Perfect size and location

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.

Great location!

This small cottage is a short drive to Forest Park and walking distance to many Italian restaurants, delis, and bakeries. It is stocked well and clean. The only issue was that we could not get the Wi-Fi on our phones. The owner could not assist and took a long time to respond. Overall, a great location for all activities at Forest Park and great food.

It was a great cozy stay. The cottage is updated. The bed is a little soft and the area rug probably needs to be changed or a vinegar cleaning however , it was a great stay and the owner was very nice.
