Everything is clean, the bed was very comfortable, and the staff - including the staff in the restaurant - made me feel welcome. 

The linens on the king-size bed seem to have been made for a queen size bed. The bottom sheet did not reach under the mattress, the top sheet was similarly narrow, and the blanket didn't even reach the side edge. While the hotel has a whole seemed in good shape, the elevator was really showing its age and looked shabby. The only choices for the coffee maker were three items for decaf coffee. No regular coffee. No tea.

The hotel entrance is nice and wide. Room sizes are nice like Marriott hotels. Free open parking. The hotel is in a peaceful area standing by itself. It's relatively close to Princeton University.

Bathroom tiles had mold. The AC was making a horrible noise all night long. Room 4203 There's no night life around. Elevators have not been updated probably since the 80's. One was out of service and the only working one would stop randomly at floors and not do anything forcing me to take the stairs to go to the lobby.

1. Location was awesome for our purposes 2. Breakfast was amazing and the staff was great. 3. Front desk professionals were friendly, efficient, and helpful 4. Very peaceful and professional atmosphere.

The primary reason we selected this hotel was for the swimming pool for the kids. We had a famliy event to attend in the area and the kids remaining behind were to go swimming. The only problem being, the pool was closed that day for maintenance, something that should have been kown.

I actually really liked that it still looks like the 90s in there. This place looks like it was built in 93 and then never really updated. It's kind of neat. The gym had an actual hammer strength leg press which made me happy.

The bar closes too early. Some things like the hot tub look permanently broken. They had a water shut off planned which I wish I would have known about before I booked but it ended up fine.

24 hour brewed coffee in lobby was great. Room was excellent. Keurig Coffee brewer in room was excellent with good selection of K-Cups. Bed was very comfortable. Staff were very friendly, helpful and professional

Was supposed to get a "good breakfast" which was included in price. However due to COVID the restaurant was closed so only got a grab and go, mini bagel, piece of fruit and juice. Restaurant will open again this week. On my previous stay two years ago got a great breakfast, with buffet and cooked to order omelets

We enjoyed the pool. The pool was clean and easily accessible. It was well stocked with towels. Further, the pool temperature was perfect. There were lounge chairs as well. Prompt resolution of a problem with the room.

I requested to change rooms since the first room offered was a room with a potential adjoining room - and I could hear the noise (TV) from my neighbor's room. My request was promptly honored.

Comfortable and clean rooms, big hotel with a lot of facilities, in a quiet area, perfect to relax

Not a problem for us, but it is a 10 min drive from downtown Princeton. Quite secluded location. We wanted some peace and quiet after spending a few days in NYC, but if you want to walk to restaurants/bars, this is not the hotel for you. Definitely need a car to get around.

I thought the breakfast was good but way overpriced. Forty-two dollars for a buffet is a bit excessive. The freshly squeezed orange juice was good too.

The sauna wasn't working. On Saturday there were too many people making noise and dancing to the music on their boom box. When I mentioned the noise to one of the employees, he stated he didn't hear anything. Well, of course he didn't hear anything, they had the common sense to turn if off until he left.
