Super 8 by Wyndham Helen
The hotel is old and could use remodeling. The rates have gone up and the rooms are not up to the quality of the money you pay for them. We were in a pinch this time so we booked here, have stayed here before but it's not our previous place.

Brasstown Valley Resort & Spa
Beautiful location. Our room needed a refresh and a deep cleaning. Loads of dust in the vents and the tub and surround was very old. The hot tub was also closed.
