Courtyard

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 10 Sep 2008 rated 10 out of 10.

I would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone. It was very comfortable and extremely clean. It was easy to get to and from Princeton's campus, I just did not like the New Jersey U-turns. This made the location difficult to get to from one direction. I am from a different state that does not make turns like that, it was a little confusing. Once we got to the hotel it was fine.

Positives: Friendly, clean and comfortable.

Negatives: Noisy, very late at night with a younger crowd staying next door.

A great place to stay when visiting Princeton.

Positives: Location. Wonderful park for walking right out the back. Whole hotel non-smoking!

Negatives: Nothing.

Good, clean hotel - but not in Princeton university area, this was located on route 1 highway.

Positives: Great breakfast in the morning.

Negatives: The pool and Jacuzzi were closed, and the shuttle did not run on weekends.

The hotel says renovated, but I had old crummy furniture. My sheets smelled of wet paint.

Positives: The staff is friendly.

Negatives: The hotel is not easy to get to if you are traveling north on route one.

The hotel is right beside the highway but there is no turning lane. The website does not have an accurate address. The hotel was nice, clean, and newly remodeled. The breakfast buffet was extremely overpriced, however there was not many other food options in the area.

Positives: Newly remodeled.

Negatives: Hard to get to.

This is a good location when in Princeton. However, the hotel is being renovated. We had no place to wait for our ride. Upon request, we were provided to chairs. What shocked us was how mad the cafeteria lady was upon finding that we were authorized to sit where we were sitting. She was most unprofessional and if I were her boss I would have fired her on the spot. Breakfast is very expensive.

Positives: Location.

Negatives: Unfriendly staff.

My tub drain was clogged & when I called to let them know it took over an hour to respond, while I was running late for a meeting. The also did a poor job blocking off the construction areas (they were remodeling) from the part of the hotel being kept open.

Positives: Room was clean & comfortable.

Negatives: Customer service was horrible.

While the location for this courtyard by Marriott was very convenient, the overall luxury of the entire experience was lacking. From a wait-staff at the restaurant who never appeared (after a moderate wait time with toddler in tow), to the food bar (with an obvious need to be re-stocked), I¿d rate this particular hotel a fair at best. We opted to travel about an hour away to spend the night at home the second pre-paid night instead of heading back to this severely under-construction and somewhat noisy hotel. (There were two groups of teenagers lining hallways and lobby which though somewhat well-behaved, still added to the generally disarray of the place). Not suitable a romantic getaway. Not recommended for a family with small children. Skip the week-end getaway and just order in pizza. Perhaps worth a try after the completed renovation, but I wouldn't bet on it, as even the layout of the rooms was somewhat lacking as you were required to turn sideways in the bed to watch the 6-station TV. It was overall a disappointing experience that I do not care to repeat.

Positives: Location.

Negatives: Remodeling was everywhere and quite unkempt; teenagers staying were quite loud.

This was a very nice hotel outside of Princeton. It had just undergone renovation and the new decorating scheme was great. Free wireless internet was a plus. The rooms were quiet, the staff friendly, and they had great coffee available in the lobby!

Positives: The color scheme was magnificent!

Negatives: The web site incorrectly listed the pool as closed.

Even though the wireless Internet system was down we really enjoy our stay.

Positives: Room was clean and welcoming.

Negatives: Wireless Internet system was down.

This Courtyard is excellent - up to the standards of the Courtyard chain. A bonus is the Delaware-Raritan Canal Park, a multi-mile scenic path along the river that is great for running or walking, right behind the hotel.

Positives: It is adjacent to the Del-Raritan canal path for exercise.

Negatives: Only problem was that the internet service was out of order.
