Easy, comfortable stay
We were in town for an Artist Book Fair at the Carnegie Museum and this was a perfect crash pad after long days of driving and selling art! The museum area is super accessible and the drive so lovely through Schenley Park. Thank you for everything!

Great weekend!
Townhouse was perfect for our trip. It was clean, everything we needed was provided, checkin process was easy. This is a standard Pittsburgh home meaning steep stairs as owner stated. Everything was as described.

Just what I needed
The townhouse was very clean and exactly as the pictures showed. It's a typical Pittsburgh home. Very quiet neighborhood. I felt completely comfortable and safe there. The stairs were steep and short, but that is also typical. Being over 65, my friend and I just had to take them slowly. But it wasn't a problem. The hosts were excellent to work with and answered all questions promptly. I plan on staying there again in the future when visiting my son and DIL.
