    Host met us when we arrived. He was very nice. Took the time to show us everything and answer our questions. First VRBO. It was a pleasant experience. Our host John stocked our kitchen with drinks, fresh fruit and coffee pods. Plenty of corner dining spots near by. We would stay again!! Thanks John and Mary for a good stay!

    We stayed here for 2 nights to go to the ballgame and it is such a cute space! I didn’t realize it was a B&B type stay in someone’s back yard but it wasn’t bad. The yard is super cute with plants and trees. The inside was clean and stocked with the essentials in the cabinets. We had fresh towels and wash cloths, shampoo, conditioner and men’s and women’s body wash. The only thing we had to buy was stuff for the fridge if you plan to do any cooking or eating in. I read the reviews and someone mentioned the water being either super hot or freezing cold. We turned the shower faucet all the way on to hot and let it run for a minute and adjusted it to where we wanted it. It worked fine. From my understanding it’s a tankless water heater and those can be tricky for people who have never used one. We had 2 issues but neither was the hosts fault! We came on the same weekend as graduation. So parking was horrible! The house is located near several restaurants and it was hard to find a spot to park due to all of the people eating out. Also, it seems that a nearby neighbor has some flashing lights and it flashes through the window above the futon throughout the night. It’s not super bright but if you like a pitch dark room, that may be a problem for some people. It seemed like everything we typed into our gos was 12 minutes away, so that was nice! All in all we enjoyed our stay.

    We were in town one night for my Granddaughters Graduation from Washington University.We didn’t really use the kitchen other than to have coffee but it appeared they had everything we would have needed to cook. It was the perfect size for my husband & I. The hosts were gracious & welcoming, her son even helped carry our bags in. They had cold beverages in the fridge, & a lovely fruit bowl for us to snack on. There were also individual packets of oatmeal, a pop tart & a packet of cheese & crackers. So thoughtful for guests on the run! Several Italian restaurants & deli’s within walking distance however We didn’t get to sample any of the Italian restaurants while we were on the Hill, but we heard Mamas on the Hill is some of the best in St Louis. That gives us the perfect excuse to visit “ The Little Cottage on the Hill” again.

Be aware that there are a couple of very popular local restaurants nearby and parking can be challenging at peak times. Not a negative just something to be aware of because having those local restaurants nearby is definitely a plus! You should definitely check them out.

I had plenty of privacy. The neighborhood was quiet and very easy to navigate. Parking was my only complaint, but that had nothing to do with the hosts.

    I rented this cottage as it was so close to St Ambrose Catholic Church for my daughter’s wedding. I dropped off the wedding flowers there, and asked the owners to set the thermostat perfectly for them to stay fresh for the following days event. They honored my wishes and were extremely kind. The newlyweds stayed there the night of their wedding and it was the perfect size and location of the venue LaVerona.

Location is great Parking is a 5/10 we were gone most of the time so it wasn't a issue for us but could be for someone whos in and out a lot. The expired and opened condiments in the fridge was a surprise. As well as jelly jars filled with OJ and Milk. I know this was done as a courtesy but pretty sure its also illegal to have opened containers
