“The Peacock Inn's location is truly its strongest suit, placing you steps from Nassau Street's charm and Princeton's academic pulse. I found the accommodation comfortable, though rooms are decidedly intimate for more than a solo traveler, and while parking is a welcome amenity, a fitness room would be a thoughtful addition.”
