Bavarian Inn of Frankenmuth
The hotel room was clean but a little dated. The new water park is lovely. There is a wide variety of slides for different ages and levels of thrill. The adult’s only hot tub and swim up bar were nice and secluded away from the noise of the rest of the park.

The room was clean . The staff at the desk was friendly. I didn’t get up for breakfast so I can’t comment on that.

Hampton Inn Midland
Would definitely stay here again. They had breakfast bags to go with waffles when we left at 5am…a nice perk.
