What you see on the listing is NOT what you get. The room we originally booked was disgusting. First of all, it was “non smoking” and the whole room reeked of smoke. (and also mildew)Upon walking in, the first bed had massive wet spots and stuff on the covers & pulling back the sheets, there were stains on everything else too. Appeared to not be cleaned. The bathroom walls had black mold surrounding my the shower. I’m pregnant and absolutely did not feel comfortable in that room so the guy at the front let us stay in another room. That room was better but still gross & uncomfortable. It smelled. The floors were gross & not cleaned, there were stains on all of the sheets (a lot less than the first, though) & a literal cockroach in the bed. we covered the bed in extra blankets we found in the room that seemed cleaner & slept on those. The towels in the bathroom appeared to have pubic hairs on them (so gross) , & the handle to the bathroom was broken. we also had to ask for a remote for the tv because there was as no remote in the room! At night, you will have the opportunity to hear every single thing going on in & outside of every room nearby. (if you know what i mean) i could quite literally hear when the room next to us got a vibration on their phone. the walls are PAPER thin. You will also hear very loud plumbing sounds whenever any showers or sinks are turned on in other rooms. The breakfast options are extremely limited (muffins,waffles, coffee,& juice).

We actually had a terrible experience with this hotel. Our non smoking room reeked of smoke. There was mold and dry pee on the toilet seat. There was missing and damaged panelling on the ceiling outside our room. Additionally there was panelling hanging from the ceiling outside the adjacent rooms.

It was our first time in Helen, GA so we weren’t familiar with the area. The Motel is the farthest from downtown area. There were a lot of cigarette butts in the common areas, large spiderwebs from the edge roof to the hand rails on the 2nd floor. Most of the doors had dents, the paint was scratched and chipped. Our room had a large dent on the metal door, the sink faucet was loose, there was a nickel size cigarette burn in the bed spread, which was very, very thin. The sheets, were clean, but very thin. The bed was slightly leaning to one side showing a gap between the headboard and the mattress, that although looked very square and flat, was comfortable. There was rust on the toilet where the seat connected with the bowl. The bathroom was a tub/shower combination, was clean and had clean white towels. The room itself was clean, but had a faint cigarette smoke smell. The TV worked and there was a fridge and microwave, that we didn’t use. The air conditioner worked very well. The place could use an upgrade, new linens, more attention to detail in certain areas, some air fresheners, but definitely some ashtrays outside or designated smoking areas. The motel attendant was nice and friendly, think he was the only person on site. I gave it an average rating, because the room was clean, it had great water pressure in the shower, the mattress was comfortable and the AC worked. New linens, some touch ups and some minor repairs would make a huge improvement.

Not so bad
I need 3 things in a hotel: Safe, Clean, and Comfortable. This hotel was lacking on clean, it wasn't super dirty, just not up to most people's standards. Luckily, I brought cleaning supplies.There wasn't any bad or lingering odor. The sheets were not great, but because another reviewer had knocked the bedding, I brought my own sheets and towels. The room was large, the mattress was comfortable and clean. The toilet area was small, sandwiched between the wall and the shower. The toilet wasn't seated properly so there was a bit of a "clunck" every time anyone sat down. The shower head wasn't screwed on well, so a stream of water hit the wall behind it. Baths aren't an option, as there was no plug. One issue: We had been in the room for quite a while, when I noticed a peanut shell next to the nightstand. Something I felt sure had not been there before. The next day, there was a peanut shell outside of our door when we returned from seeing Anna Ruby Falls (a definite must see). There was also a peanut shell on the floor by the sink. Again, I felt certain I would have noticed that before. It made me feel like someone had been in the room (the Do Not Disturb sign was on the door) but nothing was missing. Three nights was less than 1 night at most of the other options. We were there to see the falls and the town, not lay around in a room. The guy at the front desk was the best! Super friendly, and quick to help. With general upkeep and better cleaning, I would have rated it higher.
