I didn't expect it, but since I had the windows open for the duration of my stay, I always got to hear the Muslim pre-dawn and evening call to prayers. I am not of that faith, but I still found it a highlight of each day. I also really like the extra large tub. I'm pretty big and haven't fit in a US standard tub in decades, so this was a real treat. If only it was located somewhere with more nearby dining options. Or maybe if I had my own vehicle and could buy groceries more easily. ##### James Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Gareth Jan 21, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication This is a horrible place the area it's self is extremely unsafe the service of the place is almost none existent, and there was no power to the area and accommodation. ##### Gareth Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maureen Nov 7, 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities This is a beautiful unit in a neighborhood where white people cannot safely walk. That is not my opinion-the desk clerk escorted us to the grocery and back, made sure our Uber was in front before we left the lobby, etc. The area is not rundown. I was sad that our visit was altered by this circumstance. ##### Maureen Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Samuel Nov 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication ##### Samuel Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Salvador Aug 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication ##### Salvador Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Francius Dec 28, 2022 ##### Francius ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ulrike Mar 23, 2020 Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort ##### Ulrike Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 12, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful room with a beautiful view!

Fully equipped kitchen. Nice size TV less than premium channels...mid tier DSTV package. Very good wifi. Staff is very accomodating. I had one issue with neighbor who loudly disturbed the whole floor for 3 consecutive nights. They should have been evicted or police called because they ignored repeated warnings. But staff did move us to another floor. But sadly after the offenders had moved out of their own accord. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Casper Jun 24, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### My amazing stay at the Franklin apartment hotel 😊 The place is amazing and extremely clean.
