The property has to be the worst maintained Hotel in the Sandman chain.
Everything on the outside is broken, or not working
I can tell no one from head office has seen this place for a long time.
The rooms are actually not bad, but the outside makes it look very scary.

I showed up at 3am due to delays in airlines. Office was closed and I had to call them. They had placed my key in a specified place and I was able to get right in

Stayed for one night in Sept en route to Vancouver.
Positives: the front desk staff was very friendly and accommodating.
I am a female travelling solo and the room had an adjoining door, which didn't make me feel super safe but the front desk confirmed the people on the other side couldn't open it.
The main door had clearly been kicked in multiple times, the handle had to be shoved with my whole body to latch and even then, could be pushed open. It was precarious. You could see outside in a little slit the length of the door.
The highway is right beside the hotel and the soundproofing is terrible. Heard loud trucks all night, even with my personal ear plugs. The soundproofing between rooms is also just so thin.
The bed had the largest imprint in the mattress. It clearly needs to be replaced.
Booked due to cost , ~130 cdn a night. But would absolutely spend more next time I'm passing through Princeton to stay anywhere else.

Hotel needs updating, but the room was very clean, staff are friendly and the area is quiet. Easy access to town and the highway. Price was reasonable.

Since a child I’ve come here when the restaurant was open now I come twice a year or more I feel safe it’s quiet and if you see people around most are really friendly

The property does not look like the promotion picture. The restaurant is closed. The reception was hurried as if the clerk was preoccupied with a visitor in the reception. Many ammenities were "out of order". This facility looks overused and may have been 2 years ago as an ESS facility for evacuees - who may not always respect the priviledge - of the river flood. A little pride in providing an accomodation for those traveling on a budget would be appreciated.

I was very happy about the reservation as they were full
The room was OK but the bathroom fan cover was missing and aloud me to see very much mold.

The advertising is outdated for the condition of the property. Our expectations were not met. From the photos in the ads we thought they had a cafe. This property does not represent the name brand. We made our reservations based on the name brand.

We came back to the Sandman because of the staff and friendliness of each person that has worked here…. Julie has been a great help…. She has gone above and beyond with helping to make our stay here wonderful…. We will come back because of her. Thank you Julie!
