I see Travel Inn as a work in process. I have stated at the property when it was part of the Wyndham group and all was better for not much more money. I believe the staff when they tell me it will be about a year before they finish all the renovations since the change in ownership.
If you want a cheap, clean place to stay, the Travel Inn is good enough.
There is NO lobby coffee, NO breakfast of any kind (worse than during COVID).
The wifi could be much better. I was not getting satisfactory bandwidth, and I was told the hotel was full, which put a strain on the wifi. I responded that they should use some of the revenue from a full hotel and upgrade their Spectrum service pkg.
I enjoyed the outdoor pool on previous stays, but now the pool is shut down until summer 2027
The beds and Air Conditioning are fine;
Some bathrooms have been updated; others are in process.
I like to watch FOX NEWS and the channel clearly indicated as Fox News was showing Fox Sports -- That might be a problem with Spectrum and their admin.
I have definitely stayed in worse places, and it is hard to find a decent alternative in Watertown for a low price. Just set your expectations low and plan to eat breakfast elsewhere.
