We have been staying at Bavarian Inn for years. We love it there. It has gotten so pricey, I think next time well stay elsewhere in Frankenmuth. The new water park is nice, but my sons have mostly outgrown the water park experience. I love the grounds, they're beautiful. The rooms are average. The arcade has always been a favorite for my 4 sons! We enjoy the indoor putt-putt as well.

Loved the new waterpark. My kids and I had a blast on the new and old slides. The arcade area was also fun. Overall the hotel and common areas seemed clean. Our hotel room was very dated. The pullout sofa mattress was absolutely terrible. The springs were mostly broken and it had many rips in the mattress. The sofa bed was impossible for our teen to get the least bit comfortable. Our two queen bed mattresses were extremely firm and it was very hard to get comfy and fall asleep. All nine of our pillows were like firm bricks. We were excited they were hypoallergenic, but all of our necks were pretty sore the next morning. We appreciated the shampoo and conditioner in the shower. It left all of our hair very soft and shiny. I think they need to replace all the carpet in the rooms with a hard surface flooring. The carpet looked so worn down and dirty. We'd probably stay again, but I'd need to bring our own pillows and request an updated room. And if we booked another family room, I'd definitely pull out the sofa bed to make sure the mattress was in a condition conducive to sleeping in comfort.

Disliked: Amenities
No complimentary coffee maker, no hand soap, no storage at all for toiletries in sink/counter area. No storage for putting personal items. Toilet wouldn’t stop running until manually adjusted. Sink continued to run and had to adjust just so to stop. The price was ridiculous for the amenities. Would not recommend it to anyone.

Despite having the water park attached to the hotel, the place was quiet. A very large hotel and it is easy to get lost in the building. The staff was friendly and the room was clean. I didn't use the pool, but the place is within walking distance of stores! I highly recommend going there.

Room and hotel were great, the restaurant inside Olgas kitchen or whatever it’s called was the worst!!!!! Cold breakfast, TERRIBLE quality (I can’t stress how terrible the quality was, it’s pretty much the food left over and slightly warmed up in the microwave)
