I enjoyed the size of the room. It was reasonably clean, the location was amazing. My only issue with this room was the bathroom was tiny compared to the size of people it’s supposed to accommodate, and there was no where to store clothing. No racks, hooks, drawers.

Good location. Outside access so can park right in front of room. Old facility that could use some TLC. But it appears that some rooms were being remodeled. Pool was being repaired. Nothing special here but nothing bad either. Very friendly staff.

Room not worth the money we spent.
The room was kinda thrown together very fast after some updates. I guess. There was two toned paint in the walls. White paint all over the full length mirror on the bathroom door. Bathroom door jam was nasty. Lamps looked pretty old. Stains on the chair. And the toilet didn’t flush very well. We had to constantly use the plunger.

Old facility. The owner, at the very least should grab a paint brush and some paint, inside and out. Holes in the sheet rock. Live water damage leaking from the wall. The smoke detector had a paint bag on it. Holes in the entrance door to the room. Curtains were falling of the curtain rod. Need I say any more!

Fun place to stay
Room was set up nicely. Bathroom was just way too small to be handicap accessible. Shower floor was filthy. Has a oily grimy feel to it.

I had a terrible experience at the Quality Inn in Helen, GA. Unfortunately, I discovered bed bugs in my room and immediately informed the hotel staff. Shockingly, they simply responded with "okay" and did nothing to address the issue or offer a solution. There was no apology, no offer to change rooms, and no attempt to rectify the situation. This level of service is completely unacceptable. I will never stay here again and wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone.
