To be fair, the whole theme of Deadwood is 1880s, but I would like the room I sleep in to have a bit more modern security. The doors are interior doors like most people have on their home closets but they added two locks. One is a deadbolt which you don't get a key to (I assume security/maintenance has) so it only works from the inside, the other is an antique night latch which anyone can bypass from outside with a business card or screwdriver. Also, to properly open your door requires two hands simultaneously (one for the lock and one for the door knob), which sucks if you are carrying something. If you only have one hand, I guess you're SOL, but most things in Deadwood are not ADA compliant. Beyond that major complaint, the rooms are plaster on lathe as was the style 100 years ago. They have a simple kitchenette with a microwave and mini fridge in case you have leftovers. The beds are clean although only double-size. The water pressure in the shower was almost nonexistent even though the sink faucets (separate hot & cold) both had good pressure. I'll probably spend another $20 and choose one of the other, newer hotels next time I'm in Deadwood.

Noisy, very old 6" innerspring mattress, heat was unreliable and noisy (started humming in the middle of the night). Shower was supposed to be retro, but hard to adjust. Historic in the name but just never updated, not worth the money. Won't be staying there again.

Old quaint motel that is in need of a little facelift for sure. I can appreciated old but this was old! Separate faucets for hot and cold in sink.. and the hot is hot! Dangerous.. ha! A motel can be old and vintage with modern amenities. So definitely will wait for the facelift..

The ground floor is beautiful. They make the parking very convenient by transporting you with a golf cart back to the Hotel after parking. The rooms are the very WORST rooms I have ever stayed in and should NOT be rented out to the public. The carpet was so old that it no longer stayed flush to the floor. The entire floor smelled of urine. Tiny and dark room. The smell was the worst & I did not want to write this review but felt that it would be wrong not to.

Location and history are what you’re paying for with the Historic Franklin Inn. Parking 2 blocks away. NO DAILY ROOM SERVICE. For our $800 stay for the weekend I was very frustrated to learn this. Especially when they had “service needed” signs to hang on the door knob. I placed the sign on the door and came back that night to dirty towels, full trash can, and unmade bed. When calling the front desk, I was unapologetically told there is no room service and they would have someone bring clean towels. The room had a nice view, but was in need of updating. Bathroom had CAKED calcium buildup on the shower head, dingy towels and bathtub with peeling caulk and stained tub traction. The room itself had peeling popcorn ceilings and goodwill furniture. Also, no mini fridge to store leftover/drinks was an inconvenience. Cleanliness throughout the property could definitely use more attention. Mounds of cigarette ashes near the benches, vomit next to the trash can in front of the hotel, finger prints all over the doors/windows/elevators. And don’t get me started on the restaurant Legends downstairs. While this is one of the nicest features of the property, the service for dinner was rude. We had an excellent breakfast there, but when returning for dinner the inexperienced hostess was unapologetic, and the young male bartender was extremely rude while sitting at the bar. Overall, I appreciated the location, historic aspects, and the friendly door man.

Property has trailer parking off site, they have staff to take you and your luggage to and from the parking lot which was very nice. Our room was on the 2nd floor, elevator was quick. The bedroom window looked right out onto the veranda bar which was a little surprising for any privacy but it was honestly fine, just surprising lol
