Heidelberg Motel

Very good

Bad

Liked: The staff was friendly.
Disliked: We booked the motel not expecting anything spectacular. We thought it would be a fun, roadside motel that matched the Bavarian theme of Frankenmuth. Unfortunately, the room had not even been attempted to be cleaned after the last guests. Beds had very clearly been slept in, blankets thrown up, pillows disorganized. The floor was dirty. Drawers were left opened. A random office chair sat in the middle of the room, no desk to be found. Old food was left in a fridge that had been turned off, and smelled rancid. The top of the fridge had salt and food on it. The bathroom had dirty towels on the floor and sink, garbage on the shower floor and dirty adult diapers in the garbage can. All of the garbage cans in the room were full. If thw room had been cleaned, it would have been fine. It really looked like someone else was staying in the room. It was so bad we left to get a different hotel.

Very good

Liked: quiet and comfy.
Disliked: need to attend to grounds upkeep

Hotel was located in a...

Liked: Nothing. There was NO breakfast provided. The AC worked but the AC remote did not. The TV worked after figuring out the two remotes without any instructions. Guy walking around in the parking lot wearing a yellow slicker and it wasn't raining. Put you in the mind of the slasher movies The Bates Motel.
Disliked: Water damage on the walls near the floor. Mirrors and windows dirty. Blinds very dusty and dirty. No light in the shower. Barh towels were sketchy, went to Meijer and purchased our own. Entrance door would stick and the locks were hard to operate. No ice machine. NO amenities at all. Room had a closed up smell. Bed was very hard. The motel did not look like the pictures provided on the web site. The motel was very old and very much needs updates and repairs.

Clean, comfortable stay. A little...

Liked: It was clean, comfortable, and quiet
Disliked: The shrubbery around the place was overgrown. And there wasn’t a person when I left so I just left the key on the desk. Everything was outdated but it was clean and a nice place to stay. I would have liked free breakfast also

Pleasant

Disliked: This is a very old facility and was not up to date. Need a little TLC.

Great budget option for big...

Liked: It's nothing fancy- no pool no breakfast no gym -but we weren't looking for that. For a bigger family, the triple room is great; we've got 5 kids and for most places that means 2 rooms, but we fit doubled up here with baby in a pack n play. If you're looking to head to Frankenmuth or Birch Run on a budget and really just need a place to sleep and shower this is perfect- we stayed 2 nights for a fraction of the price for one night anywhere else in the area. Really appreciated that the deadbolt didn't even have a keyhole on the outside- gave us peace of mind for security, especially with our door on the back side of the motel.
Disliked: Air conditioner is LOUD and woke me up at night a few times, but none of the kids noticed so no biggie. Couple cobwebs in the corners of the bathroom but no bugs!

Good

I hope the owners keep...

Liked: This mid-century modern hotel is on the tipping point of being a really nice stay. It was clean, quiet, and just what I needed. Just a place to sleep between events. I was pleasantly surprised to find a coffee pot, microwave, and refrigerator. Which had I known, I would’ve been better prepared and brought snacks. As it was, the McDonald’s is close by. Great hot water pressure in the shower, another pleasant surprise from normal when I stay in these small hotels. The bathroom is tiny, but has everything you need. And again…have paid a lot more for hotels that were not that clean.
Disliked: The pink tiles, and the furniture were perfect mid-century modern, and an update of the style of blinds, shades, hotel duvet/comforter type bedding and hard surface flooring, would’ve equaled a hotel I stayed at in another state and paid triple the amount for. The potential is there.The bed could’ve been a bit softer, but it didn’t stop me from sleeping. And there was no Internet but I was prepared for that and used my laptop and personal hotspot to stream movies.
