Great!
The room was clean and modern. The location was perfect for walking everywhere. Parking was easy and free. Front staff was kind. Free breakfast was really cool, they have jimmy dean biscuits that you can microwave. I thought that was clever and a great idea to still offer a warm breakfast.

Cute hotel, nice area
Helen is a cute town and I loved the theme of the hotel. It was in walking distance to downtown and the pool was covered. Breakfast offered variety but not hot eggs or meats.
