My stay at Relax Inn Heth was a mixed bag. While the morning staff were friendly and breakfast had decent options, the check-in experience was marred by the attendant's poor hygiene habits. Additionally, I faced issues with my room's coffee maker and the internet connection was unreliable, which added to my frustration.

The room was clean and neat, but it had a strange syrup-like odor that was a bit off-putting. The lack of a microwave was also inconvenient since I brought instant coffee and had no way to make it.

The service was hit or miss. The morning team was nice, but the guy at check-in had a terrible attitude and was unprofessional, which left a bad first impression.

The location is next to a noisy truck stop, which wasn’t ideal for peace and quiet, but it's close to food options and right by the lake.

The facilities seemed in need of maintenance, with rust present and a general sense of neglect around the hotel. There was also an unpleasant sight of a dead bird near the walkway.
