This is our second time staying at this hotel, as we have to visit Princeton every other month or so.
Last time was better. While we heard doors slamming, I thought it was bc we were right next to the stairs. This time we weren’t, but we still heard doors slamming. Someone’s dog running around above us. Our next door neighbors talking and laughing at 1am. So I think there just isn’t soundproofing.
There had been a leak (I’m assuming) and the ceiling was either patched badly or it was still slowly leaking and causing issues.
There was no drain plug in the bathtub, so my kid couldn’t take a bath. I didn’t call for that, just told him to take a shower instead.
The biggest disappointment was the pool. Last time there were multiple people in the pool and the kids had fun. This time, I was wondering why it was dark and empty. Well, simply opening the door caused a wave of chlorine potential enough to make us cough and our eyes red - without even entering into the room. I would not let us enter. When I mentioned it to the front desk, he said it was normal. It’s not.
The breakfast is good for hotel - sausage, scrambled eggs, biscuits, gravy, oatmeal, cereal, waffles, and pastries. The attendant was very good- sweeping, refilling, etc.
Is this a bad hotel? No. But if you’re a light sleeper or have kids who want to play in the pool there are plenty others in the area.
