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.
