Lighting in the rooms are quite poor. Dead bug in bathroom. Hotel looks like it's on the verge of closing- not the same place it was 2 years ago. Breakfast appears to be an additional charge.

Comfortable, reliable stay during an emergency We ended up staying at the Holiday Inn Princeton unexpectedly during a power outage emergency, and I’m really glad we chose this hotel. Check-in was quick and stress-free, which mattered a lot given the circumstances. The room was clean, quiet, and warm, and it felt like a safe place to land for the night when we were worried about losing power at home. The bed was fine…not the most comfortable I’ve ever had, but totally okay for a night’s rest. Everything in the room worked, the shower was hot, and the property overall was well maintained. Staff were kind and understanding, which I really appreciated. Breakfast was NOT included and was a separate fee, but overall this hotel gave us peace of mind when we needed it, and I would stay here again

Clean room, comfy bed, TV was a little funky with the channels but that's probably on me for not having cable in over a decade so I was lost, AC was fire. Me and partner had a lovely time

I did book the room with two Queen beds, but while checking in was offered only two Double beds. As the Queen beds rooms were occupied. Why did Expedia suggest that the rooms were available?
