About this property

Best Location & Neighborhood (2.5 to Downtown PGH)

Walking distance to various restaurant & bars, as well as to a pool hall, movie theater, and break out room. 3 minute drive or 10 minute transit trolley ride to the city for Heinz field, PNC park and museums! You’ll love my place because of convenience, the comfy beds, the high ceilings, the kitchen, the coziness. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, families (with kids), and furry friends (pets).
We do provide cable and wifi access. The apartment is located on the 2nd and third floor. There is a completely separate apartment on the first floor. The only common area is the front door and the laundry room.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.

The location can't be beat. Great neighborhood and things to do if you're staying local, and it's an easy 15-minute ride downtown if you're going to the city. Second- and third-floor apartment. Spacious and with everything you'll need. Russell is very responsive to questions and helpful with making your stay comfortable.

Absolutely phenomenal location and host! The house is perfect, in a fun, terrific neighborhood and the local community offers a ton of bars and restaurants within walking distance. It’s also very convenient to downtown and all the local attractions that a great city like Pittsburgh has to offer. We plan on visiting Pitt again this summer and would love to stay at this location every time we come to town. You can’t go wrong with this location and the great host!

This property was excellent. Lots of upgrades and a really nice space inside. There are two levels with the upper level being a private bedroom (loft type). Kitchen was stocked with what you need to cook and coffee pods and all of the needed dishes and cookware to cook our meals. The area is lovely and has coffee shops, breakfast and burgers/pizza. The only issue we had was the market nearby was international and not what we were looking for and there was an Aldi about a mile away. Highly recommended all around. Hosts communicated to any questions I had within minutes.
