Floor plan is here: Princeton University Facilities - Floor Plans
Some reviews are here: http://point.princeton.edu/rooms/index.php?tab=4
You're in the Gauss House, one of the biggest suites on campus. Four doubles, three singles, and a bathroom. Make the most of it.

wait one bathroom? I thought all the suites with more than 8 people had two bathrooms?

I had an 8 person suite in wilson my freshman year, and I thought it was a great experience. My suitemates have remained the core of my friend group throughout my years at princeton.

I guess Gauss 211 is now substance free? In any case, it was a football suite when I was there. Very inclusive, lots of parties, the guys who lived there are friends to this day.

Alumother, it's another 11-person suite, the Zoo in Dodge-Osborn, that is now sub-free.

And you're right, stlkarategal. I didn't see the bathroom on the second floor.
