Room was clean, bed sleep very well, shower & ac worked great.
The room was clean and the room was what to expect for the price. The manager was very nice. The only reason not five star was the toilet ran in and off all night.
This is our second time staying at the Budget Inn here in Ellijay! Very clean and nice. Staff very friendly and knowledgeable of the area. We will continue to come here when visiting this area.
Nice clean room. We were pleasantly surprised. Very nice folks running the property. We were goung to ride motorcycles for 3 days and asked if we could park there, they charged $30 in cash in advance, but we never did park at all fue to unforseen circumstances.

Perfect place to put your head down and see the town of Ellijay
The management worked fast to correct an A/C issue. Room paint needs touched up but not bad. Furniture needs refreshing. Bed are firm but good. Excellent location to downtown. Restroom is small but is updated.
