Nice, quiet, and a good price for the area. Easy walk to river shops and Bavarian Waterpark (about 1/2 mile). The a/c was great. I do have lots of little complaints. The single bed (full size?) was adequately comfortable but way too small - the room was small but could easily fit a king. The deadbolt was tough to lock; I had to pull up on the door to lift it into a place where it would engage. The bathroom was updated with modern fixtures but not finished well and the plumbing was ugly and hacky; loose faucets, missing drain cover in the tub and the sink had a flexible tube instead of a proper p-trap. The bathroom lightswitches were outside the bathroom door and there was a seperate switch for the light and fan, which is always a bad idea and the mildew was already starting to spread in the top corners. Otherwise the room was clean and tidy, and had modern furniture, a tv, mini fridge, and a microwave which was nice but it had the brightest dang clock display I've ever seen. A little bit of tlc to reduce that and the other annoying little led lights in the room would go a long way. Most egregiously, I was in a bind for a feminine product and they had none at the desk, not even a single for sale, and directed me to a drug store a couple miles up the road, which I personally found unacceptable enough that we will be trying somewhere else next time we are visiting Frankenmuth.

Enjoyed our two night stay. Room was clean roomy. Only issue was the short toilet in the bathroom. Not a problem for us, but could be for taller people.
