Great stay near all the action in Pittsburgh!

Great property just a block away from restaurants and bars and a short ride away from the stadiums. Plenty of room for seven adults. Very clean with large, comfortable bedrooms and a fun outdoor patio. Phil and Dolly were gracious, responsive hosts. Highly recommend and would absolutely stay here again!

Perfect Housing for our Team

Myself and several of my friends and teammates were in town for a Blues/Swing Dance workshop weekend and we really needed a space with lots of available beds in the heart of Pittsburgh. The location was perfect to get too and from our dance classes and the nearby grocery and restaurants kept all of us happy and fueled through the busy weekend! The owners are super helpful and communicative and the lovely soft beds were just what we needed to rest and recover between long stretches of activity! Thank you for providing such a lovely space!

We had a very nice stay with our extended family all together in one place. Having 5 bedrooms, in the middle of Pittsburgh, was wonderful for all 10 of us. There was plenty of space in the common areas - including the dining area, living room and kitchen. The bedrooms were all good sizes. As a note, it is a 3-story home, with the bedrooms on the 2nd and 3rd floors, and both bathrooms on the 2nd floor. The area of Pittsburgh it is in was great - plenty of food, coffee, bars, grocery and bagels were all within an easy walk. As a bonus, there was a wonderful public pool Also, about a 10-20 minute drive to pretty much any major attraction in Pittsburgh. There was ample street parking during the week. The hosts were very quick to respond to any questions or issues. Overall, we had a wonderful time!

Pittsburgh Stay

We really enjoyed staying at this property. It was convenient to where we planned to be in Pittsburgh and had no trouble finding street parking. The outside patio was wonderful for an evening to sit around with our group of friends to catch up. Our suggestion would be to add mirrors to the bedrooms so it’s easier to leave the bathrooms for those needing to shower while others can still get ready with mirrors in the bedrooms. We had 10 girls doing hair and makeup and only two bathroom mirrors. Also would have been helpful to have small trash cans in each bedroom too. Overall, we had a great stay and would recommend this property!
