I stay here annually for a local event, and this hotel is a great and affordable place to stay. The staff is friendly, the rooms are clean and comfortable. There's a pool, and on site parking is free. The location is far enough from downtown Frankenmuth and Bronner's that you will need a car to visit. Otherwise, there really isn't anything close to the hotel, unless you want to make a treacherous trip across the overpass to get to a couple restaurants, which is doable if you don't have a vehicle, but definitely not something I'd do if I had children.
