OVERALL A GREAT CHOICE!
Overall we love staying at this location 4 miles from our son’s house. Although the rooms are worn and need deep cleaning, as well as a refresh, the public spaces in the hotel are outstanding. Barbara, Jocelyn and Ashanti at the Front Desk are A+. Nadine, Madhu & Sam in the Breakfast Bar are so friendly and helpful. The Bar is such a nice option for dinner. Nelly in Housekeeping is a lovely person but managing staff must be a real challenge since rooms are never that clean or sanitized. Examples: the baseboards and wall under the headboards have a layer of dust. When the bathroom is cleaned between guests the shower liner should be fresh and clean—we had to ask! Debris was under the bathroom vanity so you know the floor wasn’t cleaned. Suggestion: increase the number of Queen bed options vs so many rooms with Full beds, that would be a wise change. Just my 2 cents as a world traveler!

Liked: Cleanliness
"The hallway smelled of possible mold or the rug may be getting old. The coffee in the room consisted of 2 tea's and 2 decaffeinated none regular. This is big in the morning.Old construction but kept up good. The shower head was on so tight you cold not adjust the spray head nor the angle of the water spray. The exhaust in the bathroom was not very good which caused moisture in the room and could cause potential mold. We will be back, its close convenient great outside atmosphere.

Disappointing
When I arrived, I was told to take an elevator to the guest floor – the space was dirty and the elevator seemed like the service elevator. Then I arrived at the room that was about as far from the photos as a guest could imagine: dingy, dark, worn furniture, cold. So I returned to the front desk and asked for another room, which I have never done before. The front desk attendant was lovely and helpful, and I was given a room that looked like the hotel photos on the website; however, it was still cold in atmosphere and the bed was uncomfortable. I ventured away from my usual property choices in Princeton, and I will never do so again.
