Love the homey feel 10/10
Best stay ever !!! Felt like I was family , she cooked us breakfast in the morning and also offered lunch and dinner , and also addressed that every Wednesday was laundry day and it was included with our stay, and told us if we pay for two days that we have the option to stay the third day free of charge

Shower did not really have any pressure and fixtures were very dated
There Do not signs everywhere
It is a house that serves breakfast for an hour, not a bed and breakfast

Great place
We really liked the house, the host and atmosphere.
I would say would be nice to add some milk and coffee in the kitchen, so guests can use it.

Not what I was expecting.
Inside seemed sort of nice but outside was unkempt. A room with private bath in someone's house, not what I would consider a ranch or bed and breakfast.
I don't like last minute changes. Please post rules of house in the listing: Required photos of drivers licenses of all parties. Parking on the street. No shoes in the house.
I guess for the price I should have known better. Didn't like the vibe. We decided to just leave immediately, find a better place, and lose our "non-refundable" payment.

Amazing bed and breakfast in a quiet suburb
This is a wonderful, affordable place to stay tucked away in a quiet suburb. Renee was absolutely incredible and made sure that we were taken care of. She was gracious and hospitable in an unparalleled fashion. The rooms themselves are well kept and quiet. I am used to having to pay far more for the incredible value I got from this place. Can't recommend them enough! Whenever I come back to Connecticut, THIS is the ONLY place I'll ever consider staying.

We called weeks ahead to cancel but they would not waive charge according to Expedia. So we did not stay at Jays Ranch but forgot to cancel also.
Staff was very nice to call us next day to see why we didn’t show up and they knew about the refusal of credit denial. Staff felt bad because there had been a mix up on us being denied refund. So they wanted to give us a free stay or give us our money back.
Because we chose not to stay I told them no need for refund because we forgot to cancel so was our fault. They were very kind to do all of this.

The property is beautiful! Nice and clean. The staff was welcoming, friendly, and professional. And you can’t beat the price. I’m definitely coming back here next time I come to Hamden.
