It was a great stay

2/10 Poor

Not clean

The hotel rooms were absolutely disgusting. The sheets were dirty, there was dust on everything. Just not cleaned well at all. The room also smelled like someone had been smoking weed.

Hotel Francis St Francisville great stay!

Marion was especially helpful at the front desk and it was so great to meet Shannon the new owner at the end of my stay! Everybody always can use areas of improvement so the only area that I mentioned to you I'm reminding you I was the microwave was totally not working and I know you will take care of it. I definitely I'm going again. Godspeed and peace!
Keith John, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is a decent place to stay; dated but friendly and clean. They offer a dinner service which is nice and the breakfast is very good. It didn't appear that there was any housekeeping available during a 3 day stay. Nice staff and a convenient place to stay.

Everything was quiet and clean. Bunch of remodeling going on, which is understandable for a new owner.

The Dump

I'll Never make the mistake of staying there again. TV would not work. Brought us another one. Next morning it would not work. Phone in room no dial tones not working. At 7:30 am electric went out in room. Never came back on and no one ever came to room check on it. Had to go down to front dest request another room just to take showers. Breakfast, well not any better. Nothing to drink you coffee out of. Dont waste you time or money on this place. Its the dumps..

Rebecca d, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel was a bit outdated and could use a little work. But we didn’t mind it at all. We just went there to sleep because we were hunting right down the road. Staff was great. Seemed like a quiet place even seen a deer in the parking lot.

The plaques of all the plantations in the main building was very nice touch, as well as the hot breakfast was amazing compared to most hotels where it's just cold. Seems like the new management is making steps in The right direction And we look forward to returning and seeing improvements

It was a nice place to stay it was affordable the hotel itself is relatively older and can use some remodeling but it was still very good and it was a free dinner and breakfast included with the room the staff was very nice

2/10 Poor

Bad ownership

The staff were great but the owner gave me and my family of 4 the dirtiest look the whole weekend. She would look at us in a bad way and would not take her eyes off of us like she wanted to do something to us. During this stay I just lost my mom and this is how you treat your guest. If you are African American I would think twice about going there because she doesn’t want people like us staying there. She only want you to work for her which is the impression she’s giving. She made me and my family feel very uncomfortable and I worry a lot about others of my race that’s comes in contact with her. To her staff, please please be careful and safe working under her. I would never bring my family or my children to stay around there again. Kids definitely doesn’t deserve to see the ignorance that she puts out there.
3-night trip

2/10 Poor

The reviews and pictures did not match the actual rooms, they were out dated and didn’t look or feel clean at all. We were also not told of the large party going on till relatively late at night

Re: dump

This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed at! It’s under construction; however, this place should be torn down! Went for complimentary breakfast at 8am, and the food was all gone. Guest were looking around for the food!! It seems as if this is a rent by the week hotel, so many may live there. Trust me, stay elsewhere!!
