Checknin was quick and fast. Our room smelled of stale urine. Bathrooms were very outdated and small. We were able to switch rooms and the staff was very accommodating after requesting to move. Breakfast was ok, not many options.

We checked and went to our room. Sat on the couch in the room and within 5 started getting bit by bugs. There was a partial chew dog chew stuck in the couch. Complained and was moved to another room upstairs. No refund was giving. Left early to go home, but thought we would get some free continental breakfast on the way out. It was chopped up summer sausage, frozen egg patties and eggs waffles. Needless to say, we didn’t eat and just wrote it off as the worst stay I’ve ever had.

My husband and I have a recent history of mold toxicity. This in turn makes us both hypersensitive to mold spores. So, the room smelled horrible as soon as we entered. It smelled very musty and like old urine. The towels & washclothes are about 5 years past retirement. The bed was like sleeping on the floor. We came to Watertown to visit family. We decided to make the best of it but the night before our departure I had to take my husband to the ER for a mold sensitivity reaction. He was treated and then we returned to sleep and leave in the morning for home. Overnight he began to become violently ill again and I noticed an active leak from the toilet. I saw black mold up under the back of the toilet. Tons of moisture in the room. When we left I alerted the front desk of the leak and her response was that the water lines sweat and this always happens in the warmer months. Essentially a breading ground for mold spores. To be fair there is a lot of flooding in the Midwest currently so there are more mold spores in the air, but in combination with what is going on in that room, really put his immune system into overdrive. Wierd how as soon as I got him to the car, he immediately started feeling better. My suggestion is to keep looking for a different hotel like the Holiday Inn Express. Ramkota is way over priced for a Red Roof Inn experience.
