Overall comfortable and nice stay. Complementary drinks were much appreciated. Street parking was always available right in front. The 3rd sleeping option (futon) was pretty small.

We are glad you enjoyed a comfortable stay! Parking is generally easy to find, and we are happy to provide a complementary welcome basket for guests! It is true that the futon is small, certainly intended for a small person or child.

Just the best little place to stay!!! It was absolutely perfect. We did have any issues while staying there that required us to talk to the owners but the one question I asked before our stay was answered promptly. The location was fantastic. We were in town for University of Pittsburgh Family Weekend. The house was very clean and stocked with anything we could need. Beds were comfortable. We had no problem with parking. Honestly, I highly recommend this place and we will be staying again.

The place was clean and convenient. There were no sheets for the very small pullout bed in the office, but otherwise everything was great.

The location was absolutely perfect for our needs. Easy access to many bus lines so a car is not necessary to get to many attractions--including to and from the airport. We came for business pretty last minute and had no trouble working from the rental or commuting to the office from there. Video meetings were no trouble at all. The neighborhood is extremely walkable, with access to many great little restaurants and cafes, a grocery store, shops, etc. The rental was quiet and comfortable and a good place to crash after very busy days.

We are glad you enjoyed a quiet and comfortable stay at our property! The location is perfect for guests traveling without a vehicle with the public transportation nearby. The neighborhood also has so many dining and shopping options within walking distance, we are glad you were able to explore a few! Working from home is also made easy with the workspace and fast-speed internet. Thanks for staying with us!

The home was exactly as advertised and a perfect location for our weekend in Pittsburgh. We enjoyed a lovely walk to Schenley Park from here. The host was extremely responsive. One note, the steps to the second floor are quite steep, so could be difficult for someone with mobility issues. All in all, a comfortable location.

We loved it. Very pretty. Pretty neighborhood. We love old houses and old neighborhoods. Walkable neighborhood. Loved sitting on the front porch. Really enjoyed Pittsburgh. Too bad the Morgan Wallen concert got canceled but that’s not your fault.

We rented this beautiful listing at the last minute because our original reservation with a different company was unexpectedly cancelled and we needed a place to stay for graduation. This location is perfect as it is close to Oakland, but also to many wonderful surrounding neighborhoods. On street parking is plentiful and the street is quiet. The home itself is welcoming and has a mix of original charm with modern updates. We all slept great on new mattresses. We just had 3 in our party and I’d say you can comfortably sleep 4. There is a futon to sleep a 5th. Due to the weather, we weren’t able to enjoy the outdoor spaces but there is a lovely front porch and a backyard patio with seating. We very much enjoyed our stay and I would rent again if traveling to Pittsburgh!

Feel free to return in warmer weather to enjoy the outdoor spaces!
