This house is as close to downtown as you can be. The rooms are spacious and the kitchen is well stocked. Plenty of parking and we cooked out on the grill 3 of the 4 nights we were there. Chloe the host is awesome. So responsive and accommodating. We loved staying here.

Came to Franklin for a night wedding to attend a wedding. We got in late and headed to bed around midnight. By 3am we all woke up sweating. The heat was on and it was very uncomfortable. We searched everywhere for a thermostat and could not find one. It did not appear there was a thermostat for our house. I messaged the host but understandably did not get a response. We opened the doors to try and cool it down but obviously could not go to sleep with the doors wide open. We decided it was too hot to stay and packed up and left. I was disappointed as the reviews for this place were great. We paid decent money for a nights stay only to not be able to sleep and have to get back on the road.

The thermostat was set at 72 degrees. It was 40 degrees outside. Sometimes people just want to stay for free.

Location wasn’t desirable, nor was the parking. A more comfortable interior might make up for that.The host was very accommodating and made every effort to help.
