We stayed at the Econo Lodge Watertown on Saturday April 13th 2013 and our parents were across the hall. We were all awoke at 2:00 2:30 AM bout lots of yelling and fighting in the hallway. Apparantly it was a party gone wrong. The noise continued for some time and the front office contacted. The desk person was coming over... More

We were awoke our first night with the fire alarm going off at... More

If you just want a bed for the night and at a reasonable price, this Econolodge will do. My room was pretty drab and showing its age, but it was clean and the bed was comfortable. The bath room was no more than adequate and the tub shower was pretty antiquated — but I managed. The morning's continental breakfast was... More

This is the second time we stayed here. When we checked in the person at the front desk was so friendly. Our rooms were clean. Some updates needed but for the price you pay it is great. Close to all shopping. Will stay again!!

The econolodge was affordable, close to shopping and restaurants. The hotel itself is old and the rooms are "tired". The rooms were clean and the staff was friendly. P{robably will not return here....

This hotel was not bad for the price we paid. It was conveniently located on Arsenal St. close to the Salmon Run Mall and other big box stores as well as many restaurants. The hotel has an indoor swimming pool which my Son and I really enjoyed. The complimentary breakfast wasn't the best as it did not include eggs, waffles... More

Just came back from the second stay here-last time 2010. It is absolutely all a senior could ask- close to major department stores- Saturday afternoon next door at the Tilted Kilt-beautoful girls and wonderful food. Requested ground floor but the handicap washroom had more safety features than ever imagined. A stay in a Toronto hotel last summer for a wedding... More

When I travel for business, I need to stay at places that take the government rate. Well, I made a mistake and thought the rate was less than it is for the Watertown area. I could have stayed at the Holiday Inn Express or even Comfort Inn up the road. I was really hesitant to stay here based on the... More

Room was clean with a fridge, microwave, large-screen tv, a window that opened, ( we were on second floor). The bed was comfortable. The staff were very friendly and extremely helpfull re directions, shopping, restaurants, etc. Breakfasts were great, juice, coffee, tea, cereals, bagels, danish, fresh fruits (all included). Will stay here again.

Sorry, but for $85/night I should have known it would be a disaster. Worst beds, smelly rooms, run down and not nice at all. However, the staff were friendly and the breakfast (included) was adequate. I wouldn't return even if they paid ME $85 to stay. I'll never take a chance on another Econo Lodge, that's for sure.
