Great place to stay when visiting Helen! It's walking distance from the main attractions - we didn't have to get in our car from the time we arrived until we left. The room was great - very comfortable and spacious, and a relaxing hot tub as well. Only mild criticism - the breakfast doesn't include any hot options, with the exception of pre-packaged sausage biscuits which you warm in the microwave. Even something like fresh waffles would be an improvement there. But we were very happy there, and will stay there again if we return to Helen.

Many reasons we did NOT enjoy our stay. The A/C did not work. Front desk staff assured us it would only shut off once it match the outside temperature... that was not true. Outside it was 54 degrees, our room was so hot we were sweating and slept without covers. The next morning the mechanic extended his apologies because he knew the A/C did not work because of the circuit board and told us they were expecting new updated units which did not help during our stay. Next we showered in freezing cold water. It would stay warm just enough to get the soap on your body then BAM ice cold water despite the handle being all the way hot. We even tried to just put it on the warm setting. Didnt work regardless. Then, they advertise continental breakfast... its all just grab and go. No hot or fresh items which should be listed on their site.
