Largely our stay was fine. The room itself was nicer than the outside of the building would have lead you to believe. One thing that was annoying was that when checking in we were given pretty much zero information about the facilities...no wifi password or information, nothing about breakfast, etc. These are small things that set establishments like this apart from somewhere else. Would I recommend this place over somewhere else in Helen, GA? I don't know, I have a feeling that this is pretty much indicative of all non-cabin/air B&B stays in the area.

This motel is in the old-style motel format, with the room door opening the the outside. However the management had done a decent job of updating the rooms. Still, room felt stuffy. My biggest peeve was that the mattress pad contains a layer of plastic, which (for me) made the sleeping experience uncomfortable.

Disliked: Amenities
I was extremely disappointed with my stay at this hotel. The room had bugs, and the air conditioner leaked water all over the floor, making it unsafe and uncomfortable to walk around. I reported the issue, but nothing was done to fix it during my stay. For the price I paid, I expected at least a clean, functioning room. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone until they address their cleanliness and maintenance issues.

We really had a pleasant stay at this motel. It was clean, had great storage space and a nice size refrigerator. Every motel could be picked apart by unhappy guests but for the price it was a solid choice. The owner/manager was courteous and accommodating with any request. We will definitely stay again when visiting Helen.

Not very close to the center, but you can go walking. Due to lack of knowledge, we rented during Oktoberfest weekend one night and the price was excessively expensive for what the hotel offers, which is little. The breakfast is quite basic and almost everything is cold(sandwiches,muffins etc). But if you don't have other options, this hotel can work for you if you visit Helen.

Clean room. Great staff. My only complaint was the breakfast and the coffee station. They only had sweet and low as a non sugar choice. No sugar free syrup for the waffle. Other than that good stay.

This hotel was recently renovated and fairly clean but the shower was pink in several places and we asked for it to be cleaned and they did but should have been clean befor we arived. The shower head is a has very minimal water flow which for me is terrible. The brand new mattress still have the manufacturer plastic on them so that is all you hear all night long and makes you very uncomfortable as it holds moisture. Both bes were the same. I have worked in hotels for 19 years, i can tell you this isn’t normal and should be removedas they had mattress encasments as well which is good but not the plastic. I wont be going back.
