Parking fee is too d... high. Feels like pure profiteering since there is no other option nearby. Other than that, we think the Residence Inn Watertown is wonderful.

Beds and Furniture Broken and Expensive Parking
The hotel itself is nice. The beds were HORRIBLE. The king bed was so broken the box spring was touching the floor when I sat on it. The mattress felt like two buffalos had slept on it as the divots were so deep I keeps rolling off the bed. The couch was completely broken and the pull out couch was uncomfortable. When I checked in the desk associate took my credit card for incidentals but didn’t tell me how much the hold would be for. I checked my account and it was $100, which was fine. But then the next day the amount of the hold changed to $230, without notice. I asked the front desk and they said it was for parking and incidentals for the four days I would be there. Another item the initial check in associate didn’t tell me was that parking was $30 per day… a little annoying but ok. At breakfast one day my toddler said the milk tasted funny, I tasted it and then looked at the expiration date and it was expired. All the white milks that were set out were expired. Other than these items everything else was nice. The room was clean, the food was good, the pool was nice. If the beds had been not broken I probably would stay here again.

A fantastic find!
Priced right, convenient to our destination and a wonderfully equipped property! Parking was easy, staff was friendly and helpful, breakfast was hearty and plentiful. The Arsenal Mall is across the street with a good selection of restaurants; also the Watertown Mall is adjacent. The suite is comfortable with all needed amenities. Wish I could have stayed longer! :-)
