I absolutely loved staying here! My only qualm was that the door didn't quite seem to close completely, so you can hear pretty much everything going on outside. My boys and I felt very safe and comfortable. The pool was well maintained and warm, nice location as well to get a bit of sun. The room was immaculate, comfortable bed, and I appreciated the quality of the towels. The AC was a godsend in the summer heat and was pretty easy to adjust. I was thankful for how friendly the staff was as well.

I liked the hotel but would have preferred for an iron or steamer to be available (as it was told in your website). The door lock looked damaged. Other than this, the hotel is in a convenient area, employees were nice. I will consider visiting again in the future. Thank you.

My husband and I had a great stay here. The room was well appointed, bed was super comfortable, the pillows were nice and fluffy, bathroom was fresh and clean with plenty of towels. The only complaint we had was the freezer door on the mini fridge was frozen shut. The landscaping was well kept, the pool was clean and sparkling.! The continental breakfast was very minimal. My husband would’ve preferred some kind of meat like sausage links, or patties to go with it, but wasn’t a dealbreaker. The location was very convenient to downtown Helen. We were close enough to walk instead of paying for parking. We would definitely recommend staying here.
