While we have stayed in Helen, GA many times before we would rather sleep in the car than in this hotel! It was the worst. LARGE spiders in the room, we killed at least 6 in the evening. There were ants crawling up the wall when we walked into the room. The bathroom had mold in the grout and along... More

I honestly don't know why ANY of the travel sites gives this hotel the time of day. It's horrible, the bed was lumpy, the carpet was dirty, mold in the bathroom and the front desk clerk is rude. The "free" Wi-Fi never connected and the continental breakfast was worse than what you'd pick up in a gas station. I'd rather... More

My husband and I stayed the last night of Helen's Oktoberfest. We found our room to be only moderately clean - hair in tub and on bathroom floor, for example. The bed had just a sheet placed over the mattress with no mattress pad. When we came to our room shortly before midnight, we learned the walls and floors of... More

We went to Helen, GA to see the fall leaves. The hotel was very budget friendly. I didn't expect any frills for the price and so wasn't disappointed. No coffee maker, no soft fluffy towels. They had wi-fi but we weren't able to log onto the internet. Oh well..It took several minutes for the hot water to heat up. Overall,... More

Made my reservations based on a website rating. Viewed hotels website and the promises they made there included that a King bed room would have a microwave and a small fridge. Also free wi-fi. A None smoking room was requested. After an all day drive from Texas we arrived to be given a room that not only did NOT have... More

I paid $45. It was worth about that much. First off, some of the photos are obsolete. The continental breakfast looked nothing like the picture. It consisted of a tray of danishes, a tray of muffins, a bowl of apples and bananas, coffee, and orange juice. There was a toaster present but nothing to put in it. As for the... More

Our 16 year old daughter booked a room for us for our Anniversary and said go and get out of town. She put a hold on the room with her debit card and was told When we arrive we would have to sign for the reservation, since she was only 16 and could not complete the transaction. Upon our arrival...

Paid WAY too much for this dump! $114 literally down the drain because all the owner cares about is the drunken partiers that stay at this place. Room was DIRTY-ants in room, black toxic mold in room, beds sag, blankets have holes and cigarette burns in them (we chose non-smoking room) and the party that went on for 6 hours... More

This place was a nightmare! The rooms had nothing that was suppose to be in them when we made reservations. No microwave, no fridge, no phone that worked! It had ants in the bathroom and huge water bugs all around the outside of our rooms! We actually took pics. We had 2 towels and 2 washclothes per room for 4... More
