Booked a one night stay and wish we'd had the opportunity to stay longer. A very quiet location (though a little out of the way). Picked this location mainly because we were traveling with our dog and it was pet-friendly. The room had the added benefit of having a back door that led to the grassy area outside our room, which made walking the dog very convenient. Breakfast was included and was better than most free breakfasts offered at hotels, with sausage, scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, etc. Good coffee and a selection of teas that my wife was very happy with. We'll have to find an excuse to visit again.

The hotel was nice, the staff was very nice. Our room had some AC/heating issues, but the maintenance man did what he could to fix them. It was dissapointing that there was no food available at the hotel as we checked in late.

Good if you have to visit ETS

Pros: Request a balcony room on second floor.
Cons: Bathrooms are tiny. Rooms come without fridges. Bar closes at 23pm. Pool heating broke, repairs took over 2 weeks.
Location: You can walk across ETS campus.
Had to stay at the hotel for a longer period in order to work with ETS. Without a car, the hotel is pretty much the only option. Reservation process tends to get messy because of their reception staff. I was forced to move rooms during my stay. Super short notice! Reception unwilling to make up. Also, room service would always forget about something, e.g. replacing Keurig coffee tabs. Dinner menu has no changes so you will be bored after a few days.

Don't Go There

This is the worst hotel I have stayed in the Princeton area...I thought I was booking a 4 star hotel...I was put in the attic of an old house off from the main hotel. There were bugs, no hot water (no bath, only a shower and pedestal sink) and the door in my bedroom led to a fire escape which would not lock. In fact, they had a screen porch side latch that even that wouldn't work. I complianed to management and nothing was done. I checked out in the middle of the night and booked a room at another hotel. Cost me a lot, but my security bwas worth it. This place is out in the middle of nowhere and not confinent to most areas of Princeton. I have no clue why anyone would think this is a 4 star hotel. It should not be rated higher than a 2.5 star, if that.
