The Watford Hotel was clean. The breakfast had very good options. However, slept poorly as the bed was ultra firm. Our adult son stayed with us for one night, and stated he didnt sleep well in his bed either. Bed was too hard.

Stayed 2 nights here and unfortunately would never return. Room was right above the front desk and both nights, in the middle of the night, there was very loud banging and cart type noises for a couple hours which kept us awake. Bed was also uncomfortably hard. Highlight was the coffee/tea bar if the water is hot…

Stay here. Comfortable
The bed and sheets were very comfortable!
The breakfast buffet was great.
I’ll stay there again every time I’m in the area.

Would stay here again!
We stayed at 4 hotels over a span of a week and this was by far the best one we stayed at. Clean and quiet.

Room was beautiful and clean with a great bed . But no hot water always just cool . The Bar that was advertised on the property wasn’t even open . Upon check inn front start less then nice . Continental breakfast very basic . Very limited on places to eat , most close down early or closed on Sundays . We could hardly find a place to eat at all on Sunday !!

Worst check-in experience ever
Tried to check in for 10 minutes. Followed their “lift phone” directions 4x and no one showed up. Finally went through “EmployeesOnly” door and found someone. She yelled at us - raised her voice - and told us to get out of her space. When we tried to explain that we had tried the phone procedure she said we just should have waited, we had no business looking for an employee. Nice enough hotel, terrible impression. Would look elsewhere next time.

Rough start with new owners.
Place looks great upon arrival. Decently cleaned.
Top reason for choosing the location was it had bar (very small town with limited options) but it was closed. Told they are waiting for license.
Bed was well worn.
Breakfast didn’t include hot eggs, no breakfast meats, no orange juice. Told due to supply issues. Did receive $15 discount due to these issues.
