About this property

Welcome to The Relax Inn

The Relax Inn, located at 1145 PA-315 in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, presents itself as a no-frills lodging option for travelers seeking affordability and basic comforts. With a modest 3-star rating, it caters primarily to visitors focused on sightseeing and recreation in the area.

Guests often praise The Relax Inn for its quiet atmosphere and reliable essentials. Cleanliness is maintained, the rooms are bug-free, and conveniences like a working fridge and microwave add value to the stay. Hot water is consistently available, and the on-site payment process is straightforward, reducing stress for those on the go. Free Wi-Fi and free parking enhance the practicality of this budget-friendly choice, though connectivity may be spotty depending on the room location.

However, The Relax Inn carries certain limitations. The absence of a lobby, ice machine, and coffee services means guests must adjust expectations. Smoking rooms show signs of wear, and bedding is not individually wrapped, which may concern some travelers. Storage space is minimal, posing challenges for longer stays. Entertainment is available via DirecTV, addressing at least some in-room leisure needs.

What stands out about The Relax Inn is its raw potential. The large number of rooms available suggests capacity for growth and improvement. While it lacks luxury amenities such as a fitness center, restaurant, or pool, its location lends itself well to visitors eager to explore Wilkes-Barre’s local attractions and outdoor activities without a hefty price tag.

In sum, The Relax Inn serves as a practical, economical choice for budget-conscious travelers who prioritize function over flair. Its straightforward approach to lodging meets fundamental needs with few complications, though enhancements in room quality and guest services could elevate future stays.

I like it. Cheapest rate in town, bug free, very quiet, working fridge and microwave, always hot water, no fuss, easy to pay on site, smoking rooms are worn out and wifi range is not great but fast when connected. Directv. Heads up: no lobby, no ice machine, no coffee, beds are not wrapped, and lack of storage space. Lots of rooms. Lots of potential.
