About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

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.

Great Spacious Place
This property was very well kept with plenty of space. If you rent the upstairs unit you get to park in the driveway. The location is great and the communication with the property owner is quick. There are plenty of restaurants within walking distance and it is close to downtown. I would definitely stay here again.

Off street parking nice to have; host responsive; apartment clean; beds comfortable; kitchen well stocked; take note that bedroom on third floor has to come to second floor to use bathroom; window a/c unit not installed in 3rd floor at the time of our stay but most nights were cool enough with window fan

Convenient location without downtown price
A really nice upstairs half of a duplex in a charming neighborhood very convenient to bus and light rail. Plenty of restaurant options and a great little downtown in walking distance. Nice amenities like wireless chargers in headboard and a great shower. Tasteful decor. Comfy bed. It was a little dusty on the headboards but that's the only issue. Clear check in instructions.

This homestay suited my family's needs during a long weekend visit. It is within a quiet neighborhood. Dining places within walking distance and grocery stores close by. We loved that the drive to the city was easy and quick.

Long weekend in Dormont
This would be a great rental for someone with a pet, but I wish it was a bit cleaner. Had a dog smell - but it’s clearly listed as pet friendly. Host had forgotten our reservation but so apologetic and communicative it was barely a hiccup. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a walkable neighborhood and you need a pet friendly spot!

Nice clean Two bedroom one bath
Cute find in an older neighborhood just outside of Downtown Pittsburgh. Clear communications with property manager. Off street parking was nice. Recommend a deep cleaning of fans. The shower and tiled floor need attention soon. Also if you sleep in King bed normally, the queen beds are just don’t work. Overall great place. Hope to stay in that area again. We want to check out the local nightlife and restaurants. Thanks!
