It was a very nice stay. The beds were comfortable, and the room was clean. The breakfast was very good and included multiple options, such as turkey sausage, pork sausage, egg white veggie omelets, cheese omelets, various cereals, yogurts, bagels, pancakes, and pastries. The omelets were delicious. It was a great way to start our day and was one of the better complementary breakfasts we have had at similarly priced hotels. The staff were so helpful, king, and accommodating. Why not 5 stars? The bathroom, though clean, needed updating, as it had some peeling paint, cracks, and mildew stains.

Clean, friendly staff. Comfortable beds. Great breakfast buffet options. Only recommendations would be updates. Tile in bathroom was loose and wobbly. Rust stains on outside of tub. Walls and floors also very thin and could hear ppl stomping around all night. We had first floor room. Pool was clean but the room smelled a bit mildewed.

Very clean, spacious rooms & Hotel. Front desk clerk Sahara was the absolute most friendly person we have ever encountered at check in. Even though she had a line, she made sure to give eye contact to everyone, to make sure to apologize for the wait.
Pool and Hot tub perfect

Beds comfortable, but high and difficult for a short person to get into. Clean room and hallways, low sitting toilet in bathroom, amenities good. Mini fridge and microwave in room. Quiet area good for sleeping even though close to major highway. Would def stay here again.

We have stayed here numerous times over the last decade. Our last stay prior to this was about 2 years ago and it was lovely. This time we were disappointed to see that the property has not been maintained as one would expect. From the outside it looks nice, but once inside you can see lots of signs of deterioration and uncleanliness. A chunk was missing from the bathroom door, our toilet was literally sinking into the filthy slate flooring. The toilet would not flush properly (we ended up needing to call for a plunger) after which it still needed to be flushed multiple times to get anything to go down. The drains drained poorly in the tub and sink, there was rust over every bathroom surface (some painted over, others not). Stains on the carpet, dust caked onto the air conditioner unit, stains on the wall, drawers that would not close all of the way blocking your walking path to the bathroom in the middle of the night and causing you to fall. We never had enough towels, even though we’d marked that 4 people would be staying in the room. I could go on, but you get the idea. I only wish that I’d thought to take pictures because then you would see these are no exaggerations. The two employees I did encounter were nice. We travel frequently and almost always choose a Holiday Inn or similar tier hotels due to a decent price point and typically nice and clean rooms. I’m not sure what’s happening here, but I don’t think we will be staying at this location again - sad.

We stayed 2 days. The first morning I made coffee just for me. The second morning I went to make coffee for myself and my husband and theire was no replacement cup from the previous morning. I do not understand why such a simple thing of checking the coffee cups and replacing them is such a hard thing. Other hotels do this too. Water cups too! Especially nowdays, why aren't there glasses available? Used to be all glass and replaced daily.

Check in was wonderful. They were able to let us in a little early, as we had to get ready for a wedding nearby. My only complaint, and it is one I have made at other properties, relates to the bedding. I do not need a down comforter. I cannot sleep when the bedding is much too warm, despite the fact that the room was very cool.

Front desk staff were so friendly and kind throughout the stay.
Pool and hot tub were nice.
Location was fantastic, close to both Birch Run shopping and Frankenmuth.
Rooms were a little older with some wear and tear showing but were clean. I would stay here again.

WIFI didn't work in my room the whole weekend. Probably should have called the front desk, so probably partly my fault.
Toilet fill valve would not shut off, so water continuously overflowed making noise. Not too concerned because it did not bother us. The hotel probably lost money because the water ran continuously.
Breakfast was really good.
Really hot on the 2nd floor right outside the elevator. probably due to the refrigeration units for pop and ice machine.
The dining options were good but not staffed very well. Very hard to get waited on so we left 3 different establishments before we found one that would actually serve us.
Having the outlet stores close by was a bonus.
We were instructed to park out back. That door worked with our keycard. No one was parked by the north door where the elevator was located but our keycard would not open that door so we just parked out back after that. Wasn't sure if this was on purpose or not. Did not ask anyone. Was more convenient for us to use the north door when no one was parked on that side. We were lazy and didn't feel like walking those extra steps. Not an issue.

The only good thing about this location was the staff, they were all friendly, helpful, and professional. The hotel however definitely needs some updating, maintenance, and a very deep cleaning. Its was filthy Our room was the cleanest part with stains on the carpet and what looked to be pet hair on the lounger. Then in the bathroom there must have been a leak in/around the fan above a toilet and looked like they quickly and barely did a patch job with holes and starting the show mold. The hallways, stairways, carpets were all so gross. If we hadnt gone through travelocity and I would have asked for a refund and gone elsewhere.

Standard fair for such a property. A big negative was lack of AC in the main area and breakfast area.

Checked in early. Front desk was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Explained everything to satisfaction. Room was clean, spacious and well laid out. Bathroom was clean. The Dove products were a wonderful change from standard hotel fare. Breakfast was great. Good options including healthy choices. Close to the Premium Outlets and many dining options. Will definitely return.

The breakfast and the outside property is great! When it came to the conditions of the room it was about as good as a 1 star motel. The beds were comfy but the washroom and the ac were all garbage.
