Verbal agreement when renting housing is a risk. For the owner, it is a threat to get damaged furniture or a smoke-filled room without compensation. For the tenant, it is a risk of losing the security deposit. The Ukraine Apartments portal recommends always signing a written contract, even if you are renting housing for one day.
Below is a typical text of the agreement. You can copy it, paste it into a text editor, and print it.
