Magnolia Room bathroom closet - with hairdryer & Febreze for our sweaty clothes!
Shelby K.

TRUE southern hospitality...the owner is originally from Texas so we got along great lol! This is THE best bed and breakfast I've ever stayed in! Ms. Cheryl was the perfect hostess - always making sure we had what we needed, extremely accommodating and wow, she can cook! I stayed here with my parents as a stop on a road trip and we had the Fairfax Suite and the Magnolia Room - those rooms are actually adjoining if you like! Both rooms are beautiful and spacious upstairs rooms. The Magnolia Room has a bathroom with a regular stand-up shower in it and the Fairfax Suite bathroom has a jacuzzi tub with a handheld shower option. So, if you're wanting to stay in the Fairfax Suite (which is AMAZING) but really like to stand up when you shower (don't we all?), just ask Ms. Cheryl when you book if anyone is staying in the adjoining room and then you can use the other bathroom for showering if you like. She will be more than happy to accommodate you. See the photos on here to get a better idea of the layout of the rooms/bathrooms. When we arrived, we brought a bottle of Crown Royal with us to enjoy on the balcony and Ms. Cheryl brought us plenty of ice and Diet Coke to enjoy with it. The view off the balcony and the porch swing made me feel like a rich southern belle! We all slept like rocks. The beds were SO comfy and there were plenty of pillows. Louisiana is HOT and humid but the air conditioning inside this house is rockin. We were sooo comfortable all night long. I never sleep like that in hotels! Ms. Cheryl started cooking breakfast for us around 11 am (per our request to sleep in!), which was so nice because sometimes, at B&B's, you either get up at 7am or you miss breakfast - not here! She was more than happy to accommodate our morning laziness! Coffee was ready in the dining room immediately when we went downstairs - strong and smooth with all the fixings you could want! Breakfast was SO delicious. Orange juice and fresh fruit were on the table already when we went downstairs. Fluffy scrambled eggs with potatoes, bacon, fresh and hot croissants, and little carrot cake cookie sandwiches (I might've stolen a few bites of my mom's because they were SO good!). We felt so spoiled staying here. Cannot wait to come back and stay again!

Wow so not really my usual cup of tea to stay at a B&B but saw a deal on Livingsocial and wanted to treat my wife. To my surprise I loved it. Fairfax is run by the wonderful Cheryl who will make you feel like it is your house. There were only us and 1 other couple so most of the time we had the place to ourselves. At night after a trip to the very nearby Cypress Bayou casino we would come back to a quite house. The front porch is lovely but at night in summer there are plenty of mosquito's. No problem for us as there is a huge screened in back porch with tables and chairs and ceiling fans. We would sit back there together enjoying a drink and the solitude. It was very romantic and soothing. Then we would retire to our beautiful room with the comfy bed. In the morning I took advantage of the large tub/shower which had plenty of hot water and good pressure. I took way too many showers here lol. There is a fresh made breakfast in the morning at what ever time you want. The other couple had theirs at 6 am one morning and then we had ours at 9am. So sleep as late as you want! The grounds are very nice and large and often I am told they hold weddings there. Franklin the town pretty much closes down at night so be prepared for solitude and eat early. Romance, scenic, relaxing, awesome shower, great breakfast awesome Cheryl, good value, and a casino just 10 minutes away. We plan on going back on a regular basis and you should too.

See all

Absolutely loved this casino after visiting a few times while staying in the area. After taking a…read morefew minutes to sign up for their player's card we instantly received free play and food comps. The staff here is very friendly and the casino is very clean and although smoking is allowed you'd never know, it's obvious they installed some pretty effective air handlers that's capable of complete air exchanges continuously. The restrooms are well maintained and there are a number of restaurants that are serving up some tasty dishes I was really surprised with the food quality and I do recommend trying their chicken and sausage gumbo it's delicious - there is also a small gift shop. I only played slot although there are a generous number of table games. We did pretty good considering we stayed only a few hours both times we visited, although I always treat my visits as entertainment it's always nice to bring home a little of their money, eat their complimentary food using the comps and bagging a few of their promotional gifts. This place is definitely worth visiting if you enjoy this type of entertainment, I know I'll return when back in the area...

The bathroom was stocked with plenty of clean towels and they even included a shower cap and makeup remover wipe. I haven't seen those items in a hotel room in a long time.

My family stayed here years ago when it was managed by the previous owners and with new ownership there has been a 180-degree shift in the quality of the property and amenities available to guests. Key issues include: *The towels were thin and practically transparent in addition to being rough. *The carpet was dirty with visible signs of trash on the stairs. *The microwave in our room was so horrible (including RUST) that it should be thrown into the dumpster. When my husband complained, the guy at the front desk said that he would "repair it the next morning." *There is a dank, humid smell throughout the property. *Staff shared that the pool has been inoperable for 7 years! *The 'complimentary breakfast' ONLY consisted of a few pieces of fruit, bread that looked stale and a self-serve waffle station. We had booked a 4 night stay and left immediately after only one night. It just felt unclean. When I informed the clerk at the desk that we were shortening our stay, he simply said, "Ok, I will refund your money." He didn't ask if everything was ok nor did he ask if there was anything he could do to improve our stay or change my mind. I believe that he knows this location and what's offered are substandard and not worth the cost of a one night stay! TO THE OWNERS: DO BETTER, MAKE IMPROVEMENTS, CLEAN AND SANITIZE IMMEDIATELY OR CLOSE THE DOORS!!

I was going to a concert at the Cypress Bayou Casino but the rooms were sold out there, so I booked…read morea room at this place, seeing it was the next closest hotel. I was very satisfied! We got there before check in time but they let us into a room about 1 hour early. It smelled like it was freshly cleaned (really - it smelled like Pinesol for the first few minutes) and there were M&M minis on the bed for us. Clean bed, clean bathroom, and the heater worked fine. We were at the end of the hallway on the second floor, right next to the stairs and were worried it would be noisy, but there were no problems with that. The front desk staff was helpful in giving us a couple maps and pointing some places out. It was our first time in Louisiana. Big plus was the free shuttle to the Cypress Bayou Casino from 6PM to 2AM. We were only at the hotel since it was close to the casino so this was very convenient! The shuttle was a van and it was ready for us on the way there and right there when we got out of the concert. Helpful and friendly staff, clean room, free shuttle to casino - pretty good!

I just don't know where to start.... Do yourself a favor and just don't stop here, save your money…read more The room had a odd odor and the sheets had stains. There were no curtains, just blinds and one of the lamp shades was completely mangled. Not to mention the closet door wasn't connected to the frame. The sink was slow to drain and I'm not sure the bathroom had been cleaned. We were at the Casino for a concert and ended up checking out the same night we arrived. Pitiful, sad and very drab place.
