The property is a value motel. For the price, it was about as expected in terms of cleanliness and what is offered (room size and amenities etc.). It worked OK for me on my brief tour of Michigan stay in 2025.

Okay if you can't find anywhere else to stay

Looks like mom and pop place, but I heard the check-in person say they didn't have any rooms for a person who was on the phone with them. That person asked what a local room was and they said it rents by the hour. For the most part if it was a true mom and pop place, it was okay the furniture had been upgraded it was a small bathroom but I can deal with that everything was good until I saw two bed bugs this morning one on my sweatshirt and one in the bed. I had bed bug killer I killed both of them. I left earlier than the office was open so I could not report the bugs. But there was one visible on the sheets I left for a present.

Its was a really cute studio apartment type set up. But the lights between the beds didn't work. It was clean. No bugs. Quiet. The guy that works there is polite. It was a neat lil place. The microwave was wonky and touchy. The toilet didn't flush right. The fridge was super tiny and one tiny trash can for a 2 person 4 day stay?! Yeah that needs to be improved upon but overall, we enjoyed it

Not a bad place to stay for a night. Mom and Pop place compared to the big hotels. Room was very very small AC unit in the window did not have any controls buttons are all taken off Wi-Fi very intermittent. With my dog fee the room cost $90 for the night. Definitely not worth $90.

Staff was very friendly, room was comfortable but we couldn’t seem to get the door locked. Not sure if it was just us or if the lock was broken. Bedding was clean and the price was affordable. would stay here again if in the area.

Relax Inn was a small, quiet, squeaky-clean, newly-remodeled inexpensive mom-and-pop jewel in Buena Vista, MI, which sports almost no jewels of any kind. But over the years the standards have fallen. Fridge needed to be cleaned better, candle wax (?) on the carpet, toilet's loose, sink faucet's loose. All of these issues could be fixed in a single morning w/o great effort or expense. But they haven't been.

Good accommodation for a "no frills" motel. Clean and simple. The staff is very friendly. I'll stay there again next time I'm in the area.

A place to crash, but nothing more.

A little run down, but beds were clean. Carpet, not so much. The bathroom was functional, but very small and not especially clean. Essentially just an outdated room with overused towels.

Good value

We have stayed at this motel a few times now and it is always as expected. No frills, but clean, comfortable and safe. We feel it is a good value for what we are looking for.
