We loved this property and would stay here again when we return to Pittsburgh! The host is very responsive and the home is clean, comfortable, and walkable to downtown.
Our stay was perfect! The owner was very kind and responsive when I had questions. The place itself was very clean and we felt very welcome! Would stay here again!
We really enjoyed our stay! The property was very clean, looked exactly like the listing, and was a great place to stay. Overall, we had a wonderful experience.My only complaint was the booking process. There were far too many emails and messages, many of which were duplicates, and it felt like we had to answer too many questions just to complete the reservation. It made the process more complicated than it needed to be.We also weren't sure how to register our vehicle for parking, but the host responded quickly and took care of it right away. Including those instructions in the check-in information would make the arrival process much smoother.Other than those minor issues, everything was great, and we would definitely consider staying here again.

Response from VrboOwner on 30 July 2026
Thank you, Jennifer, for staying with us and for taking the time to share your thoughtful feedback. We're so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and that you found the property clean, comfortable, and true to the listing.
We also appreciate your comments about the booking process. Because reservations made through VRBO don't always provide us with all of the information we need, we do ask a few additional questions to ensure we have the correct details for all guests and can provide a smooth check-in experience. That said, we understand your point about the number of messages and will continue looking for ways to make the process as seamless as possible.
Thank you as well for your suggestion regarding parking registration. The property includes one parking permit, and the vehicle must be registered to avoid towing. We'll review our arrival information to see how we can make those instructions even clearer for future guests.
We truly appreciate your feedback and would love the opportunity to host you again.
Great host, responded to questions promptly. The property is setup well, and I cannot think of anything that was missed or out of place. Highly recommended, I will look to stay here again.
