Our stay at Angel's Nest Bed and Breakfast in Weatherford was supposed to be a special weekend…read moreaway, but unfortunately, it became one of the most uncomfortable and concerning lodging experiences we have ever had. My husband is meticulous when it comes to planning surprises. He loves taking care of every detail, and he had reserved a room at Angel's Nest along with an additional package for our weekend. Friday morning, the owner contacted him to let him know that we were being upgraded to another room and assured him that the package he purchased would be moved to the upgraded room and everything would be ready for our arrival that evening. We were provided a code to enter the bed and breakfast as well as a code for our room. After having dinner in Weatherford, we arrived that evening. The exterior of the property is beautiful, and initially we were excited about our stay. When we reached our assigned room, however, the keypad would not light up and the door was locked. After several attempts, we called the owner. She gave us the location of a hidden key and instructed us to use it to enter the room. When we opened the door, another couple was already occupying our room. They had unpacked their belongings, eaten most of the chocolate-covered strawberries that were part of our package, opened and drank our champagne, and were in the private hot tub engaged in intimate activity. We immediately closed and locked the door and reported what had happened while still on the phone with the owner. What happened next was even more concerning. We were instructed to go down the hallway to Room 2 because we were told no one was staying there and that we could use that room instead. We followed those instructions, opened the door, and walked in on another couple in bed. At this point, we had now been given access to two occupied guest rooms. We later learned that these guests apparently had canceled reservations and were no longer supposed to have access to these rooms. That raised an even larger concern for us: How were people who were no longer assigned to these rooms still able to access and occupy them? More importantly, if we stayed, what assurance did we have that someone else could not be given access to our room and walk in on us? This became a serious privacy, safety, and security concern, not simply an inconvenience or a reservation mix-up. What was also extremely disappointing was how the situation was handled afterward. The owner never came downstairs while we were there to personally address what was happening, determine why unauthorized guests were occupying two rooms, or provide us with reassurance regarding the security of the property. After taking some time to process everything that had happened, we made the decision to leave. We simply did not feel safe or comfortable staying there. We also felt dismissed rather than genuinely accommodated. My husband had carefully planned this weekend, and that very morning had been personally contacted about our upgraded room. We arrived expecting the room and package that had been promised to us. Instead, we walked in and watched another couple consuming the chocolate-covered strawberries and champagne that he had purchased for us while occupying the private hot tub we had been looking forward to enjoying. We were then directed to another room, only to walk in on another couple in bed. Beyond the disappointment of losing what was supposed to be a special experience, the lack of apparent safety and security protocols was deeply troubling. Our concern is not simply that someone was accidentally placed in the wrong room. Two separate rooms that we were specifically instructed to enter were already occupied. That should never happen at any lodging establishment. Guests deserve to know that when they close and lock their bedroom door, another guest will not be provided a code, key, or instruction that allows them to enter. Unfortunately, we left feeling that more concern was shown toward the individuals occupying rooms they were reportedly no longer authorized to use than toward us--the paying guests who had actually reserved the accommodations. As first-time guests, we expected hospitality, communication, accountability, and most importantly, a reasonable level of privacy and security. Instead, what was supposed to be a thoughtfully planned weekend ended before it ever began. The property itself is beautiful, but based on our experience, significant improvements need to be made regarding room access, canceled reservations, guest privacy, security procedures, and how serious incidents are handled.

My adult son stayed in the Rose Room, while my husband and I stayed in the Cowboy Room. There was a pleasant common area outside the rooms. That evening, the hosts did a thoughtful turn-down service with chocolates, ice, and bottled water, (we stayed 3 nights but the turn-down service was only 1 night). The refrigerator was stocked with complimentary beverages. The beds were comfortable, the sheets high quality, and we slept very well. Built in 1889, the property is impressive with a lot of historic charm, beautiful lighting, and a pool and spa out back. Breakfast the next morning was lovely, and John chatted warmly with us before leaving us to enjoy our meal. Unfortunately, things became much less comfortable the following day. Connie greeted my husband and son with warm hugs but barely acknowledged me. When she did decide to speak to me it was about the breakfast the day before, which John had served, she had mistakenly made me a fruit cup containing yogurt after I had requested dairy-free food. I understood mistakes happen, I saw the yogurt and I didn't eat it, but I became concerned because I had experienced significant digestive discomfort after eating my "dairy-free" omelet. Thinking something else caused it, I ate the omelet again the second morning and experienced the exact same issue within an hour. Perhaps the veggies were cooked in butter without realizing its impact on dairy-sensitive guests. One interaction with Connie left us particularly uncomfortable. She noticed blueberries on my husband's shirt and began scolding him. When she asked what I wanted her to do about it, I told her he does his own laundry and to ask him. She then pulled my husband by the neck into her chest and said, as if speaking to a child, "Oh but they need to know someone cares about them!" I found this comment hurtful, judgmental, and territorial. After 38 years of marriage, if my husband, who is now retired, wants to help out by doing his laundry while I work full-time with orthopedically impaired students and commute an hour and a half daily, I'm going to let him. Of course she didn't take the time to learn any of this about us and instead decided to judge us! Later, in the guest common area, Connie came up and scolded my husband for not having a shirt on, then insisted on taking his stained shirt to wash--despite him explaining he had already dabbed the stain out himself. The exchange became increasingly uncomfortable, and I eventually had to step in and ask her to stop. In my opinion, she blurred appropriate boundaries. We paid $2,020 in full 8 months in advance for privacy. It is NOT appropriate to be pushy, push personal judgements, or physically pull a guest's head into your chest. Unwanted touching crosses a major line. We were also concerned about 2 visible cameras in the common area. We couldn't determine if they recorded audio, but being observed in shared guest spaces made us uncomfortable. An intermittent buzz kept going off until my husband put his shirt on, making him feel monitored. Guests should be clearly informed if cameras are present. Lastly, for Texas summer visitors: water alone doesn't replace electrolytes, let alone purified water, which was provided, but void of electrolytes. I experienced severe leg cramping and recommend bringing proper hydration supplements. Lancaster Manor is a beautiful historic property with great beds and a lovely breakfast. However, the host interactions made the stay feel awkward and tense. Hospitality requires being attentive while knowing when to give guests space--we needed less bossing, more listening and engaging conversation instead of being talked at and judged. I wouldn't mind going back to Texas but I will not be staying here when I do!
