Overall we had a great stay. Hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful. Responses were almost instant which was nice. The house looked just as pictured so there were no surprises. Every room was equipped with more than enough of everything. No more than 20 mins from everything we attended which was also nice. Perfect for couples since both up and downstairs have kitchens and are essentially two apartments. The only thing I would say is tall people be careful with the ceilings. There were two people that were 6’3 and they had to duck to not hit their heads in some portions of the house. Also have to pay close attention to different steps throughout. But again very minor things. I have zero complaints! The home was very well appointed and the house was clean and tastefully decorated. The space accommodated our family of 5 well. We were traveling with my 76 year old mother, and the property and home were not ideal for anyone with physical limitations- that was the one area that detracted from an otherwise comfortable stay. To enter the home, one must go up a flight of stairs from the street, then 3 more steps to enter (no railing on the second set of steps). Once inside, there are several single steps around the home that can be tricky to navigate, especially at night. The one other thing to be aware of is that the house is physically located very close to lots of things, but there is a huge 5-way intersection at Bigelow that does not have a walk light, so it can be very dangerous to cross, and the owners even recommend driving to avoid this danger. Hopefully, that crosswalk situation can be remedied at some point. It was wonderful comforting,clean, small but cute, we really enjoyed our stay. Thanks Chad’s group was very communicative and responded very quickly. <br/>The house was clean and looked just like the listing. Like others said, if you have mobility issues, this might not be the best spot for you. <br/>We had a great stay though and enjoyed our time in Pittsburgh!
