the patio. Go to Madre downstairs for an excellent brunch. Highly recommend the french toast.

My daughter had surgery and the staff was very helpful. They extended our stay without moving us from our room. Helped tremendously. They honored our request to have big windows with sunlight etc. This was my third stay and will definitely stay again!
