Great location, awesome staff!

The staff is friendly and attentive. They allowed us to check in early so we could get the whole day of arrival around town without having to worry about leaving our luggage in the car. Clean room and centrally located. It is an older building and it shows, but it was clean and exactly what we needed.

We liked everything about the property! The location was great and being on the river was excellent to take a dip in the river whenever we wanted. Our room overlooked the river which was our morning and afternoon relaxing time. Ryan was very helpful in surrounding suggestions like restaurants and must sees. He was very friendly and welcoming which made us comfortable. Just two Florida girls enjoying there getaway! Thankyou! We will definitely be back!

We really enjoyed our stay. You are close to everything. We enjoyed sitting out on the balcony and watching the river and the river riders! We rode the Mountain coaster which is a short walk, floated the river - also very close! Paul's was a great option for dinner as well as Cowboys and Angels. Will definitely be back and will stay at the Helendorf.
