you get what you pay for, biggest complaint was that unless you are 90 lbs. soaking wet you will not fit on the toilet stuffed in the small space between the wall and the sink

When you check in there is a sign that says $150.00 fine for smoking on property. But as you enter the motel to the left of the door there was a huge pile of cigerette butts. Hair all over the bath tub,carpet dirty.Very stained sheets. Clean but stained. NEVER AGAIN!!!!

I needed a place to stay for cheap near Boston. This fit that description! There was free parking, wifi, and a small continental breakfast 7-10. Nothing fancy, you could tell its not the most modern place ever but I guess you get what you pay for. My room was located next to the exit/entrance which I felt made it very noisy in my room. If I had a longer […] stay I would have asked to switch rooms. Read more

We had no issues, room was clean,breakfast was good and service was good also. I recommend it .

Great location if you have a car. Free parking and internet. Easy access to mass pike and cambridge. Clean large rooms are rare on this area. One of the better super 8s.

I will never stay again. After being kept up all night by a loud lobby family I asked if I could change rooms the second night because the noise started happening again at 10:00pm. I was refused by the desk clerk and, when I asked to speak to the manager, was treated with derision and ridicule to the extent I felt humiliated and threatened. My first […] thought was to call the police but then I decided to leave immediately and on my way out dropped the key on the desk. The desk clerk intercepted me outside and threw the keys at me! And then started yelling racial epithets claiming I was racially biased!! I felt physically threatened and was ready to defend myself, but luckily he backed off. Thankfully, hotels.com took care of me when I found myself shelter-less in Boston, but I highly recommend you do not go here! Read more

We brought two vans with 15 people. They have an open lot to park in and the rooms are pretty sound proof so I didn't worry about the students not getting enough sleep because of outside sound. The cleaning supplies' smells almost moved me to tears each time I walked in. ...strong enough to create a headache.

Nothing extravagant but worth the money

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Indoor parking a plus, modern, updated rooms, could use new bedding/bedspread. Needs updating in the entrance/lobby, stairs tiled, a bit dirty. Staff very nice, great breakfast included, for the price in that area, can't beat it!!!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

If you need a room to get by, this will do. Made us feel like teenagers with a cheap hotel.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Overall very nice staff. Got a call in the early morning hours telling me we left the light on in the inside of our car which was very nice. Also got extra help from staff member behind the desk in the morning helping us find directions to our destination.

It seems the Boston suburbs, even relatively affluent ones like Newton, Watertown and Waltham, manage to keep their look unassuming. As soon as my mom said "Where would they put a motel around here," the Super 8 popped up among what seemed to be residential and commercial stuff as well as a river bed. The plant itself was a bit slapdash, stairs and […] downstairs rooms and such placed wherever they fit, and no lobby to speak of. The garage was just an exterior area sheltered by an extanded second floor. But the room itself was scrupulously clean and well tended. Staff were polite and pleasant. WiFi was included. If you're looking for a place to hang your hat and rest your bones in the course of a specific event nearby, this is as good a place for the price as you're likely to find. Read more

This is not a good hotel. It is noisy, dirty and in disarray.

Nice inexpensive hotel. Free WiFi! I am a student that came into town for a conference and it was very good for my needs at a low price.

Convenient, affordable and comfortable. No complaints!

3 night stay at this motel. Front Desk hospitality is awesome. They are friendly and go out of their way to make you feel welcome. They have a free breakfast that ends at 10am with a large variety of choices. Free coffee in the room. Except for one neighbor who kept slamming door (which you find at most hotels), it was very quiet. (tip: turn on the […] heat/fan in the room and it drowns out noise) Housekeeping does an excellent job. I would definitely stay here again and recommend this motel for those on a budget. Read more

Nothing special but good price

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel is in need of some maintenance. Rugs in the halls are quite tattered. There is a covered parking garage which is very convenient. There was no inclement weather to shield me from during my trip but it was still appreciated. And as the weather cools a car outside gets frost on the window and one in the garage doesn't. So avoided the aggravation […] of scraping windows. The continental breakfast is limited and the dining area, right in the entry way by the front desk is tiny. There are only two small tables and eight chairs. And there are at least two rooms with doors that open right into this area. I recommend asking for a room on the second floor. That would minimize noise from foot traffic of guests coming and going. When I found the hotel I expected I would hear quite a bit of traffic noise. I didn't and that was a pleasant surprise. My room was above the garage and on the side away from the road. I'm sure that contributed to the quiet but still it was a surprise that traffic noise wasn't apparent. Maid service was inconsistent. One day they didn't replace the shampoo, another the coffee and another the cream and sugar kit. The bed was always made and the towels, towels, toilet and sink always cleaned. All in all I'd say it's a decent if somewhat tattered budget hotel. As long as I'm on my current budgets I'd stay there again. Read more

Hotels in Boston are the most expensive in the country! The Super 8 in Watertown is close to downtown and Cambridge in a nice neighborhood. Although the hotel building is a little old, it was very clean and comfortable and I'd patronize them again.

