Transparently, there were some hiccups in communication between the property manager and I in the week leading up to our trip that were not clearly stated in the home's description prior to us booking our stay, however, I felt that they were able to address my concerns and came up with solutions that felt satisfactory to my group and I. The property manager was overall understanding and receptive to my feedback through our conversations. For our group of 10 who cooked for the majority of our trip, we felt that there could have been more essentials like toilet paper, cleaning supplies drinkware/silverware given our group size but if you are coming with a smaller group it should be fine. The location itself was wonderful and we thoroughly enjoyed the quaintness of the neighborhood for our weekend getaway. ##### Isabella M. Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Alex M. 13 May 2025 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Not as listed upon arrival to the house, they did not give us clear information as to which floor we were staying on. They gave us the information for both the first floor and the second floor without telling us which floor was ours. Then after checking in, we asked for the Wi-Fi password and had some other questions to which they did not respond or answer ever. At the end of our stay, they contacted Verbo directly and tried to charge me an additional 730\. Safe to say I will never be booking with them again. ##### Alex M. Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Melissa B. 17 Jun 2025 ##### Melissa B.
