Worse hotel food I have ever eaten. Cheap cheap meat used in burger. Service was painful. No cold glasses for beer. Thankfully there is Uber eats.

Stayed here with my family while visiting Sesame Place. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable, the refrigerator is so helpful when traveling with kids. Lots of free parking and it's only 15 minutes from Sesame Place which was convenient. The tvs can stream Amazon and Netflix which was a huge plus with a very tired toddler who wanted to watch her shows. The pool was a nice temperature but the hot tub was a bit on the cooler side-I did have a two year old with me so any time spent in there relaxing wasn't going to happen anyway. They had a crib available which was great. The only issue we had was with the dining in the lobby. We went down to eat dinner and there was only one person working the bar AND the kitchen so the full time we waited to order until our last dish came was over 1.5 hours. The man who was doing it all was so nice and it was not his fault that he was left with no help and the food was good. But if you are traveling with kids and thought the restaurant in the hotel would be easy and convenient, you might want to have a backup plan before your hungry kids start to lose it. It would be great if they had some complimentary coffee and tea in the lobby since you cannot really get a coffee you pay for quickly and that little room coffee maker just doesn't cut it! There's also not a lot around unless you head back to the Sesame Place area (as far as I could tell). Other than that it was a good stay for us.

We stayed one night at the Marriott Courtyard. The staff was very pleasant and efficient checking us in. We requested highest floor available, and were given a room on the top floor. The room was very clean and in great condition. It was also very quiet.

We were in Princeton for a sports event, and traveling with our dog. This was an easy spot - just ~20 minutes south of the university - with easy access on and off the highway. The room was spacious, well-lit, and had all the amenities we needed. We were at first worried to be placed across the elevator, but noise (on a Saturday night) was almost non-existent. We had dinner delivered from a nearby Italian place, which was seamless and speedy. There are lots of large, grassy areas for taking the dog out at night, and stretching legs in the morning. Overall, very pleased with our stay and will definitely book again when in the area.

The Courtyard Ewing Marriott was an amazing place to have our wedding party guests stay for our wedding weekend. Michele Chu was an incredible partner to us helping us to sort through all logistics, answering any and all questions, and helping us when any issues arose. Our wedding guests had positive things to say about the cleanliness and niceness of the rooms and hotel. We would definitely recommend staying here!

Stayed 2 nights. LIKES: Comfortable bed Quiet Reasonable food in "restaurant" DISLIKES: Carpet on 5th floor (see photos) in desperate need of cleaning Painfully slow elevators Poor room lighting Erratic hot water Towels akin to 150 grit sandpaper SUMMARY: This was a bit of a disappointment, considering the room rate. No excuses for the carpeting, but it also goes along with some outdated furnishings in the rooms that have seen better days. Two days later, I stayed on the 45th floor of another hotel in Niagara and it took the same time to get to that floor as it did to get to the 5th floor in this Marriott. So while there were a few things to like here, there's definitely some work to be done.

Was in town for a family wedding and this was the hotel for guests. Being a Marriott was expecting a nice stay. We should have known from the reception from the front desk this was going to be a hotel we should not have chosen. Showed up around 10:45 pm, front desk was unoccupied and no notes or whereabouts of the clerk. I went behind the desk and even walked over to the back room, nothing. Another guest arrived and called the desk, the phone rang and rang until finally the clerk showed up. Seemed to be annoyed that we interrupted whatever they were doing. Very cold reception, not a hello, welcome or anything, just ID, phone number and handed us our room key. As we were staying for the wedding did not even get a reception bag, my wife had to ask for it. Again, very cold not even enjoy your stay and thanks for choosing us. This is why I prefer Hilton when I have a choice very friendly and always greet you with a smile. Obviously, Marriott skimps on customer service, not the first time I have dealt with cold clerks from them. Got to our room and had a very musty smell so we opened the window. Upon checking through the room, we found what looked like mold on the ceiling, a door for the dresser with no handle and a red stain of some sort on the rug. The tub/shower stall had extra hair still in it and the tub floor looked like it needed a good scrubbing. Since the hotel was full, we didn’t have much recourse. Reported the issues to the morning clerk and they said they would contact the engineer. Don't know if they ever came to the room but nothing changed before we checked out on Sunday. Overall, a very dated hotel who needs a facelift and a good cleaning. Overall a very subpar experience from this chain.

Hotel is in an ok location. Is quite and has plenary of parking. Staff is welcoming and helpful and kind. Rooms are large and clean. The hotel is showing its age a bit. It is time to remove carpeting and upgrade the beds. Comfortable stay however. Would stay again.

We just got back from 2 nights at the Courtyard Ewing as part of a Sesame Vacation package and we can not recommend the hotel enough. The room was clean, comfy and quite large. Every staff member we met was friendly and helpful. The breakfast which was part of our vacation package was delicious. We would definitely choose this hotel again!

the entire staff made us feel welcomed and at home at the same time ....all of our needs were taken care of and our expectations were far exceeded. I wish that I had the staff roster so that I could give special mention to each and everyone of them. try the bistro , we did and enjoyed it.

Friendly, helpful, accommodating - everything executed with a genuine, kind smile. ALL staff. I was so impressed with the positive energy. They have a Bistro downstairs if you don't feel like ordering out or going out for food. No room service. Clean. Covid policy - you have to request your room cleaned. I was good with just having them deliver materials, exchange towels, and take garbage - requests that they responded to immediately. Close (6 minutes) to TCNJ. Great week!

Quiet, clean, Large nice modern lobby area for eating, Large quiet public lounge area with foot rests in front of TV. I didn’t get up early enough to have the complimentary breakfast. Bed was comfy, room was very clean, furniture in good condition, but bathroom needed to be refreshed. Shower rod was rusted, ceiling needed a refresher paint, tile above bathtub was black - desperately needed to be re-cauked. I don’t like spending $300/night on a room that doesn’t have updated bathroom. Also not thrilled with the refillable shower wall shampoo/soaps. Though convenient to pump, I prefer individual sealed shampoo in public hotels. Immediate vicinity food choices were not great. Located in a shabby shopping center under a giant ?phone tower. It’s worth it to drive 10 minutes away to US-1 for other choices

I have been staying at Marriott hotels for nearly 40 years. I am one of the first rewards member. We were booked and stayed at this hotel for 5 nights. For four of those nights we could not get the TV to turn off by the remote or the buttons on the TV. The only way to turn it off was by unplugging it. We reported it twice they sent someone to “fix” it once but still the only way to turn it off was to unplug it. The problem is clearly the tv am not the remote since all other functions on the remote worked and the tv would not turn off by the remote, tv, or phone app. Very frustrating and annoying to have to unplug it every night and plug it back in every morning. While I don’t need my room cleaned daily this is the first hotel I’ve stayed in since the Pandemic that doesn’t at least clean the room after the third night. We ended up having to empty the overflowing trash ourselves. Yes I know we could have requested it but we shouldn’t have to. At the very least the room should be checked for trash once in a while. The light over the microwave and fridge did not work. A power outlet next to the bed appeared to be hastily and sloppily installed. The staff we encountered we very friendly. The room itself was clean. The carpet appeared to be recently updated. Bathroom was clean but somewhat dated with broken tiles in the shower. The beds were comfortable which frankly was the main reason we didn’t check out after the second or third night. In conclusion, a simple quality check in between check-ins could avoid most of the issues we experienced. Especially things like empty dispensers and non working lights. Whoever installed the power outlet next to the bed should not have been paid. My rating is based on the lack of attention to the little things which caused frustration and inconvenience during our stay.
