Good Stay

Reviewed By 105jacobg

To preface this review I am a hotel director at an upscale resort. - The grounds and common areas of the property are clean and welcoming. I encountered staff on multiple occasions cleaning and tidying public areas and the curb appeal is there for sure. - My interactions with the Front Desk were really limited to check-in & out but I liked what I saw. When I arrived Friday night the Front Desk was assisting a slightly difficult guest but did so well and she jumped right into assisting me without issue. I regret not getting anyones names but overall good service from the Front Office. - Breakfast was to be expected for a free breakfast; it’s never going to be amazing but the area was kept clean, there were plenty of choices, and the staff running it were friendly. - Alright Housekeeping; overall the room was good, no maintenance issues or food left in the fridge. My two critiques are 1) remove the cushion of the chair so you can clean under it & vacuum behind it, and 2) tuck in and fold the corners of the bed so it is nice and tight. I know I am being picky about tue bed but that is the focal point of the room so you want it to be perfect, and the chair is a commonly missed thing but finding crumbs is never good. Overall the room was great, good size, everything worked, and I am happy. Overall the property was great for a quick two night stay and, compared at least to the Fairfield next door, this is where you should stay when in town.

Nice facility, friendly staff. Breakfast and restaurant was nice and good service and food. Only item I do not like is the new request to have room made verses daily room quick clean and making of bed. Seems to be a cost cutting by Hilton which is too bad.

Convenient location to stop after a long day in the Thousand Islands

Reviewed By X6516JAdanielk

We didn't have a reservation so we were happy to find available rooms at this location after a long day of being outdoors in the Thousand Islands. I was impressed at how friendly and efficient the front desk clerk was. She was alone as her co-worker was on break at the time and there were several of us in line. Our room was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed a full breakfast buffet the next morning. I do have 1 bit of information that will be helpful to other travelers: If you are offered a standard room choice of the 1st, 2nd or 3rd floor, you may want to take floor 2 or 3. Our room was # 120 and it was right across from the laundry/housekeeping room. I think someone went in and out of that room multiple times as we could hear the door being unlocked for a while after we went to bed . But we were so tired it wasn't as big a deal as it may sound. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Overnight stay

Reviewed By ChristinaF

Fairfield Inn Watertown ranged No 1 which was the reason I booked this hotel. As soon as we checked into our room, we found the closet door was broken. Called front desk and was told maintenance was already out of work, he will check it tomorrow. My husband and son ended up fixing it themselves. Although it is at quiet location, you could hear traffic pass by. Mattress’s springs are either too old or too weak, squeeze when you move around. FYI. We are not over 130 lbs. Breakfast was well above complimentary breakfast standard. Lots of options, even for vegetarian and Togo. Overalls, it worths what we paid for.

Great Location Very Friendly/Polite Staff

Reviewed By Ken D

We booked this hotel from our home in Ontario on the day of our departure for Watertown. The individual on the phone answered all my questions in a clear and concise manner. The hotel did honour my Canadian Veteran status and we were afforded a reduced rate. The location of the hotel was easy to find and was near a plethora of amenities (shopping, restaurants etc). Upon our arrival the young lady at the front desk was cheerful, professional and informative. Our room was clean, spacious and well laid out. The bathroom had everything we needed for our stay. **The shower curtain in our room (421) should be replaced - it was torn**. We were very pleased to find the selection of hot & cold foods available at the FREE continental breakfast that is included in the price of your stay. Upon the day of our departure we found our receipt at the door, it was detailed and correct. Hint: for a quiet room ask for the 4th floor. Summary: We highly recommend this hotel.

Stay April 29/22

Reviewed By lm_travelg

Our stay on April 29-22 was good. The room was very clean and was painted recently. We could see some of the work the owner was doing to freshen up the hotel. We appreciated the value for money. Convenient and just a few miles north of Watertown so we found it quiet but easily accessible to Watertown. Would recommend it for a short stay as it doesn’t have many amenities but clean and fairly quiet.
