This is a gorgeous spot tucked into a great north side neigborhood in/near the Mexican War Streets. An easy walk to Acrisure, the Aviary, and quite a few great restaurants. The host couldn't have been more helpful or quick to respond, and the place was exactly as advertised. Lots of nice places to sit and read throughout lovely property. Parking behind accessed through an alleyway is tight, but doable. And extremely convenient. Would totally stay here again.

Fun stay

The house had great hang out spots when the family wanted to be all together, and when we each wanted our own space. The library is not too removed from the rest of the house so not as private as we expected for a sleeping option but other parts of the house are great. We loved the large living room and the location. Walked to a lot of attractions and enjoyed our stay! Owners were very communicative and helpful.

Great stay in Pittsburgh

The property was spacious and comfortable and Caroline was a fantastic host! Our travel plans changed relatively last-minute and she was able to accommodate an extra day for us swiftly and easily. Very good communication, quick to answer questions and just really responsive. The location of Caroline's place made it so easy for us to get around, with quick travel to some of our "must see" sights. If I'm in Pittsburgh again, I'll be staying here!

Can't beat location

The house itself was clean and spacious. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen is small, but functional. The host were lovely and responsive. The real claim to fame of the property is the quick and easy walk to the stadium. It made our event way more enjoyable being able to walk back to the house between the preshow events and main event to take a break and eat dinner without paying stadium prices.

About the host

Hosted by Caroline Sefscik

Host profile image
Hosting is my passion, and nothing makes me happier than creating a space where guests feel truly at home while exploring our beautiful city. Your comfort and experience mean the world to me, and I can’t wait to welcome you!

When I am not hosting I enjoy practicing yoga, reading, having thought provoking conversation with friends over a lovely glass of wine, and of course spending time with my husband and sweet son.

My husband and I are proud parents of a 13.5-year-old hockey player (we adore) and most weekends, you’ll find us in the stands cheering him on. Wishing you wonderful adventures, happy travels, and a memorable stay—CHEERS!
