mixed feelings about this stay

moldy oranges disruptive noise

the location was fairly convenient for exploring the area. the room was generally clean on arrival.

the breakfast situation was a bit of a letdown. pastries tasted stale also oranges in the bowl had mold. i also heard lots of noise from above during the night so, this impacted my sleep quality significantly.

convenient location wide selection coffee machine

The location is convenient. It is close to the tube station to london. it is also about a 20-minute walk from watford junction station. (this made getting to the harry potter studio tour very easy.) the room featured a fridge, microwave, coffee machine, and kettle. breakfast offered a wide selection of foods, including cereals, toasts, and yogurts.

the room i had was too bright early in the morning, as the curtains did not block the light well.
