Hi! We are Grace & Chibi! Welcome to our newly renovated apartment! This amazing 1 Bedroom has all the conveniences desired: a comfy bed, dedicated workspace, and a place to relax after a long day! We are located on a quiet street in the coveted Highland Park neighborhood. Drive 5 mins to the Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium! We are also a 13 min drive to the universities and 18 mins to downtown!
We'd be happy to host you!
This apartment is on the third floor of our home, which is a 3 story triplex. Inside we have 1 Queen Bed and our kitchen is full of dishware, a coffee maker, utensils, and different cooking supplies. Smart TV with Roku, closet space, a kitchen and living area offers all the basic perks & amenities for a couple. With windows to bring in light, comfy furnishings & personal touches, this is a great place to lay your head after a day of city life!
Guests have access to the entire unit. All units on the property are separate. The only shared space on the property is the stairs/walkway within the building. The basement is an unfinished space. There is no unit, only laundry is located there.
Please treat our house with the same respect as you would your own home. We’ve put a lot of effort into making this into a lovely space to be enjoyed by our guests.
NO PARTIES, WEDDINGS, OR EVENTS!
By booking, the guest agrees to a security deposit hold on their method of payment by their booking platform. It will be released shortly after check-out if all rules are honored. It is the booking guest’s responsibility to make sure ALL registered guests in the group honor all House Rules, as the release of the hold is based on that.
