A/C and Heat systems need improvement

Well, to start they don't have A/C. During the most heated months of the summer were the most uncomfortable. They have internal fans blowing but no A/C. It was miserable for most of us. Several residents where complaining. Secondly, the heating is not great either. They passed out portable heaters for us to stay warm while they were "Fixing The Heating System". Overall, it depends on the individual needs. I needed a place that was inexpensive and close to my job. It's affordable and it is a pretty good area to live in until you can figure your next move. It's not all bad, it just needs an upgrade in maintenance. Oh by the way the residents put trash outside their door for pickup. It stinks up the hall before they pick it up.

I have been very disappointed in this place the misrepresentation to get someone to move in. Here was ridiculous. They covered it all lying by omission and just straight up lying about the facility.

Thank you [name removed] for blessing us with a roof over my brother’s head. He’s meeting his neighbors and they have been very helpful. The Park at Franklin is a wonderful community! Thank you again! We will definitely recommend this apartment community.

Park at Franklin review

I wouldn't refer anyone there; they had a horrible bed bug infestation and it took them forever to get the right type of exterminators out to treat the problem! Also, during the coldest part/week of the winter; the heat was out for a full week and all they said to the residents was they can buy space heaters for their apartments, they did not compensate them in any way for these major issues!! They are the worse!!! Please don't refer any other seniors to that place!!!!

Review for Park at Franklin

She was happy with the activities but this was not worth the cost and I would not recommend this place in a million years. It's not clean, trash in hallway and overflowing garbage in dumpsters all around the property, they have bed bugs in several units, staff is not friendly, she doesn't use care services and wouldn't use them if we had to.

This place has many pros

I like it I think it’s a good community. There are many pros here, and only one con that I can even see there are libraries and classes trips and Theatre the office has treated me kindly I like it my only con is the laundry room. They don’t have enough of them. They are too far away and they are not working properly. I didn’t know that when I came had I known, I probably would’ve made a different decision because the laundry facilities was number one on my list of things I had to have in order to move somewhere. I would not have moved here. Had I known the laundry were so bad they are not enough of them and if you go to the B building. There’s not even one over there at all and only one in every area, only 2 in the whole building For everyone and they don’t work properly they take your money. It’s too bad because other than that it’s a great place. Had I known what the facilities was it would’ve been a dealbreaker. I really hope they correct that if they do it would be good.

While Not Perfect, Overall a Nice Place to Live

The building residents are very friendly. There are some building connectivity issues with the internet. The buildings front office provides easy access to residents for food delivery, and other service providers during business hours. I liked the fact that the utilities are included although the thermostat just allows you to adjust the heat from high to low, to off. There is no temperature control for heat or A/C.. This is still a big savings. The location of building was central. The maintenance team has been very prompt in responding to concerns when the complaint is filed online.

Friendly supportive staff

When it comes to the meals and medication, they were often late due to the staffing shortages. The people in assisted care however respond to requests quickly for most of the time. Based on our experience so far we would recommend the Park at Franklin community to other families.
