We had a very enjoyable stay at the hotel during our kids March break from school. We were blessed with fantastic weather during our stay so that made walking around Frankenmuth, down the river and around the shops super enjoyable. For the hotel itself, we were given a cot for our 3rd child and that worked out really well. I loved the scent of the shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion that they provide in the room and appreciated that it was given in large containers. The only thing that kept me from giving a 5 star review is that during our ONE rainy day where we planned to stay around the hotel the waterfall pool was closed down for maintenance and for much of the day, only 1 slide was running. There was also an event going on in the hotel - The Taste of Frankemuth - I believe it was called that took up ALL the parking. As hotel guests, we had to park our vehicle way over by the River Place shops and then run back in the rain. (Then, go back to retrieve it later in the evening so that it wasn't left out in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night). It would be nice if some of the parking (such as near the rear tower entrances) was reserved for hotel guests only. The construction of the new entertainment area was going on while we were there but it did not bother us at all - it's possible there was a worker strike of some sort going on but regardless, other than a not pretty view it did not lower the enjoyment of our trip at all.
We would go back.
