Reviews for Black Forest B&B

Review 1:The place was cute, it is a little outdated. The waterfall in the room makes for a musty smell. Could be dusted better. Needs some updates.

Review 2:It was nice. The people aimed to please us and make us comfortable. The bed was very comfortable. Paul was great, he catered breakfast for us and it was like having a home cooked meal.

Review 3:We loved everything!

Review 4:We had the best weekend! Staying at Black Forest B&B just made our stay in Helen even better! Excellent staff, very comfortable rooms, etc.

Review 5:Bring your own pillow.

Review 6:The innkeeper, Paul, was very helpful with advising about local landmarks to see. He was a pleasure to meet and talk to and makes killer pancakes!

Review 7:Rooms are a little dated, but that is part of the appeal. Two person tub was nice after a day of hiking and the water was always hot!

Review 8:Close to town, the staff would clean up your room while you had breakfast if you wanted them to. Was nice.

Review 9:The Black Forest B & B is located directly on Main Street making it just a walk away from some amazing shops and attractions. Our room was perfect and cozy for our 3 night stay.. Wonderful and considerate staff, delicious breakfasts. What more could we ask for?

Review 10:The only problem was the 51 steps you had to go up to get to the cabins! It was well worth it, once you got up to them, though!

Review 11:We loved the location. We were able to walk everywhere!

Review 12:Noo privacy. I could hear people stomping around and talking in the rooms next to and above us. For a B& B, privacy is important. It kind of ruins the mood if you can hear people through the walls.

Review 13:Good price, convenient location, clean. (The jacuzzi was actually clean, even the jets. I still always bleach it first as a precaution, though).

Review 14:This facility is beginning to show its age. Our unit had some cracks in the floor, built-in drawers that did not completely close, and other deterioration. None of these were a problem for us, but if left without repairs, they could become serious issues for future guests.

Review 15:Good location, friendly and helpful staff, excellent breakfast, quiet and comfortable.

Review 16:The overall condition of the facility was somewhat disappointing. It could use some updating.

Review 17:The service was exceptional. The man in charge was very accommodating. The room was neat and clean.

Review 18:The only thing I would have to complain about would be the pillows were a little hard for my liking. The bed was very comfortable tho.

Review 19:I loved our room, especially the tub with the waterfall!! It was nicely decorated. Clean & cozy!! It even had bath salts :)

Review 20:The only complaint would be the parking but parking in Helen is tight every where and we never had a problem getting right to our door!

Review 21:We absolutely loved our stay. Mr. Paul is a wonderful man! He cooked breakfast for us every morning and it was wonderful! It wasnt just danish and coffee it was a cooked breakfast! The personal service makes this the best place ive ever stayed!

Review 22:The driveways were a little hard to get in and out of at times but this really isn't a complaint.

Review 23:The bed was very comfortable, was able to control A/C, the breakfast (X2) was very good and plenty of food. Very quiet at night even though we were right on the main road.

Review 24:Too many uneven stairs, tripped a couple of times going up. Ran out of tissues and toilet paper- no refills in the unit, chambermaid didn't make up our bed properly

Review 25:Room was cute

Review 26:Did not expect safari motive in a Black Forest setting. Not enough storage for belongings (clothing, etc)

Review 27:Some what secluded appearance even though right off of main through fare road.

Review 28:The night we got there my wife bought a four pack of small wine bottles. She only had one that night, all she ever has. The next afternoon after housekeeping cleaned our room another one had been taken. The proprietor wouldn't do anything about it so we told housekeeping to not clean the room from then on.

Review 29:Paul, the proprietor was very helpful with suggestions on places to see. Very friendly.

Review 30:Just a little TLC needed.In and out. Nothing super major.little tightening here and a light bulb there type of TLC.

Review 33:The bed was a little former than we like.

Review 34:The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had vehicle trouble and the gentleman working called his mechanic to set up a time for him to come by and look at our truck. We had a wonderful experience and plan on staying again.

Review 35:All the steps, next time we are going to get on of the villas by the street.

Review 36:Sitting on the porch in the sun and reading while watching people, motorcycles go by. the veiw of the mountains while having sandwiches with my husband on the deck.

Review 37:The 50 steps to get to the "cabin" (room). The room smelled old but it was clean. The hot water continually turned cold so we really couldn't use tub.

Review 38:The staff was nice. The cider was the best.

Review 39:Great service throughout our stay - from check-in through breakfast on our last day. The heart-shaped whirlpool tub in our room was a delightful surprise. Our suite was roomy, comfortable and nicely decorated. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Review 40:My husband and I stayed in one of the elegante suites. It was perfect and we especially enjoyed the heart shaped jet tub. Included breakfast each morning which was very good. Staff very friendly.

Review 58:Staff was very helpful. the breakfast was excellent

Review 59:The steps, but couldn't be helped. It would be nice if there was an option to have someone available to bring the luggage up the 54 steps to the top floor! I would have gladly tipped someone for this service. I would have liked for Decaf coffee to be offered in the morning in the dining area. I had to make it in my room and bring it downstairs. The miniblinds on one of our windows was on the floor but we had privacy from the trees on the end unit.

Review 60:The cleanliness of the room, the comfortable pillow top mattress on the beds, the fact that breakfast is included in the price. The heart shape hot tub was adorable. Having the glasses and wine opener available in the room was a nice detail.
