A fabulous place to stay due to the attentiveness of the staff.

Pros: The building had some beautiful features and was very comfortable. The experience was made extra special by the personal touches from Lydia the inn keeper.

It was virtual perfection!

Pros: This was one of seven stops on our Ivy League tour, and it was certainly our favorite! The accommodations were historic, charming, and comfortable. The breakfast was first-rate, including that delicious homemade chocolate truffle at the end.

Cons: Traffic going by was a bit noisy, but nothing earplugs and the provided sound machine couldn’t remedy.

If you are visiting Princeton, this is a must-visit stayover

Pros: I liked the very nice room - big, historic and very pleasant. Beautiful old bathroom. Very nice details (soap is very nice, scented and very good moisturizer (kids used a whole tube). Easy to find. Personal touches, and hand written notes to make us find the room easily (we got to the inn late, as a flash flooding was at risk). Oh - the breakfast! Best yet this vacation. Very good! I had the healthy option, and the family the other. Both excellent!

Cons: Nothing. I liked everything.

Cons: Too close to the road 206. Wish it was further away, more into the woods or country-side
