Guest Reviews
- Garcia (1/5): - Available I have 2 service dogs for my PTSD and the manager was still trying to charge me a pet fee. The royal inn website stated the pet fee is supposed to be waived due to the service animals
- gaetane (5/5): - les lits qui font beaucoup de bruit lorsque l'ont bouge c'était très agressant
- Pauline (5/5): -
- Angel (1/5): - Pillow were horrible, cucarachas 😫
- Lucianovic (7/5): Good place for a quick stop over. - The price was lowest in area. As a traveler, I just needed a warm, comfortable place to stop over for 1 night, It wasn't fancy, but met my needs.
Checking was easy- he had the key waiting for me.
Had everything we expect. Room was clean. Bed was comfortable. Wifi and cable. Location was a bit out of the way, and gps took me on a big detour to get there. Going out for dinner was a bit of a drive- but there were several good choices in the food location.
Providing coffee or at least a coffee machine would have been appreciated.
- THOMAS (2/5): - I checked in, when I brought my dog in the evening manager started yelling at me about another 30 dollars, I have no problem with the money but he was a total rude about it. If it wasn’t late I would have left….rude way beyond necessary
- Miguel (10/5): - Clean and friendly good people
- Terry (10/5): Location was close enough for my needs, and my room was cleaned up every morning that I went away - I like that it was cozy and comfortable, quiet and the owners are very friendly and a very nice family. The only thing that let me down was no coffee in the room or lobby for wake up time. That's not that big of a deal to me.
- Damiba (10/5): -
- Verified traveler (10/5): The stay is awesome - The stay is awesome
- Cathy (8/5): Convenient, good value for your money - Convenient location, very clean.
Easy check in and out. We were told several times at check in the room was non smoking, however, the room smelled like cigarette smoke. I guess they have to deal with unruly guests. There was a lot of in and out late at night.
- Verified traveler (10/5): 100% Recommend! - This is my go to stay in Watertown. I have stayed at this inn multiple times, and the rooms have been consistently very clean, the staff is friendly and helpful, and all in all it's a pleasant place to stay. The price is also very good, which is always a huge plus!
- Gary (10/5): Comfortable & quiet - Nice spot for a 1-night stay
- Fetterly (4/5): - Cheap motel. That's it. Location
- Birgitt (8/5): - No way to make coffee. Matress was to firm. Was clean andcomfortable. Lived to be able to check in late in the evening.
- Del (4/5): - Chambres spacieuses
Parking
Douche avec espace Odeurs.de.cigarettes et chien dans.le.motel et dans les.chambres
- Susan (8/5): - This property was out in the country so that made it quiet. The only issue was that we lost power in the middle of the night so was unable to take a shower in the morning.
- Masoud (9/5): -
- Art (4/5): Not worth $86 - It had a good mattress The smell, it had an Indian restrunt smell, they had the smallest pillows I have seen in 70 years, very small, dead bolt lock was very had to latch, bath towel not the best with one that looked like it had a cigarette burn in the center. For the price I would never go there again.
- Wayne (8/5): - Staff was not very friendly. Room was not stocked with toilet paper and beds are very noisy
- Christian (10/5): - Is good!
- F W Lynn (9/5): Great net our needs - Our 2nd stay at thr Royal will go back Nothing
- Kevin (10/5): - Very nice stay
- David (8/5): Overall it met expectations and we were satisfied. - No breakfast?? Bed was noisey, mold on shower curtain.
- Susan (4/5): - We were upset to see dust webs in the ceiling corners and someone else’s half used bar of soap was in the tub. I didn’t realize that they had regulars living there, and they were noisy and knocked on doors early 6:30 ish in the morning! The room was non smoking but smelled like it had been smoked in , maybe person next door was smoking, ugh. We didn’t feel very safe there.
- Pauline (10/5): I would recommend to a friend - The staff was very nice. The room was decent sized and clean. It was close to town. The grounds were very clean and had a large grassy area to walk pets. Our request for a specific room was met. I did not like that at 9 the owner had a staff member knocking on doors to ask if we were checking out. Check out is 11. The lighting in the room could have been better. It would be nice if the rooms had 1 comfortable chair.
- Gary (6/5): - Found some dust in room. No wash clothes or towels. Pet friendly, but $25 up charge.
- Joseph (6/5): - Sink wasn't walled in with bath tub and toilet ,check in was at 2:pm not 11:am and public rest room in lobby will come back if changes are made
- Stephanie (10/5): - Simple and clean
- ROCCO (8/5): - This is a nice place to stay and I would recommend it to anyone. The only glitch was that while the wireless worked 100%, the internet was not available on the wireless most of the time. Because I rely on internet access a lot when I travel, this was a bit of an issue. I was able to use the hotspot in my car though, so everything worked out.
