Don't like new parking policy.

We had a nice stay here however we did not like getting charged $5 a day for parking. The point of staying at a hotel in the downtown area is so you don't have to pay for parking. I could have reserved a room at a cheaper hotel on the other side of town and paid for parking on my own.

Pros: location was convenient to the main areas of Helen. Main part of our room was nice- new carpet, nice large TV and stand. Three beds and a sofa which gave my family plenty if room for sleeping and the room was large so we could spread out. Cons: bathroom was tiny, shower was tiny (maybe 32” x 32”), large gaps around the door so you could see through them, paint was all over things that shouldn’t be painted (I’d hire a new painter), no place to hang clothes, breakfast was very limited with the only thing hot being waffles or pre-packed oatmeal (by adding hot water). Overall, the stay was ok but definitely not exceptional.

We paid for 2 nights on a non-refundable sale and checked out the next morning after the first night. This is an older "motel" masquerading as a Quality Inn. You know the kind where you park in front of your room and everything is detached from the office. Beds were said to be newly replaced but the mattress was hard as a rock. No luggage rack or surface to put bags on so they stayed on the floor. Shower curtain rod installed incorrectly so the curtain refused to stay drawn on each end resulting in wet floor. Curtain would sag and only cover the middle. Desk chair upholstery was ripped and tattered. Just a bad experience.
