We enjoyed our stay here. The place was clean, comfortable and exactly as described. It's in a great location - close to downtown but still quiet and easy to get around. One of our favorite perks was the off-street parking.
The inside definately does not match the outside! Im told this is normal for Pittsburgh, lol! We LOVED our stay being so close to downtown. The pictures are absolutely accurate. Immaculate inside with ALL of the conveniences you would every need- fully stocked kitchen, dishwasher, front porch and back patio, with ample seating. Toiletries and towels. Extra comforters/linen, etc. - beds were very comfortable. While the vrbo management team through evolve was easy to book and work with, it was being able to communicate with the owner which made all the difference. If I find myself in Pittsburgh again I will definately book here. Btw, my 87 year old mother, who is very particular, says 2 thumbs up!
Overall okay, everything but communication was poor, great at first with the check in, but after asking why the WiFi was not working , radio silence. Someone(maybe a previous guest) smeared the last 3 digits of the password away. No word the next day or following the whole stay. Vrbo emailing me to review, is the last communication I got for this visit.

We are pleased to hear that you had a smooth check-in process and enjoyed the home. We apologize for the frustration regarding the WiFi, as we never want a technical issue to impact a stay. We take pride in being highly responsive and reached out multiple times during your visit; however, we did not receive any notification regarding internet troubles. Had we been made aware, we would have been more than happy to assist you immediately. We have since corrected the smeared password on the router to ensure the login credentials are clear for all future guests.
Property was well-appointed and communication with the host was easy. Location afforded quick Uber rides to downtown convention area and was very convenient.
This is a great house for spending a long weekend in Pittsburgh! The house was clean and had everything we needed. The neighbors is safe and quiet. We met some of the neighbors and everyone was nice and were happy to give us recommendations. We would definitely stay here! Thank you for thinking all of the little things we may have forgot to pack.
This was a perfect place to stay for our weekend trip! My cousin and I celebrated our birthdays by thrifting around Pittsburgh and seeing sights. It was a happy surprise that we were so close to Grandview Park and the incline. While we drinking coffee on the porch, we even had some deer pass by!

This host was very sweet on initial contact... Family in town for graduation, but our home couldn't compensate room for our guests so we booked here. All hard and soft surfaces upon entry and exit were sanitized with supplies personally purchased and left for later use. Place cleaned up well, but some items weren't placed exactly where they were originally- i apologize! I later received texts/accusations about neighbors "smelling weed", AND a "missing pillow, blanket, and towel". To follow- photos of a jacket and cosmetic jewelry my neice left with the blanket in a pile. Followed by 2 outdoor clips of the "missing blanket" being used ON property . I explained that all used linen was combined and placed in a bag on the 2nd floor. I was asked to send money via zelle or pay pal for replacement with a link for an item that was not even comparable to anything of question when clearly the proof was sent via the host! To top it off... we discarded 4 TIED personalized trash bags and placed them in a secure trash bin provided by the host at the edge of the property and on said property cameras. Being very mindful to place the one containing food scent on the very bottom. Sent photos of one clearly UNTIED bag said to have been "destroyed by pests" that displayed a juice soiled towel and cleaning cloth on top that had been moved to the concrete section of the property of which has to be at least 50 ft from said provided receptacle. Overall, there was a great time amongst each other.

The house was very nice and had everything you'd possibly need during your stay. I really liked the location.
We enjoyed our stay at this property. Very close to the city and a walk to the Pittsburgh Incline and a beautiful view of the city from Mt. Washington.

Wonderful tenants! Thank you so much for booking with me, and I’m glad you enjoyed your stay!
We stayed two nights for a concert and the place was perfect. Great spaces for sleeping and had many different items in the house that were essentials for staying the night! We had a large vehicle and parking was a little narrow but other than that it was a great place to stay.

About the host
Your host
I’m born and raised in the area, and have been renting my properties for over 16 years now. This was my first home I purchased when I was young, so I’ve always kept special care of it, as it holds a special place in my heart! I love providing a very clean and cozy home, especially in the most unique part of the city! I think you will love this home just as much as I do!
Why they chose this property
Mt. Washington makes our city stand out amongst others. It sit above the city, with a one minute walk behind the house to the breathtaking city views in Grandview Park! This is the best place to stay when visiting, as you are very close to everything downtown, nestled inside a great community! The neighbors are wonderful, and always welcoming to my guests if they happen to see them! Close to the bus line and T and always available Uber close-by!
What makes this property unique
This very convenient and cozy location close to everything in the city!
