We stayed one night when we were moving our son into Princeton and loved it. Even with a wedding going, it was quiet by 10pm, we were able to leave a packed car full of stuff safely overnight and I loved the proximity to the campus. Plus, the free breakfast was amazing as well as the cafe, where we had dinner after a very long drive from Boston. We will be back!

The staff was particularly accommodating and professional. They did everything they could to accommodate my sensitivity to fragrance - much appreciated. My only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that I feel hotels should refrain from using air freshener in common areas. It's toxic to a growing number of people and does not enhance the stay. The hotel smells just fine without it.
