Nice place. good hosts, and the best value in the area.

Breakfast was well prepared and tasty. The hosts were accommodating to our timely needs. We were upgraded to a nicer room do to a last minute schedule conflict with the owners. There was no extra charge and the room was pleasant.

The only issue (albeit a small one) was that the tv in the room had a preset max volume. This is understandable as not wanting to disturb others, but we felt the volume was set to low making it a tad difficult to hear.

In summary, the proerty is a special place and very accommodating to its visitors.

Very interesting historicial property and lovely yard. The location was perfect for our destination: O'Brien's nursery. The food (breakfast) was delicious and prepared on site. The owner's were very accommodating and available.

My husband is blind and had some difficulty navigation smaller bedroom size. But most areas were not a problem.

Great homebase for driving around the area visiting different attractions.

Very friendly and accommodating hosts that take pride in their property, the neighborhood and the service they provide. Amazing breakfast. The entire place is very clean and organized, and you're just a few miles away from historic attractions and larger cities.

The mattress on our bed is starting to give in a little at the middle, so we were kind of pulled towards the center of the bed and ended up bumping into each other during the night. Nonetheless, this is just a minor complaint. Would stay here again anyway. :)

Peaceful stay

The location was close to fine dining, Mr. Wayne and his wife Kim were excellent hosts, the house is beautiful and the bed was comfy. The pillows were perfect!

It is close to the road, however once you are in your room the noise diminishes so it's not bad at all.

Very good for the price.

Clean, nice bed, linens and towels. Good breakfast and hosts.

The room was close to the street so was a bit noisy. They had a fan which helped with noise.

My stay was enjoyable in every way and I can't wait to return.

The Truman Gillett House is nicely decorated and all of the furniture is comfortable and in perfect condition. The common areas, bedrooms and bathrooms are spotlessly clean. The breakfast is very good, with the hosts checking on your preferences in advance. I had a last minute special food request, and hosts were very accommodating. The location is great and the House is easy to see from the street. The hosts provide enjoyable company and you feel like family while you are there!

There is nothing I would change. I wish I was able to stay longer than two nights.

The warm hospitality of Wayne and Kim was amazing, and their dog performed tricks for us on the second mornkng of our stay. Particularly enjoyed the different breakfast prepared each morning. The place was easy to find using GPS.

Lodging served my purpose for my initial night but I probably would not go back to the same.

Cute, old house, comfortable bed.

Didn’t feel really welcome based on initial greeting at the door. Breakfast was somewhat disappointing.

Highly recommended for those looking for a charming, welcoming and homely place to stay.

Breakfast was stellar. Hosts were very welcoming and helpful, but also did not encroach - so got it just right. Bed was very comfortable and room very peaceful and quiet. House is charming and very quaint. And you have the use of a sitting room that gives plenty of space to sit and read.

For us the house and location were perfect. For those who don't know the area, a car is essential as centre of town and the many local amenities are not in walking distance. House is on a main road, so there is some road noise. But the Connecticut bedroom is at the back of the house and so very peaceful.

Old farm house. Charming property. Owners were especially welcoming and accommodating.

Since it is an old farm house, the bedroom was small for two people.

The indoor mask enforcement guidelines were not adhered to and one out of two of the owners were not vaccinated, which did not make me or my partner feel safe.

Kim and Wayne were outstanding hosts and it's a very charming house. I've gotten used to AirBnbs, and there's something that felt necessary about sharing breakfast with people I don't know. Met a great couple that was biking across the state and that started my day off the right way. The area is fantastic, too.
