Great location

We were in Pittsburgh to attend baseball games at PNC Park. House was conveniently located a mile from the Park within easy walking distance. Other activities we did were all within a short drive. Property manager Andrew was excellent to work with. Answered all questions promptly. Fortunately we did not experience any problems during our stay that we needed his assistance.

A colorful house for a colorful neighborhood

We absolutely loved our stay. It was a great home base as we explored the city. The neighborhood is quiet and artsy. Parking was super easy. The house had enough bedrooms that we could each have our own space, but also really spacious and comfy shared spaces to hang out. Lots of attention paid to all the little details in the house made our stay special.
