The room was fine. A bit dated, but clean. The beds and bedding were comfortable. The showerhead was very weak, but the water was hot. The toilet flush did not work properly (had to press it twice to flush). The front desk staff was not rude, but not welcoming either. Just to the point on giving a key and checking us out.

The Nassau Inn was absolutely wonderful! The location truly cannot be beat — right in the heart of Princeton, steps from everything. The hotel itself is historic, charming, and full of character while still being incredibly comfortable. Highly recommend!

Lovely hotel, in the center of Palmer Square, across the street from Princeton University. Room was a little dated but it was clean and very spacious. Loved the convenience of room service and having a full restaurant on the first floor! Would definitely stay here again when visiting this town.
