Service is always good. The ladies that work there are always so nice. The mattress should be replaced it sunk in the middle, shower took 10 min to get hot water. Breakfast could have been better. But other than those things, pretty good stay.

Our Stay in Helen Ga
Short on staff, somewhat friendly. Don't eat the free breakfast. Also don't it at Dotties Kitchen. The whole town of Helen now charges a privilege taxe if you use a credit card, it's an extra 3.75%. If you use cash they drop it except for the Alpine Pizza with still charged it even when I paid in cash. Also parking is $10 in most of the town except where there is a park outside of the main drag.

Unlucky pick?
I understand dog friendly and appreciate that because I have a dog that stays inside but it shouldn't smell like a dog. Also Shouldn't have enough poison (flea killer) next to the bed to choke you. Had to move the wife to the grandsons bed. On accommodations the toilet had a child's seat and the whole toilet moved when I sat each time. Ring around the tub. Handle to tun squealed loudly each time it was turned. With all of this you would think it would be enough but then a tenant moved in above and had a child running back and forth across the room to midnight. Ordinarily this would be a muffled sound but not here. You can go and try for yourself but it wouldn't be advisable.

Check in was great...loved Randy! Felt safe. Rooms do not get daily cleaning which for me wasn't a problem...just wish I was told that in advance. The room could have been cleaner. Foind blonde hair in my bed...mine is black. Breakfast was from 6-9am. Pancakes, bagels, yogurt , orange juice, coffee...etc. parking was easy. Has an outdoor pool.

Location wise, this motel is excellent! It's at the top of the hill and on the strip. Nobody is at the desk if you want to check in early. There is a note on the door that check in is at 4pm. Room is old and outdated. The bed was ok. It only had a fitted sheet, a flat sheet and a blanket unlike other places where there were bed protectors and such . Towels were thin and old, like you know it's cheap and been used ALOT. Sink was dirty. As soon as I walked in I noticed gnats in the room and that was annoying. I can't stand them. The fridge was dirty and wasn't clean. Breakfast is a joke. So the only good thing is the location!

It was clean, the water pressure in the shower was perfect, probably one of the best hotel shower experiences I’ve had and I travel often. The flooring could have been cleaner, but for the price and convenience of the location, we didn’t care.
