Ive stayed here before so I knew what to expect. The staff is friendly and the hotel is worth the money. However, I was informed upon my arrival that the hotel was running a special that weekend. So i actually paid more by booking the hotel online. 10$ to be exact which isn't a big deal but was still a... More

The rooms are tiny and somewhat cramped, but clean. You have a fridge, coffee pot, microwave, hair dryer, and a phone. I like the area; it is a bit from the overcrowded and loud road. The only downside is you do not have any scenery. I have found that the majority of the cabins and hotels in Helen are extremely... More
