I had a terrible experience at the Quality Inn in Helen, GA. Unfortunately, I discovered bed bugs in my room and immediately informed the hotel staff. Shockingly, they simply responded with "okay" and did nothing to address the issue or offer a solution. There was no apology, no offer to change rooms, and no attempt to rectify the situation. This level of service is completely unacceptable. I will never stay here again and wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone.

Clean room. Bed was 3 inches lower on one side, not comftorable. Maintenance of sink was lacking, drain plug could not be removed so water would drain. TV remote did not work. Good location

Maybe three stars.. Maybe.
Although the location is pretty good, service was nice, and providing somewhat of a breakfast was a positive, that is it. The smells that came from the bathroom were very unpleasant, updates are definitely needed, and it would have been wonderful if the pool was in service, but I guess you can’t win them all; you definitely get what you pay for in this type of atmosphere.

The staff was very kind, and friendly. I booked a non-smoking room. When first entering the room, there was a faint cigarette smoke odor. A little while later, the room started smelling like smoke, pretty strongly. I noticed it seemed to be coming in from the outside, from the air-conditioner. I called the front desk, to let them know, because I do not smoke, and I did not want to be charged a fee for the room smelling like smoke. A staff member came to my room to see what I was talking about, and she said she smelled it also. at first I thought somebody was probably smoking right outside of my door, but I never saw anybody doing so. I then noticed they have a designated smoking area outside, which was across from my room. every time I would notice the smoke getting bad again, I would look out and see that people were out there smoking in that area. I'm assuming the smoke is drawn in from the air conditioning unit. It made it very hard to sleep, and I ended up having to sleep in the bed furthest from the air conditioning unit, because my sinuses were getting extremely irritated, as well as getting a sore throat from the smoke. I ultimately had to sleep on my side, facing away from the air-conditioner. I'm not sure where the smoking rooms are on the property, but I definitely feel that the non-smoking rooms should be on the other side of the property, away from the designated smoking area. I woke up very unrested, with my sinuses and throat feeling very irritated.

I booked a two night stay at this hotel and I was not impressed. There was rust in the bathroom tub, some white stuff all of the chair, curtains, carpet. There was no cover on the outlets. The lights didn’t work, refrigerator had an awful smell. We stayed 1 night and my husband woke up unable to move due to the bed being terrible. We went to the front desk and advised that we would not be staying for another night and asked for a refund. The manager Nikki told us that since we booked it through a 3rd party we had to contact them. We contacted our 3rd party who advised that the hotel had to be reached to notify of the refund request and approve it. They tried multiple times to reach the hotel and every time she would answer and hang up. They even asked us to go to the front desk and let them know about the call. While standing there she answered the call, said that she had to place them on hold and hung up on them. We checked out that morning and the company advised that they would escalate the matter and try to contact them. 5 days later and they contacted me to say that unfortunately they couldn’t be reached and therefore no refund would be granted. Awful customer service, would not recommend this place to anyone. If you’re staying in Helen, stay somewhere else.
