We were very close to the river front stores and the downtown area. Breakfast was simple and very good. The motel is very clean and very quiet. I would recommend staying here. Just remember that the room are small, and we had no issues with that.

Staff was friendly. Facility called to confirm our reservations a week in advance. Not sure what up with some of the air conditioners in hotels now but they barely run at night but they run during the day even when set as low as they can go which was 65, it makes the room hot at night and not comfortable to sleep in. Bed was a firm one, didn't get much sleep. Motel is close to downtown for shopping & dining.

Frankenmuth Motel is a nice and very clean motel close to downtown without the crowds. The room was clean, a little dated, but very comfortable. The beds were extremely comfortable, the only minor issue we had was with the shower. Low water pressure and not very warm.

Great value and location for the price. Room was recently renovated and very pleasant. There were no unwanted sounds or smells from neighboring rooms. It was an easy walk to nearby sights and things to do downtown, and there was plenty of parking. Breakfast the next morning was also quite nice. All-around a win!

It’s sort of on a backstreet from the other motels, which makes it very quiet and away from the main traffic,but it is very close to Bronner‘s and the downtown area, just a very short drive, or if you’re up to a good walk, you can do that also. It’s an old-fashioned motel where the doors are outside facing the parking area, but they’ve maintained it very well. They serve a small continental breakfast. The staff is friendly, polite and helpful.
