The room was very nice and comfortable, with an extra large comfortable bed. It was spacious, decorated nicely and clean. Everything one would need was there, and I very much appreciate the extra rolls of toilet paper :). The hotel is a quick drive away from Princeton center.

    No bedding provided for unwanted pull out.

    No bedding provided for unwanted pull out. Asked for first floor, (in a wheelchair), given a room on the third floor! If you’re not a coffee drinker the grab and go breakfast offered nothing else! Double charged, only partial refund so far. The problems encountered were the properties fault not the booking agents. Pitiful experience. Cancelled second reservation.

    Parking was good, shower was good.

    Parking was good, shower was good. They seem to be out of everything; vending machine not working, no ice machine, no extra towels, one of the wash towels in the room was dirty. Entire building smelled old and moldy. Carpet was dirty, TV remote needed batteries. My son said he saw a large bug. Receptionist seemed miserable with her job. My husband said there was no breakfast that next morning. Two washers defective in laundry room. No soap for sale. Could not wait to leave.

    We loved the room.

    We loved the room. It was "J" shaped which gave us plenty of room to move around and lots of window light. The pictures on the walls were of special places in Princeton. The staff were very friendly and we felt like they were glad that they could serve us. The breakfast had several choices and lots of everything. There was free parking close to the building.

    We found the area easy to get around by car and simple to find destinations for walking, eating and shopping. We visited the NJ Grounds for Sculpture which is an incredible Garden and Sculpture museum. Art is both in the garden and in enclosed gallery spaces. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves there and will return.

    The hotel is about 15 mins from Princeton University and Nassau Street where there are great places to dine and shop like Dinky Bar, Milk and Cookies, The lavender farm and the blended spoon. The Hotel is fully stocked with the essentials for a long stay. It is also located near groceries and restaurants. We stayed for four nights to visit nearby colleges. The location was perfect for us to take a train from Princeton Jct. to NYC we were there in an hour using NJ Transit. Also travelled to Philly on another day. Its safer and more economical than staying in those cities

    The room was quite spacious and cozy. I liked a lot the private kitchen, it was very good. You can also ask for some dishes to use in your kitchen. The hotel itself had a nice atmosphere, and the staff was always there to help. The small breakfast - coffee and snacks - was very helpful in the morning. In addition, the nature around was wonderful: lots of trees and nice views from the window.

    I loved having access to the pool and gym. They were both very clean and convenient. The room we booked was also surprisingly larger than we expected. Clean and simple. We also loved that there was warm cookies waiting for us at reception! The hotel dinner was reasonably priced and server was kind and friendly.

    The beds are really comfortable and the breakfast was good with a wide variety, including plenty of gluten free options. The desk set up was great and the A/C worked well, even with high temperatures outside! The location is convenient to many things (shopping, restaurants, and Princeton University).

    Convenient location. Easy access to Princeton and surrounding area. The hotel itself is in need of an update to make it more visitor friendly. Everything in our room worked properly and the bed was fairly comfortable. Check-in was easy and checkout went smoothly.
