    Though dated, I found it to be clean. Bar & Cleaning Staff are all helpful and friendly. The pub offers convenience as there is a kitchen with descent prices. Watford station is under a 10 minute walk. The en-suite shower was super handy!

    Fantastic location in town. Comfy, clean rooms. The pub downstairs had excellent food and great entertainment. We stayed overnight prior to going to the Harry Potter Studios Tour - which was an easy 5 minute drive away.
