10/10 Exceptional

This is the place to stay....

This hotel offers the largest rooms with a kitchen for the money in NYC. Get one of the suites with the patio. Go to Madre downstairs for an excellent brunch. Highly recommend the french toast.

Great location if you’re in Greenpoint… Staff friendly and very helpful. Rooms are clean and very large for NYC area…. Will certainly stay there again
Bill, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location, very clean and comfortable. Nice to have a kitchenette although could be a little better equipped. The bed was on the noisy side if you’re not just sleeping in it. Would recommend for a solo traveller, maybe check elsewhere if you’re looking for romance.

Lovely boutique hotel in Greenpoint. ...

Lovely room in Greenpoint which is close to great restaurants and indy theater Film Noir Cinema. My room had a balcony and full kitchen which really elevated my AM pre check out.

Staff were super friendly and the size and space of the rooms was so much better value than many other hotels I've stayed at in the city. Some great local bars and food options available within walking distance too.

Robin, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very comfortable accomodations. Down side, no breakfast or coffee available. The room had an efficiency kitchen, but who wants to cook when they are away. May be great if you have kids but you have to leave the property of essentials

10/10 Exceptional

For my purposes, the location was key. My room was very clean and spacious. I wish there was bathroom counter space. The front desk staff were very nice and helpful. I feel the lobby could use a little renovation.

A slice of home in Greenpoint

We stayed at FGH for a wedding -- though we were a bit nervous when we walked into a small lobby, when we got to our room, every penny was WELL worth it! It is like staying in your own apartment, it felt like home and we, frankly, didn't want to leave.
Theodora, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We had to move due to a leak in our ceiling Handled quickly by staff and moved to a similar room. It was closer to lobby so was a bit noisier. Room was nice
Jerry, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very nice large room. Very clean. Staff seemed new, inexperienced. Charged me a fee that I had already paid. Still waiting for the credit. Saturday night in the bar restaurant below, the music was loud thumpa thumpa until 11:30 at night.
keith, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

The place was very nice and the staff was nice. Only down side is that when I checked in I forgot my id and credit card with the front desk worker and she never informed me that my property was in her care until the next morning when a new staff took over and realized. She even saw when I stepped out that afternoon and never mentioned that she forgot to give me back my cards
Rebecca, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I booked a de luxe suite for a very high price for the location. When I got there, although the room was nice, it was in the basement, closed windows below street level, smelly, very bad intermittent cellular and wifi connection! Terrible in every way and unacceptable. Misleading advert by Expedia and unacceptable offering by Franklin Guest House.
Ernesto, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Fantastic location and the property is charming but in need of some repairs. Our room was spacious and nicely laid out with a little kitchenette and a balcony. Unfortunately, the doors going out to the balcony did not open. The lock seemed to be broken. We were also frustrated by the fact that it took fifteen minutes to get the hot water working. The bed did not seem like a queen, but it was comfortable enough. Other than these complaints, the property was adorable and spotlessly clean. But for such a high nightly rate, you want everything to be in working order.
Dori, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Do not stay here, very noisy, lousy service.

This was a terrible experience all the way around. I had called the hotel prior to booking to see which rooms had the soaker tubs, I was told that the suites had a 50/50 chance of getting a tub but one was not guaranteed. I messaged the hotel to explain what had been discussed with the receptionist and they read the messages but still never responded. However, when we checked it, we were informed that those rooms no not have the option of a soaker tub. Therefore, I would have booked the smaller room to get the soaker tub. The "separation" in the suite is not a full wall and does not provide separation from the other spaces. There was a kitchen and stairwell entrance that was right next to our door causing there to be an abundance of noise all throughout the stay. When we spoke to a manager at 7 pm that night, we were told that this would go on until midnight and they would send a bottle of champagne, as it was our anniversary, which did not happen. There was also cursing in the hallways and the maid service was loud when they were still cleaning the rooms at 3:30 pm. As guest, we signed a no noise policy, but they don't hold their employees to the same standard. I have tried to reach out the manager of the hotel a few times since our stay but nobody has contacted me to deal with the multiple issues of this stay.

Our room was perfect for our stay. The bed was very comfortable, the room was clean and well appointed. The kitchen was well supplied and the couch and table were put to good use. Franklin Guesthouse was very close to the person we were visiting, we walked to restaurants and grocery stores. Very convenient! And a big bonus, friendly staff! Will definitely stay here again.
