The sofa bed was extremely old, dirty, and uncomfortable. Forget about sleeping; you cannot even sit on it comfortably. The fridge in the room was so noisy that it interrupted our sleep frequently. We stayed 3 nights, and no one cleaned our room. They even asked us to leave the trash bin out.

Do NOT stay here if reliable accommodations matter to you. We stayed over the July 4th weekend and the hotel lost power about 3 hours after we checked in. We went well over 24 hours with no electricity, no A/C, no hot water, no lights, and no refrigeration. We had a small child with us, all of our groceries spoiled, and the hotel had no generators and no real emergency plan.

The only “help” we received was one tiny flashlight that died almost immediately and a glow stick for an entire suite. No bottled water, no snacks, no meal vouchers, no relocation to another hotel, and no meaningful updates.

The worst part was the customer service. Cindy at the front desk acted polite, but every question was met with another excuse or “contact Expedia.” We asked about compensation and relocating guests and were basically told they don’t typically do that. There was no empathy, no ownership, and no effort to make an unacceptable situation right.

My fiancé even injured his shoulder walking into a fixture because our room was completely dark. They gave him a couple of Advil and that was the extent of their concern.

We stayed here last year and had a great experience, but this property has gone downhill. Power outages happen—that isn’t the issue. Leaving paying guests, including families with children, in unsafe conditions for over 24 hours with virtually no support is. Save yourself the disappointment and book somewhere else.

I and my family checked into Sonesta ES Suite Princeton Room 2323 at approximately 11:00 p.m., only to discover that the air conditioning was not working and the room temperature was around 90°F.

At that time, there was only one receptionist on duty. He first guided me through troubleshooting the thermostat over the phone, but unfortunately the issue could not be resolved. He then personally came to the room to assist, but despite his efforts, the air conditioning still would not function.

As a result, my family and I were left in an extremely uncomfortable situation. The room was unbearably hot, and we were sweating throughout the night while waiting for a solution. Eventually, we had to pack up our belongings and relocate to two separate rooms at approximately 2:30 a.m., causing significant inconvenience and disrupting our rest.

The next morning, I attempted to speak with the manager regarding this matter. However, I was informed that the manager was not in today, and when I asked when the manager would be available, I was told that the manager had not been here for quite a while and the staff did not know when he will come.

Given the circumstances and the substantial inconvenience we experienced, I emailed the general manager about the issue. Still not heard anything back after two weeks. Terrible!!!

The staff at this hotel are some of the most professional and helpful people I’ve encountered. Last minute, my mom, who recently had a stroke, needed a handicapped-accessible room. Maria, the manager, quickly moved things around and even offered an early check-in knowing I was driving straight from the hospital. That level of care meant so much to me.

Esperanza in the kitchen was absolutely the sweetest and fastest! She worked nonstop making sure breakfast stayed stocked, clean, and organized. This is my second stay here, and I’d gladly drive extra time to my destination just to stay here again. You truly won’t go wrong booking this hotel.

The housekeeping ladies do knock early, but honestly it helped keep us moving and out on time and they were all super sweet. My front desk guy (he’s Caribbean) was amazing too! Very knowledgeable about the area and great at explaining everything nearby and in the vicinity.

Only suggestion I’d make would be keeping the ice machine running and emptying it more often when it gets too full. They do shut off the in-room ice makers, so make sure to turn yours on as soon as you arrive the ice starts making pretty quickly after that.

Overall, awesome staff and a wonderful experience during a stressful time for my family. Thank you all again!

Room was clean. Nothing fancy - basic TV, no cable. No maid service for four days, but that probably is standard for extended stay places. Only one elevator in the building and it broke Friday. They fixed it, but it took a day.

Breakfast was the usual free fare but more than adequate. You can't get from the rooms to the main building without going outside.

If you're looking for a clean place and a reasonable price without the frills this place will do.

It wasn’t the worst place I’ve ever stayed, but certainly not the best. Checkin took an unusually long time and the person working the desk seemed like they may have been having a rough day. The layout of the property is odd and being in building b made getting breakfast in the morning too challenging for the disabled members of my family. The parking lot and entrance to our building often smelled strongly of marijuana, especially in the evenings. The common areas were clean (other than the aforementioned smell) but a bit rundown. I found the same to be true in our room; no smell and generally clean, but run down. The door seemed damaged making it difficult to open, the sofa had a large gash in it, floors were uneven, some lights didn’t work, and the appliances dented. I did appreciate the ample layout with 2 bedrooms and bathrooms and full size kitchen appliances. There was no housekeeping available for the length of our stay (5 nights) but I was able to have the trash emptied if I placed it outside my room. The beds were comfortable and a full set of extra linens were provided for the sleeper sofa. Noise in adjacent rooms felt excessive at times, but wasn’t constant. This would not be my first choice in accommodations next time in I’m in the area, but I wouldn’t rule it out entirely.

We have previously stayed at this hotel in the past several years. It's nice to have a full size fridge and microwave in the room. This time, some of the fixtures in our particular room (shower grab bar, toilet paper holder) needed to be repaired, and the shower/toilet space was very small. Our room was by one of the outside door entrances and on the side adjacent to a busy highway, so it was noisier than ideal; next time we will request a quieter room. The breakfast bar includes more options than most hotels that offer a breakfast-included perk, and the coffee was good. The staff was friendly. My husband enjoyed swimming in their pool. Overall it is still one of our favorite hotels to stay in the Morris Plains area for overall value and needed amenities.

I was a little nervous booking here since it’s rated as a 3-star hotel, but it truly exceeded my expectations. The employees were wonderful—friendly, helpful, and attentive. Even housekeeping staff in the hallways checked to make sure we had everything we needed, which I really appreciated.

This was a last-minute trip, and I usually prefer to research more beforehand, but I’m so glad we chose this place. The pool area was spotless, and the suite was a great surprise—it included a small kitchenette stocked with everything we needed.

We typically skip hotel breakfast since my husband is very picky, but he absolutely loved the corned beef hash and couldn’t stop talking about it! He’s also particular about eggs, and he had no complaints at all, which says a lot. The kitchen staff was a bit slow at refilling items, but overall, it didn’t take away from the experience.

I would definitely stay here again and would love to come back for a longer visit next time we’re in the area.

So that was disappointing. They did a very good breakfast spread in the morning which was well managed & kept clean. Coffee available 24 hrs. WIfi is metered and television cable options were limited, but I could sign into my movie apps and watch my own shows. It was fine for 10 days.

The hotel staff is friendly and helpful. The room was well laid out and spacious. The hotel rooms are in a different building than check-in, the lobby, breakfast and the pool. It’s not a far walk, but it was unusual. The kitchen is a full kitchen, which is greatly appreciated. The room was comfortable but the carpet had a little damage and discoloration in a small area, looking like it was not clean at first glance but quite visible as the area was prominent. Turns out it was damaged, not unclean. Not perfect, but the room was a very good value and very acceptable. The shower was great and the water was hot. I would certainly stay there again.