- Martin (10/5): - Clean affordable inexpensive room
Chair and table in room.big tv.
- Henry (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tanya (10/5): Exceptional -
- Darlene (3/5): Room was okay but no hot water was not pleasant. After traveling all day all I wanted was a shower - I never found breakfast No hot water when I arrived or the next morning
- Crystal (6/5): - Just perfect for a good nights rest
- Ryan (1/5): Horrible! - I don’t know I wasn’t able to make and tried to cancel but they wouldn’t let me! The fact that they wouldn’t answer calls there’s no way to message them. This place is clearly not a good place
- Breana (10/5): - It was a nice and clean place. The accommodations are what I needed. Room was clean and comfy.
- David (6/5): - Owner wanted $30 per dog, I have two. This is an exorbitant fee. I wont bd back.
- Sydney (8/5): Very good -
- Lydia (7/5): Overall was comfortable - It was close to where I needed to be. Needs bathtub facet repairs.
- Robert (10/5): Exceptional - I loved that it was pet friendly N/A
- Johnson (8/5): Very good -
- Lloyd (10/5): Exceptional -
- Victoria (6/5): Pleasant -
- Mary (10/5): - It was nice and clean and I would stay there again. I just wish they have more queen beds me and my husband are rollers and tossing and turning was funny a hell. But good.
- Daniel (1/5): Bad - . Cockroaches galore...stay away..
- Charles (1/5): Bad - Nothing The staff was very rude and disrespectful
- Burto (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice ownership. Very clean and the price is right. They should actually charge more considering what is in this area. Beautiful, small, comfortable. Wifi is fast. Oh, and they are pet friendly. There wasn't anything I didn't like.
- Mamady (8/5): - Great service and excellent customer service
- Morgan (6/5): Pleasant - Price and location No shampoo or conditioner. Window was open when I arrived at 10 pm on 38 degree night.
- Beth (7/5): It was friendly and I paid a great price. - I booked online and it was easy checking in when I arrived.
- Jacqueline (4/5): The wife was a very pleasant woman that's it - In particular nothing exciting here. Seems to be a lot of ppl on drugs almost like a welfare hotel. The beds squeaked all night long. There was loud banging in the middle of the night and water running through the walls so weird. Nothing it seems like that's just how it is
- Kim (8/5): - Our stay was amazing as usual.
We found our room to close to the main entrance which is where orher guest were allowed to smoke cigarettes and weed which we smelled all night.
The property is great except for this issue.
Rate is wonderful and so is the owners!
Would love to see a designated smoking area away from room windows.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Room was adequate but older furnishings. Hollow doors so you can hear noise from hallway.Bathroom had a bowed wall and trim with barely enough space to turn around in. But for the price of $57.00 per night you should expect something not to be perfect. It was typical of an Indian run motel.
- Amanda (7/5): Forgot - No human contact Service
- jerome (2/5): - good location poor state of repair
- Timothy (1/5): Gross - Stinky - bugs - 1/10 Everything
- Sinclair (4/5): All good except that couldn't take a hot shower. - Comfortable bed, and quiet. Couldn't get any hot water, neither from shower, nor from tap in bathroom. There was a red mark in shower showing where to put handle to get hot water; but after about 10 minutes of running, there still wasn't any.
Also, there was no way to turn a lamp on while in bed; so when I got up during night, I had to walk to a switch on the wall to turn a light on. In other rooms I've had in past, it was always possible to turn a lamp on while in bed.
- Kent (6/5): - Staff was helpful, room was clean. Missing light bulb in the bathroom, no hand towels, towels were very stained, no shampoo, no kleenex, no lotion, no in-room coffee, no coffee or breakfast, blankets had holes, no place to hang bath towels, no iron or ironing board, and i think I'll stop there. It's a decent place and even with all it lacks, for the price I'd stay again, I'll just be more prepared next time.
- James (4/5): - Very modest furnishings.
TV remote did not work, tv had to be controlled on the tv
Side wall light did not work
Window was OPEN upon check in, flies in room.
- Diana (4/5): - Honestly, when I arrived at this motel.. I immediately wanted to leave. I just got a very weird vibe from the place. I was so surprised it got such good reviews.
There were some very odd people hanging around the place.. I felt very uncomfortable and unsafe. Then I got into my room and felt so claustrophobic. It was a tiny room.
