the location was acceptable, providing easy access to watford junction train station (only a short walk).
the kettle in the room was broken. some of the lights were also not working. i found this inattentive, as a guest expects all basic amenities to function correctly upon arrival.

The hotel's proximity to watford junction station was useful. i walked to the station in just a few minutes. The bus stop for the harry potter studios shuttle was right outside. they serve starbucks coffee on site, a nice perk for an early start.
i noticed a slight delay during check-in. it was a minor inconvenience though.

the location was acceptable with easy access to nearby facilities.
i was disappointed because the room was not properly prepared. the bedside lamps needed new bulbs. also, the hairdryer stopped working after only 20 seconds, and the replacement had the same problem, this indicated an electrical issue.
