Property was clean & well stocked. Comfortable for the six adults in our group. Walk to museums, restaurants. Felt very safe here walking day or night. It was a perfect location for the wedding(Heinz Chapel) and the reception at the Carnegie Museum of art that we attended. Thank you!!
My family had an enjoyable stay
In this great location near Pitt, Carnegie Mellon and Carnegie Museum. Parking spot was on the property and beds were comfortable.
We had an excellent stay at this house. The location was perfect for us to celebrate Pitt’s graduation, just a short walk to campus. We found the house very clean. Stacey is a very attentive host.
Well kept property with parking behind the home. Comfortable beds and roomy spaces. Everything worked well. You can tell this is a well managed place. Will definitely stay here again.
My family raved about their stay. It was so convenient - they were able to walk to Phipps Conservatory and Schenley Plaza and take in Oakland (from a safe distance!!). Great location and very nice apartment. They loved the lay out and the amenities.
Our son is attending college in Pittsburgh. Having this wonderful warm and convenient home for us to stay in while we are here is a blessing. The property is clean and well stocked. We so appreciate the owner and manager for all they do to make this a home away from home.
We stayed here for our son's move in to Pitt. It is the perfect place to stay for families, business, or just a get away. Walking distance to Pitt, CMU, Shadyside, and Oakland. The condo is super clean and all new appliances, furniture, and appointments. Stacey the owner is a delightful and helpful host. I highly recommend this listing and we will be staying here again. It is simply excellent on all accounts.
Stacey was a great host in that we had arrived early on our trip and she was able to accommodate our needs. Upon arrival we found the home was older but very clean, with personal touches of towels with a mint on the bed, cold waters in the refrigerator and some snack bars on the table. It was perfect walking distance most of our needs and the off street parking a bonus. Parking in the neighborhood on the street is restricted and rare to find a spot. We will definitely use this home again when we are in town.
This property is well-situated between two universities, and two blocks away from the Carnegie Museum of Art. Lots of space for me, my wife and kids. Both kids has their own bedrooms. Lots of amenities: new washer and dryer in the basement, extra coffee and filters, all new appliances in the kitchen, a very comfortable living room to watch TV, secure locks on doors, and off-street parking in the back. Very little noise at night, so we all slept well.
We came to Pittsburgh to walk the street that Fred Rogers had walked. We went to see the exhibit of the television set at the Heinz Center. We visited nearby Latrobe where Fred Rogers was born and where he is buried. What we found was a city neighborhood full of colleges, museums, and gardens. We loved the location of this house. We were able to walk to the Museum of Natural History and Art and to Schenley Gardens. We loved the train passing under the hill where we were located. I guess we love cities!

Left early
We checked in for a 2-night stay. The property appeared clean and comfortable.
Unfortunately, when I got up in the morning and sat in the living room, a large brown insect scurried down from behind the wall-mounted TV and onto the floor. I have been around long enough to know a cockroach when I see one. I was not fast enough to get my phone and photograph it. My wife was still asleep, so I sat there considering what to do next. I picked up my knapsack off the floor, and luckily it was zipped up.
About an hour later my wife got up and told me there was a big bug in the bedroom. I looked at it, took a photo, and it was a large centipede sitting above the bedroom door. Other than turning around, it did not move for over an hour. Definitely not the same behavior as bug #1.
When I told her about my experience, we decided to clear out, so we packed up and left. It was a Sunday morning.
I sent a text and email to Stacey the owner. While she was apologetic, she was unimpressed with the bugs, and would not consider refunding us for the second night.
Instead, she stated that they had no problems with cockroaches, that centipedes are everywhere in Pittsburgh, and since I didn't have a picture of bug #1 it was probably a centipede too. I pointed out that there was a bug trap next to the fridge, suggesting that indeed there had been insect issues there in the past, but again that was minimized as normal.
Our daughter has lived in the Pittsburgh area for 7 years, and has not heard that centipedes are everywhere.
What Stacey did do (apparently) was get the place inspected for bugs. Within a day she reported to us that it had been inspected, that there were no bugs, or evidence of bug droppings, and would not refund me for the un-used night, saying she would go out of business if every time someone saw a bug she would have to refund them.
It's odd that after seeing two bugs, and photographing one, her response was that they could have walked through the door while we were checking in.
As a VRBO owner myself, I can say that if someone in my home left because of concerns about roaches, I would believe them, and refund them. Also, it was not a 10-day stay we were bailing out on, just one night of a 2-night reservation.
In contacting Stacey by phone, I was trying to help her avoid this online discussion, but all she requested was that I be honest and fair in my review. So here it is, Stacey. You can keep our money. Use it to fumigate and spray.
