Nice clean room with 2 nice beds. Very nice with a coffee/tea pot in the room and the large vestibule. A nice very well managed motel. Thanks for the stay.

I came here to stay for Thanksgiving weekend to see my wife's family and didn't know what I was getting myself into until I got there. To be honest before I arrived I didn't have a huge expectation at all, but even so it was a disappointment. We only had 2 days booked, but shortened it to one day since... More

We needed a place to stay with our grandchildren before we went to Pelican Inn on Dog Island. We found this inn to be a really nice overnight place to stay. It was quiet and the management were very nice. The Pit Stop Restuarant was right down the road where we had steaks and local stuffed flounder. It was a... More

We have stayed here a couple of times. The first time was OK, no issues. It was a basic room but clean. The rate was ok. The second time we stayed we had to change rooms because of a flea infestation. Within minutes of being in the room my son killed 15 fleas. In the second room we had the... More

This is a very basic place, no frills. It does have a microwave, coffee maker and fridge. They keep it very clean and are very nice . We are able to bring our dogs, who are allowed on the beach, which is less than a mile away. Our favorite place to stay when we are visiting the forgotten coast.

The hotel was clean, quiet and pet friendly. The shower could've used a bit more water pressure. The grounds were kind dark at night when we took our dog out, had to listen very closely to make sure there were no bears coming...yes there are a lot of bears in Carrabelle!

There is a lot of potential here and one or two things would make this a 5 in the value category. First of all, this is Florida-you need a regular, dedicated vigorous exterminator. No restaurant or hotel can cut corners here and the Franklin has. Mud daub wasps every few feet on the exterior dive bomb you (kids love it!)... More
