I like the whole experience, however when showering my water would go cold, the hot… it’s as if someone flushed and my water would go cold, I would have to step out of the water because it would get too cold to stand under the water. Ms Lynn was awesome, thank you Lynn for all your help.

We stayed 3 nights and it was Amazing. The hotel front desk peeps were extremely friendly. The rooms were updated and clean. I loved that it was in walking distance to everything (downtown Helen, shopping, dining, site seeing). We will definitely be coming back.

Check in was a little slow because she was the only one there, but once we got checked in the room was really clean and the beds were very comfortable. It was near lots of shopping and dining options. No problems and I would stay there again.

Read the negative reviews and still stayed 4 night

I was skeptical about booking after reading reviews however with the price being so good we stayed anyways. The hotel is old ans d it shows, but its clean. The rooms are updated but still show wear and tear. The beds are very comfortable!! Plenty of towels etc. Basic room. The sheets had rips in them, i contacted the front desk so they woupd know we didnt cause the rips. They have an incidental sheet and will charge you for damages. The housekeeping is great, very helpful and we really liked them. The pool is absolutely wonderful. The fire pit needs to be reserved so tell the front desk. Its fun we had a good time after swimming late. The breakfast is very small just fyi.The coffee is ok.There is a grocery store nextdoor that has excellent breakfast and lunch, dinner. Its a deli. BETTY'S, remember that! The hotel is in walking distance to the river, shops, restaurants. Very happy with the location. We will be back!!

Wonderful stay – clean, renovated, and super comfortable! I had a fantastic time staying at this hotel in Helen! The room was very clean and clearly recently renovated – everything felt fresh and modern. It had absolutely everything I needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. I truly enjoyed my time here and would definitely come back again!
