Ample space, great price

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 20 Aug 2022
Frankenmuth Motel had a long room for us with 2 double beds AND a twin bed. This is the only room we have ever stayed in that had this. Other hotels, get a clue. Traveling with our children, who are now teen and adult, is always a challenge. This made it easier. And the bathroom? Our door opened OUTWARD, meaning no scraping knees on the door while sitting on the toilet. The sink area had a long counter with ample room on both sides, which meant everyone had a place for their toiletries. The fridge was taller than most hotel fridges; this is important to us because we travel with a cooler due to dietary needs. The breakfast was decent. The price was excellent. If you're looking for a good basic spot to spend the night in Frankenmuth, don't think twice, book here.
P.S. Not all the rooms had the extra twin bed and the reconfigured bathroom door, so make sure that you ask if that's what you need.
P.P.S. We got a coupon for Bronner's Christmas store here too. So of course we had to get some Christmas in August.

    A little expensive for a room of this caliber, but clean. Location near Bronner's and downtown explains the price. Popcorn ceilings reveal age of building, but all was in order, mattress was excellent, and it was clean. Breakfast is continental, unfortunately.

    Everything is clean: the room and the property. Room is fully equipped.
    Check in was prompt and the guy was very polite.
    They got both: a fridge in the room and an ice machine.
    And this is a real motel: park your car directly in front of your room. 1st floor rooms only!!

    The only bad thing: they don’t even have milk for breakfast :-((

    Room tip: All rooms are on the 1st floor; and the street is not that busy

    We really enjoyed our stay. Our room was nice and quiet and bed was comfortable. We slept great. Everything was clean. There was a huge selection of tv stations though we didn't have time to watch anything. Staff at check in and out very nice and professional. Breakfast not fancy but just enough to start our day. It is almost perfect location- close enough to all the attractions, yet a little out of the way so not such a busy area. I hope to get to Frankenmuth again soon and will definitely stay here. I appreciated the call a few days ahead asking if we were still planning our stay.

    We enjoyed our stay at this quaint motel. We stayed here a few years ago and decided to return after our first good experience. We like the recent updates & cleanliness. When we were there they offered a complementary breakfast consisting of items such as hard-boiled eggs, yogurt, pastries, coffee, juice, etc. The bed was comfortable, the refrigerator (very cold) was large for a motel/hotel, & spacious.
