Great time!

I always enjoy my time at The Bavarian Inn. The new splash area was awesome! We rented a cabana and truly enjoyed it. Lots of great drink options, and the food was good also. The food prices were actually really reasonable also.

Hadn't stayed at this property for at least 15 years. It REALLY needs to be updated. The entire hotel smells-different smells for different areas. Our shower smelled. The carpets are old, the hotel is old. Mattress was great-not hard but not too soft. The bedding was crisp & clean. The room was clean too except for the smelly shower-mold or something. It could use an entire overhaul with everything updated. Oma's restaurant was really good. If you have kids & want a lot of activities for them & you don't mind smells & an old hotel, go for it. We will be staying at a newer hotel next time.
