The space was large, the room amenities sufficient, the free breakfast appreciated, the parking convenient, and the location not far from the national park. I enjoyed my stay at this hotel.

The Watford proved immaculately clean. All the staff were super helpful and polite. The towels were fluffy and smelled wonderful. The beds and pillows were super comfortable. I was not a fan of the plastic-lines chafing dishes for hot food and chose to avoid those - a personal preference. The self-made pancakes and waffles were delicious and there were plenty of cold items to choose from. The dining area was very well attended and spotlessly clean. I would absolutely stay here again if I were in the area and highly recommend.
