<p>I agree with limner - “accommodations are definitely a personal choice.” I’ve stayed at Archer House twice because it’s very convenient and within walking distance of the campus and Northfield shops/restaurants. We chose to stay near the Twin Cities this last time because we were there over family weekend with five people - there was nothing available for our large party in or near Northfield. Having said that, I think my husband would probably choose to pass on Archer House. And we’re not from the Northeast either - North Carolina here. :)</p>
