Front desk staff was awful on several occasions. Awful
This is my second time staying here and would definitely recommend. The staff is very accommodating and helpful, specifically this trip Jennifer. My boyfriend and I really enjoy the heated pool and was a big reason we decided to stay here again. I wish the had a complimentary breakfast but I’m ok with the fact that there’s a fee. DoorDash and Uber Eats come pretty quickly to this location.
Hotel is too old and beddings are not clean. We had to call reception to replace the beddings but there was no staff. The receptionist told me that O have to come downstairs and get the new beddings and I had to done myself..
The room was clean. The staff was kind. The handicap parking spots were extremely far away from the front of the building. If I had been traveling alone I would have had to pick a different hotel with closer parking.

Jennifer at the front desk was so accommodating and pleasant, it made the whole stay an enjoyable experience
The room was in great condition. The staff at the front desk were very respectful and helpful. My husband and I enjoyed the food, located on the second floor bar/restaurant. The breakfast staff were accommodated.
The fitness center needs to be updated. Several of the cardio machines were “out-of-service”.
Overall, I enjoyed my stay at the hotel

This hotel was a great experience. If you’re visiting the Princeton area it’s great for that purpose. We really enjoyed the pool and the customer service was top notch. The rooms were clean and we did not have any issues. We would definitely stay here again.
The room was in good condition, but there was a motor sound coming from either the hallway or an adjacent electrical closet that went on all night long.
The restaurant was also closed even though the google search stated that it was open and so I had to go to another nearby restaurant for dinner.