Some guys were giving each other a haircut outside, and I think people also live there. Such a strange place and vibe.
I would never stay there again!! It's also in such a weird location.. right on an intersection. Yikes!!!!
- Betty (8/5): Very good -
- william (10/5): Bill - A clean bed and decent room at a reasonable rate.
No shampoo or coffee.
- Patricia (10/5): - Ownership was very nice. The room was clean and cozy and the wifi was strong.
- Anthony (4/5): - The accommodations were sparse. The bed and pillows were uncomfortable. There weren't any complimentary items in the bathroom like soap or shampoo. There isn't a coffee maker or breakfast. The TV and AC units worked but not very well.
- William (9/5): Superb -
- Georganne (7/5): Good value. Would stay there again if I was passing through - Clean, acceptable room. GPS directions called for huge detours when the hotel was actually very near the interstate - not their fault. Not elegant but acceptable especially for the price, Too badthere was no breakfast nearby.
- Brad (8/5): - Good, clean, no-frills motel for those on a budget. Close to Watertown shopping/dining options and convenient to all Thousand Island attractions.
- Sean (10/5): - Rooms were clean and affordable, had a microwave and mini fridge. only downside was the lobby smells weird but the rooms were fine :)
- Melody (10/5): Quick Stop - The Royal Inn is a basic hotel. My room had an air conditioner, tv, small table, 2 chairs, queen bed, refrigerator, microwave, hair dryer and towels. It was very clean. I stayed one night on my way to another destination. I arrived after midnight so I rang a doorbell for service and a nice gentleman came to the desk to help me. Not a bad place at all. Plenty of parking. Quiet and reasonable price. I have zero complaints.
- VIOLA (10/5): - This was a day before reservation. The place is about 1 1/2 miles straight drive from Interstate 81. Two gas station/convenience stores, Dunkin Donuts, a nice, small country style restaurant called Longways. I enjoyed their real food breakfast.
The facility itself is old but in pretty good shape IMO. About $80/night, pets accepted with a $25/night, per pet fee. Other available places a ways from here about $300/night, no pets allowed.
The shower handle was difficult until I figured it out. Ask for extra towels if you are use to huge fluffy ones. It has the very basic needs and was an affordable, short notice find.
- Gordon-snyder (6/5): Pleasant -
- William (10/5): - Was a great place for staying one night.
- Johnathan (8/5): - Dated and basic but clean and everything worked. For the price, you really can't complain. I would stay here again.
- Cherie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gary (7/5): Good -
- Mailique (7/5): Good -
- SIMON (6/5): Barely ok for the price paid - Ok for what we paid but barely.
- Kirk (5/5): You get what you pay for I guess. - Inexpensive. Staff was friendly Too many people just hanging around in the parking lot. Like a homeless druggie hangout.
- Virginia (8/5): - This property was basic and comfortable. What would’ve made it a bit better that for the same price there was coffee.
- Nicholas (10/5): - Exceptionally clean. Great price. Great location for going to Fort Drum.
- gene (10/5): - shower slippery
- Peter (6/5): - For the price, you must okay a stay even if they have none of the current amenities larger chains have.
- Cynthia C. (10/5): - Nice folks. Clean rooms. Comfy beds. We stay here frequently.
- Gallant (7/5): short acceptable stay - the stay was acceptable needs some up grades
- Charles (6/5): Pleasant - There was no breakfast that I was aware of.
- LaToddra (6/5): - bathroom gave me the creeps, strong stale/food odor in hallway, pretty standard, would stay again if need be.
- Sharon (9/5): Wonderful - N/C It was clean quite. People were friendly.
- Daniel (6/5): - Horrible location but low cost, so served it's purpose!
- Sue (8/5): Very good -
- Cynthia C. (8/5): - The only disappointment: I booked & paid for a room with 1 queen bed & got a room with 1 double bed! Unfortunately, they had no other options & it was 10 pm so we managed since it was only 1 night.
We do like this property. We stay at least once a year. The folks are nice, the rooms are clean, there is plenty of hot water, & the beds are comfy. The tiny bed this time was disappointing, but at least it was comfy.
- Jonnathon (10/5): - Old, and broken light in the room.
But the customer service made up for any short falls.
Would definitely book again
- David E. (6/5): Cheap hotel - Cheap decent no frills motel. If all you need is a cheap nights stay, then this place is just what you’re looking for.
- Dan (8/5): Very affordable 👌 -
- George (8/5): Very good -
- Patricia (10/5): - This is my dad and I’s third year staying here, it’s been great each time! Friendly staff and easy check-in/check-out process!
