Perfect location for us in “downtown” Wallingford. House has everything we needed. Owner is very responsive and nice.

Host was responsive. House was so unique and cool.

Everything was pretty good. The beautiful Old fashioned Pine Board Floors upstairs brought back Memories of a home which Fred grew up in East Wallingford. Hand Hewn Planks and Square headed nails date it back into the 1800's. Really Cool. The House was as expected with only a couple surprises. The entry door took two of us to get it open. It was really severely Stuck and after opening we found a section of the Doorjamb near the Top Left as Facing inward has a spot on it that appeared to have a previous Repair which had Failed to solve the Jamming Problem. Also, when leaving, we tried our best to complete the Owners instructions to run the Dishwasher. We tried our best but between 4 of us with a combined total of over 100 years' experience using Dishwashers, we Failed and could NOT get the Dishwasher to run. The only other issue was the Heat Thermostat. Fred is a retired Engineer who once owned an HVAC company. When he tried to set the T-stat, it got stuck in a Fan Only Mode and there is No reset or Off Button. It set itself on RUN for 45 minutes and there was NO override or escape method to turn OFF the Fan. A more satisfactory solution would be a Cheap 25$ traditional thermostat with an On, Off, and Auto setting with a simple Dummy-Proof Temperature Setting Dial. The Current Thermostat is a Cool Gadget, but just NOT User-friendly and/or practical for the average person. Oh, on the door issue, we would suggest a Repair ASAP. A Renter could easily Harm themself.

We had an easy check in and the house was very well appointed with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We were a large group and the beds were comfortable. The best thing was the air conditioning in all the rooms as it was quite warm outside. Would definitely rent this home again.
