“not the best choice”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 September 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Was probably close to the cheapest place to stay, paid about $50...the reviews didn't look too bad. The room was fairly clean. The room is so ugly, brown & orange stripes with blue floral bedspread. There was no "continental" breakfast (they placed the order and the delivery hadn't shown up yet). Would have thought they could have gone to the grocery store! There were ants and a roach in the room. Found out they have so few guests that they don't clean every day, just after they use all the rooms have been "used". Location is pretty good and quiet, above the main street.

“Great Value at the price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 August 2011

Clean, neat, pleasant management. Pool clean and well kept. Little weak on breakfast, but still a great value for the price.
Would stay again.

“Yuck, Yuck and Yuck”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 July 2011

This hotel is over priced even at $75 per night which is what we paid. We did not have a reservation, just decided to spend the night in Helen after a long day of shopping, tubing, etc. The room we got had one king bed, no clock, no hair dryer, no table. Just a bed and a TV (with no remote even) VERY Basic room. I might have not complained for $40 per night which is what this place is worth. No breakfast except stale danishes with fruit flies. Front desk clerk even gave a hotel guest money to go get her cigerettes while I was checking in. However, the place was nearly sold out so it also left for every little sleeping since the place was crawling with partiers and children.

“Totally unacceptable!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 June 2011
2
people found this review helpful

No posted check in/out time, do not attempt to check in prior to 3pm the Manager will read you the riot act. She was rude, obnoxious, totally unprofessional. Towels were sour, office unattended so we could not exchange for clean. Second time no towels in the room at all! The rooms smell moldy/musty. We have been there often, it has changed hands and has gone down hill. Highly recommend save your hard earned money and go anywhere else. Will not return, too many nice places to stay that want your business!

“Good place to crash.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 May 2011

The hotel was in walking distance to downtown Helen, GA. The staff was very nice and eager to help me. The rooms were clean and it was very inexpensive to stay. there are no glits and glitter to this hotel, so if you just need a place to crash, this is the hotel for you.
