Great night’s sleep
Pros:

I would say this is one of the better Courtyards by Marriott I’ve stayed at. I enjoyed a very comfortable stay and slept through the night, which is the main thing. I thought the pillows were very good, which you never, ever see in a tourist class hotel. They are almost always worn and past their lifespan. I skipped the in-house breakfast, which was not included, and opted for the local pancake house.

Cons:

Was not crazy about it being so close to the main road. I was able to sleep, but it is in a very trafficky area with long lines backed up during rush-hour. I suggest people use Mapleton Road, which is basically the back road — if possible — and skip what the navigation tells you, which is basically to get in line.

Ridiculously bad
Pros:

The location is poor compared to other brands just down the road, checkin experience was as if Napoleon dynamite was running the hotel, the main area does not have ac. If you are a Marriott member with lifetime status, they fail to recognize it and say there’s no upgrades or benefits for you even though the place feels like a ghost town

Convenient Hotel for Princeton U
Pros:

Location. It’s 5 minutes away from Princeton U. It’s just like any other Courtyard.

AVOID if you can. Bedbugs
Pros:

Stayed there for 2 nights. Location is convenient. HOWEVER, it is an older hotel. Elevator was broken during the days I was staying there. Room smelled damp and not fresh when I first walked in. I ended up getting bitten up by bedbugs. Complained to the hotel. They offered me $120, which doesn't even cover one night of stay. On top of that, they even complained I didn't let them know earlier. Very disappointing and surprising for a Courtyard.
