Made the reservation specifically because their hotel said they are pet friendly. After driving seven hours and not getting there until 11 PM we were told they are no longer pet friendly and they turned us away. We had to find another place to stay. Not at all happy that their information is not updated.

Our reservation said we could check in at 3 pm but they had a sign that said 4 pm check in. No one was at the office window and all doors into the office were locked. We rang the bell several times but no one came to the window. We left and returned later.

I have never been to Ellijay and was visiting family who recently moved there. I was worried about getting a hotel that was affordable and clean. I was very impressed with the room and was shocked at the value for my stay. Will be going back anytime I’m in town. Thanks so much from a northerner!
