Residence Inn by Marriott Franklin Cool Springs

Specifically booked this hotel for the hot tub. It was not working. We were told we could use the hotels next door. It was pretty much a bathtub with a couple of lame jets. There was no ice bucket in the room, we asked front desk, she gave a bag for ice and said she would bring one later but didn't. Room above us had a leaking toilet that was running all night. Room is nice, but we were just disappointed.

We booked the Marriott specifically for the hot tub. Found out when we arrived that it wasn't working but we could use the nextdoor hotels. Went there and it pretty much was a bath tub with very little bubbles 😕

Staff was so pleasant

The layout of the property was great. The rooms are spreadout enough that i never felt on top of anyone else or even heard anyone gor that matter

We stayed on Valentines Day and the stay was perfect. Easy check in, clean room, welcoming and helpful staff, great area, good breakfast. Check out was 12 not 11 so that was great! The hot tub was down but said we could go to the Courtyard and use that one. So I would highly recommend the Residence Inn to anyone.

It was very clean and well kept. Very nice.

Very quier, clean and confortable!

Well equiped efficienty appartment at a reasonable price. Staff friendly

Arrived to check in at about 2pm. Was told check-in wasn't until 3pm. Ok, I'm not a child. I've been traveling as an adult for some 35 yrs now. 2pm is ok at most places. Then I'm asked when exactly I made the reservation, which I had made 6 days prior to arrival, made thru Marriotts site. I'm told that a room that I reserved wasnt available, nor was the room going to be what I expected (which was a 1 BR suite w/ 2 queen beds). I was told only 2 queen STUDIO suites were available, which wasnt an option for us. Didnt like hearing that. If I reserve a 1 BR suite w/ 2 queen thru your hotel website, that type of a room should be available to me, as stated. In the end, we settled for a 1 BR suite w/ a King sized bed. Once we got up to the room, we saw that, as many other reviewers have posted, some of the furnishings were a bit scuffed and on the rougher side. The fridge had a lengthy scratch across the front, the walls had various scuffs and stains.Everything worked as needed, but, the shower faucet was dripping constantly, the kitchen faucet handle came loose, the wife found mold in the dishwasher, and some of the carpet trim was broken, creating a tripping hazard for some. But, like I said, everything worked. I've been coming to the Nashville area several times per year since 1997 or '98, and am pretty familiar with the area. Franklin/Cool Springs is a nicer part of town, and I was expecting this hotel to follow suit. The immediate area surrounding the hotel is a quiet professional office park, and retail area, but, the room was a bit sub-par. I've been a Marriott member for about that same length of time, and in my profile preferences, it states that I like rooms on a high floor. Was given room 222 on the 2nd floor, and got to listen to foot steps above us throughout our stay. I've included a photo of our "view" from our window. Theres no way to prove it, but, it appears as though my preferences were being disregarded for showing up an hour early, borderline being punished. In the end, some things were good, others not so much. Would I stay here again? Maybe, if the price is right, and if I actually get a room type and location that I wanted. Good- Comfy bed Free parking Good breakfast Good pool, hot tub Netflix in room Bad- room type room location condition of room furnishings lack of friendliness at checkin (dec 24th, approx 2pm) Now, my wife talked to the manager at check out (Dec 28th) about some things mentioned above, and he tried to make things right on our bill, which was very much appreciated. Thank you.