The view was awful, it was someone's backyard. It was extremely loud I didn't expect much better for the price. If you don't. Plan on spending a lot of time in the hotel you just need a plae to crash it's worth the price.

Genuine Expedia guest review

nice value. easy access to Boston but not actually in Boston.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This hotel is truly disgusting. I can't believe that they are allowed to remain open for business.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Parking free is good point. however room was too dirty.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The bed had black hairs on the sheet, inside blanket, pillow case and in the bathtub. In the outer hallway there was ttrash and garbage emiting the most vile odor. Seeing the filth, my children would not let me stay there and I certainly was not going to stay. It was disgraceful, horrible and disgusting. I went to the front desk to get my money back […] and the room clerk was not surprised that I would not stay and then said, "I can give you another room". Why would I stay under the circumstanxces I out lined above???? Read more

Hotel was clean, friendly staff, king size beds were comfortable. Reccomend bringing your own pillows.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Was in town a weekend when hotel space was difficult. Place was quite satisfactory under the circumstances. And you don't have the steep parking charges of hotels in Cambridge.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We came in late at night and were too tired to consider finding another alternative, but without exaggeration, I cannot recall staying at a hotel this bad. Our room (216) had mold and peeling paint. And even if they had vacuumed (which clearly they hadn't), the carpeting was so stained it was disgusting. The shower curtains were moldy. The desk drawer […] which was separated from the track was full of pocket debris – spare change, several pieces of candy, a plastic knife, gum wrappers, 3 batteries and random dirt. Hotels.com should drop this place from its offerings. Read more

the hotel was nice and clean but they do need to make there bathrooms a little nicer toilets are way to low for when u have a elderly person with you. but all in all the rooms were very clean and it was very quiet in the hotel.

smelled like antiseptic, didn't feel safe outside. Bare bones amenities.

Breakfast serving and atmosphere may need more friendly and on customer focused approach.

big and clean room with mini freezer. very near Boston. shower is fine.

Satisfactory

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

It was overpriced for the amenities.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel is OK with free breakfast, parking, and internet. The price is reasonable.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Friendly, helpful staff make it easy to settle in. Motel is close to centre of Watertown and close to bus connections to Harvard and Boston. Free wifi was much appreciated as many more expensive hotels in the cities charge for this. Rooms are clean and large. Go to Stellina's restaurant for the lamb Ragu.

Genuine Expedia guest review

It was just ok. Nothing fancy...clean enough...just ok if you need a place to sleep for the night. Wouldn't run back, but it wasn't horrible.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

we always stay here when we go to boston. It is only a 10 minute walk to catch the bus and a Dominos pizza right across the street, and a Dunking Donuts just down the street. Rooms are clean and help is friendly.

Genuine Expedia guest review

the room had one double bed, which is what I reserved. the bathroom was very small, had to maneuver when you are drying off after shower. The curtian were hanging off their hooks making it so they wouldnt cover the whole window. Hotel signs say they were under renovation. In need of a little spruce up. overall great value for the location. one would […] expect to pay a lot more for the Boston area. Read more

Enjoyed it immensely. Enjoyed the complimentary breakfast especially because we had commitments to be at early and it was so convenient, not to mention cost saving, to be able to have breakfast right there. Everything was comfortable and we would come back again.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

very nice--second visit to watertown,ma and second use of a hotel that was being renovated during our stay--not good

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Provided a clean room, pleasant service, and convenient parking at a very cheap price. I used this for a business trip in Boston and this provided me with what I needed and allowed me to save money. I wouldn't advise this location for a romantic getaway nor a nice family trip but it did the job for me.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

My stay was pleasant, and I would recommend this hotel. It was relatively easy to find and a good alternative to more expensive hotels closer to downtown Boston. Free Internet and breakfast were great, and parking was not a problem. The hotel has recently been renovated, but it still shows its age in places. The windows in particular seemed old and […] flimsy, and I didn't feel as secure as I wanted. The hotel is loud, and I could hear everything going on in the hallway. The doors are set to slam, and slam they do. Read more
