The Frances Modern Inn is hands down the only hotel i ever wanna stay in, downtown. The room was so gorgeous, close to everything, parking was easy, and Vicki literally greeted us and walked us to our room upon arrival. It is so stinking cute at every turn. My partner and I are already plotting on a trip back.
Very nice place, courteous staff, Peota was an amazing dining experience. Really like the unique atmosphere and styling, the outdoor communal lounge area felt like being in a different country. Definitely recommend over chain hotels and the cleanliness and conveniences rivaled the finest establishments.
Staff are incredibly helpful and kind. Rooms are beautiful with thoughtful touches. It's close to nickel city and paperboy. Excellent location. The bed and the bedding, excellent.
I don't leave reviews often enough but had to because I loved this place! Vicki was so helpful and kind and my room was such a vibe. I will definitely be back, hopefully sooner than later.
