Ok for a quick last min overnight

Staff are friendly. Room smelled clean but the floors were not mopped and the sheets on the bed did not look clean when we arrived. We booked last minute. So with that said, overall it was an ok place.

Liked: Cleanliness
When I first pulled up, I was a little concerned because it appeared to be very small and tucked in. The room was small, but as my daughter noted, it was probably the cleanest place in Seaside. Zero mold smell the air conditioner was cranking. The sheets were immaculate and soft. The bathroom was tiny but immaculate. I will suggest bringing your own shampoo, conditioner, and soap three packets were provided, but very small. The furniture was definitely dated and well worn but clean there was a refrigerator stove, top and microwave. The pool is around back through a narrow walkway, but again was very clean. There were plenty of chairs and floats and also a barbecue with picnic tables.

We were pleasantly surprised with this place. We are from NJ and know how bad Seaside Heights motels can be and we accept that, but that was not the case here. This was our first time staying here and we had no problems with our stay. The room was clean, check-in and check-out was easy. It was close enough to the boardwalk, to be convenient, but far enough away that it wasn't too loud.

I've stayed in many motels in Seaside Heights and you can assume it's not going to be great! NOT the case with Franklin Terrace. The family that owns/runs it is super nice and welcoming and the rooms were recently renovated and extremely clean. We've found our place in Seaside Heights from here on out!
