Great spot and location!
We stayed here for a girls weekend and loved the space! Very spacious, lots of room for gathering, and some great views and outside space. The two parking spots were very helpful. The host was very responsive and was able to help us when needed. For location, it is an easy drive to a lot of great spots in Pittsburgh. Would recommend!

Comfortable and spacious
Very spacious, comfortable, and well equipped three story house in convenient location with parking right in front. Everything that anyone would need. There is a great brewery and a cute coffee shop a short walk away. Owner is very responsive. Would return if coming back to Pittsburg.
