The Westin Princeton at Forrestal Village

The hotel was clean and aesthetically pleasing. Nothing was dirty or worn out, and the beds were comfortable, rugs and bathroom very clean. The staff was helpful and kind (when we asked for an extra bath towel, we got it asap). The only thing that made me not give it a 9 or 10 was the restaurant. We had breakfast in the hotel restaurant in the morning, and though the food was okay, all 4 of our menus were sticky with food and stains (mine even smelled bad!) and the menus definitely needed a good wiping down. Also, the water in the outdoor pool looked a little cloudy and the amount of leaves in it showed it needed a bit of a cleaning, too. Otherwise, we had a very nice experience and would stay at this Westin again.

Room was spotlessly clean and super quiet. Lots of well-placed outlets for my phone, laptop, watch, etc etc. Great idea to have a couch with small work table rather than an armchair. (Who uses those?) Eggs Benedict were excellent and smoothie was first rate. Special shout-out to Patima, whose smile lights up the room!

Nice and helpful staff. Clean facilities, good bar and restaurant. The waitress at breakfast was exceptional and very helpful.

The staff was proactive, capable, and super friendly. I travel frequently and have stayed in a *lot* of hotels over the years. To be honest: Westin used to be my go-to, but I had several bad experiences in a row; so started favoring other brands. Based in this experience, I'm going to be back soon. (Service level felt more like Four Seasons than Marriott or Hilton. It was great!)
