The property seems to be in need of renovation and no room clean up unless you requested. The room smells and bed are terrible to sleep on.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was a little dated, but very clean. It felt safe. The view of the river was great! It was close to everything. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Location was perfect. Staff was great. But the building and the rooms were worn down.

The hotel is a walkable distance to everything in main town. However, it needs a renovation as other reviewers mentioned. The room i got wasn’t clean good and one of the sheets had old stain and they only do room service if you requested it. Rooms are spacious and A/C worked perfectly. Parking is included in your stay. Breakfast is included but is one of the worst in my opinion since we travel with little kids. They only provided personal like frozen packed of bagel, mini burgers, and I believe pancakes and they have a machine with coffee and juice. Staffs are nice and answered all need questions. Overall if you want something in price and in walkable distance and dont matter eating outside, it a good option to sleep in it :)
We had a great stay! The hotel was clean and the view was amazing. The music at night was a little loud and the walls are a little thin - we could hear our neighbors and their extra curricular activities at night.
While it is clearly an older property, it was very clean and in the perfect location for those wanting a quaint mountain stay in the heart of Helen. Because of its age, the walls are thin so be prepared to hear the local festivities as well as your neighbors. The staff was prompt and very pleasant, and the continental breakfast was perfect for an on the go family. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking to explore Helen, GA.
What a sweet place to stay! We loved that it’s in the heart of Helen. Every place is walkable. Rooms are spacious, beds very comfy, and check in was a breeze. We are looking forward to staying here again.
Excellent stay with a clean room with a beatiful view. Right on mainstreet so no need to uber to any spots and easy to drive out and come back to a parking spot.
Enjoyed our stay here. A charming inn in the center of town!

Very convenient and perfect walking distance to everything. Very clean but could definitely use some repairs. Paint didn’t match on the walls. Lots of scuffs and scratched and gouges in the walls.
