This place is an old time motor lodge on 441. The decor is dated, but this place is inexpensive. Staff is super friendly. We asked for extra pillows and front desk guys brought them right away, he refused a tip. Amazingly clean! Had a simple breakfast the next day in lobby. Juice, coffee, muffins, fruit and yogurt. Had a little... More

We normally stay at another hotel in Franklin but they were sold out so we tried the Carolina. Thank goodness the other was booked else we would have missed this great motel. The rooms were very clean; the staff very helpful; the rates very reasonable. We had a king sized bed that was very comfortable; microwave and fridge. Older but... More

Although an older facility, the motel has been recently renovated. It is clean, has most of the amenities (fridge, microwave, flat screen TV, etc) and has a "can do" staff that can't be beat. Add the fact that you pay much less than motels in the surrounding area and you've got a great value. Highly recommend.

What an amazing weekend!!! March 30th to April 1st it was my pleasure to stay in the one bedroom cabin at The Carolina Motel. It was so cozy, clean and comfortable I hated to leave to visit family. The cabin had everything I needed and then some. Next time I'd like to stay for a month and have my family... More

We recently spent some time visiting our family in Franklin NC and we stayed at the Carolina Motel. It was over the Christmas holiday season. We did not expect much because we know that the town is very quiet this time of the year. We had (2) rooms and we asked for them next to each other which we did... More

Our stay at the Carolina Motel in Franklin, NC was relaxing and especially clean. The lady at the front service desk was about as nice as you could ask for. It was quiet and reasonably priced. The stay included a continental breakfast consisting of muffins, french bread, bagels, orange juice, coffee and fruit. If you want a nice, clean, reasonably... More

I just can't give this place more than 3 out of 5. It really is just a clean, non-chain motel - but that is fairly rare to find so this place is still recommended. Pros: * Cheap - we paid under $80/night in peak Fall season. * Huge room with multiple chairs and some nice, if slightly tattered and mismatched... More

A trip to see the NC leaves changing and the prices also changed in the area. Hotel is 16+ miles off the interstate and I was hoping to find reduced prices, but no luck. The cancellation policy changed and now is 7 days before stay, I was used to 24 hrs at other locations. Hotel was clean, room nice and... More

Stayed here for three days after finding great reviews on Tripadvisor. Staff Darlene and Debbie....fabulous and very attentive. Had a minor issue with their wireless which was fixed in under 10 minutes. Room very clean and just what we needed for a three day motorcycle trip based out of Franklin. There are more expensive places but not nearly as nice... More
