About this property

Best Location & Neighborhood (2.5 to Downtown PGH)

  • Walking distance to various restaurant & bars, as well as to a pool hall, movie theater, and break out room. 3 minute drive or 10 minute transit trolley ride to the city for Heinz field, PNC park and museums! You’ll love my place because of convenience, the comfy beds, the high ceilings, the kitchen, the coziness. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, families (with kids), and furry friends (pets).
    We do provide cable and wifi access. The apartment is located on the 2nd and third floor. There is a completely separate apartment on the first floor. The only common area is the front door and the laundry room.

The location can't be beat. Great neighborhood and things to do if you're staying local, and it's an easy 15-minute ride downtown if you're going to the city. Second- and third-floor apartment. Spacious and with everything you'll need. Russell is very responsive to questions and helpful with making your stay comfortable.

Absolutely phenomenal location and host! The house is perfect, in a fun, terrific neighborhood and the local community offers a ton of bars and restaurants within walking distance. It’s also very convenient to downtown and all the local attractions that a great city like Pittsburgh has to offer. We plan on visiting Pitt again this summer and would love to stay at this location every time we come to town. You can’t go wrong with this location and the great host!

Great Spacious Place

This property was very well kept with plenty of space. If you rent the upstairs unit you get to park in the driveway. The location is great and the communication with the property owner is quick. There are plenty of restaurants within walking distance and it is close to downtown. I would definitely stay here again.

Visit family in Pittsburgh

Off street parking nice to have; host responsive; apartment clean; beds comfortable; kitchen well stocked; take note that bedroom on third floor has to come to second floor to use bathroom; window a/c unit not installed in 3rd floor at the time of our stay but most nights were cool enough with window fan

Convenient location without downtown price

A really nice upstairs half of a duplex in a charming neighborhood very convenient to bus and light rail. Plenty of restaurant options and a great little downtown in walking distance. Nice amenities like wireless chargers in headboard and a great shower. Tasteful decor. Comfy bed. It was a little dusty on the headboards but that's the only issue. Clear check in instructions.

Comfortable and clean

We had an amazing night in this property. It was cozy and quiet. I felt safe and comfortable. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The only things i can say that could have been better was coffee and creamer wouldve been a nice touch, and the toilet malfunctioned right from the start, so that was a bit inconvenient. But other than that we would definitely stay here again!
