University House is at the upper end of retirement homes, they only offer 27 meals a month, and the rest of it is on your own. There is a small garden. The staff was peasant and upscale. They have various lectures going on and musical things. The food was standard.

The staff at University House are very pleasant and helpful. The atmosphere of University House is quite hushed, like a library, and like everyone is making an effort to be calm and not disturb anyone else. This is good, if you like libraries, but can be a little unnerving, if you like life a bit more lively. The decor is elegant and tasteful, again, rather quiet and expensive-looking. There seems to be a lot of amenities such as a nice dining hall, a grand piano for concerts, which they offer a monthly, and shuttle bus service to activities in the city which it would be difficult for residents to get to otherwise. The facility is located in Wallingford, in the heart of a city neighborhood, so getting to activities is fairly easy, and it is possible for residents to feel a part of a larger community. There are more than the usual amount of visitors from the community, in the form of students and volunteers.
