We had a fantastic time in general at Marengo, and loved the house. We were a tad disappointed about the communication over bedding and towels and think this could be easily avoided in the future by removing "bedding and towels" from the Amenities section of the listing, so that people know to bring their own.
We were also a little frustrated by the fact that the check-out time on AirBnB wasn't updated in a timely fashion, as this caused most of our guests to be stressed and we ended up cleaning the house and being ready to check out by 10am anyway, despite having paid an extra charge.
In summary - bring your own bedding, towels (and hand towels) and toilet paper; absolutely beautiful, well-maintained house in a lovely spot.
