The location of the property is great. We were able to walk to all of the places in Helen that we wanted to visit. When we arrived, Liam greeted us. He was extremely kind and informative.

Clean, walkable to everything in town, quiet and the staff was very kind. Breakfast was wonderful!!

The rooms didn’t get as cool as I typically like but otherwise it was clean.

Clean and well-organized

Room 306 has no blackout curtains. So, the outside illumination makes it challenging to fall asleep at night

Breakfast was good and the extended hours were appreciated so that you did not have to rush.

Cost was higher than expected for a 3 star.

The room was very clean..still smelled like bleach when we got there.

When we got there, it was about just a few minutes before time to check in according to Booking.com (3 pm). The lady at the front desk told us that the room was not ready and to come back at 4 pm because check in time had changed. When we got back, it still was not ready. She said she would call us. By this time we were tired from our trip there and my disabled husband was really ready to lie down and rest. She did not ever call and it was nearly ANOTHER HOUR. We decided to go back to the hotel and see what was up. It was finally ready for us…the lady made a remark that she was glad it was ready because she could tell I was getting very frustrated. It was just a lot to deal with after traveling several hours.

Everything was great and the hotel is conveniently located on Main St near the Chattahoochee River.

The staff were great! Everyone was so nice and helpful. I had a medical emergency on that Sunday morning and we were far from the hospital and I was told that the ambulance takes forever. Savannah at the front desk drove me 25 minutes to a hospital to get help and stayed in the waiting area for 5 hours. I can’t thank her and the staff enough for helping me. It was my first and hopefully my last asthma attack. I couldn’t catch my breath because of an allergic response and urgent care wasn’t open yet.

Enjoyed everything especially the find the hearts and receive points. The pool inside was a plus. My daughter and I really loved swimming. The gym was also a great highlight for myself and daughter

Breakfast was good but today was confusing because when we checked in Saturday we were told breakfast started at 10am. However when I walked down to get a cart the breakfast area was open. So I told my family to grab something and then we were informed 30 mins before closing that bacon and eggs weren't going to be made. However one of the hostess did make the items and my family and I were really appreciate

This hotel’s location is unbeatable we walked to downtown and back several times during our short stay. Saved ourselves downtown parking fees. The room was a good size, clean and provided enough supplies for all four of us. Breakfast was excellent. The staff was friendly. It’s surrounded by lots of businesses and places to eat.

I think it’s a little overpriced and our bathtub got invaded by ants. The front desk did send the exterminator to deal with the problem right away.

location and cleanliness

issues with Booking.com. I booked through Booking and paid with PayPal . Your hotel called me that morning saying there was no payment. I had to call the UK myself to get it cleared up. When we got there, they sent us to a room that was not clean. We had to be moved to a different room.
