My stay at Best Western Forest Inn was truly enjoyable. The hotel provided clean and comfortable rooms, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. While the dining experience was impressive, the Wi-Fi had to be paid for separately. The location was convenient for exploring Historical Franklin and the surrounding areas.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and welcoming, but dealing with the squalid conditions was disappointing. The staff was helpful and made me feel at ease, which was appreciated. The price matched the agreed reservation, but the overall value for money was questionable.
