The kitchen has natural butcher block counter tops, turquoise folk art and a view of the back yard off the back porch. You will find flatware, dishes and cooking utensils to accommodate most of your cooking and dining needs.There is a Keurig coffee machine.

Upstairs are two bedrooms and a sitting room with a futon bed. One queen sized bed, one full sized bed and the sitting room has lots of games to choose from.

We enjoyed Pittsburg
We ended up coming to town during the Marathon weekend. It was not ideal since we wanted to get to the strip but it was not feasible for getting out of town. We enjoyed the VRBO we chose, quiet neighborhood and easy to get around.

A great property!
We had a wonderful stay. The house was in pristine condition when we checked in, the beds were very comfortable, and the house was nicely decorated. There was plenty of space and everything we needed for supplies in the kitchen and plenty of clean towels, which were a nice touch! Parking was easy to find, and the house has a nice little yard area. Janet was very friendly and the check in and check out processes were a breeze! I tend to have high standards with where I stay, and this property definitely exceeded those. I would definitely book this house for a future stay in Pittsburgh. Thanks Janet!!

Weekend stay in Pittsburgh
Janet was very nice and great to respond with any issues. The property was clean enough although the area wasn't the greatest. Would not recommend for families with children.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Pictures are old and filtered. They do not properly represent the property. The house smelled moldy/musty upon arrival. We bombed it with most of a can of lysol. The house immediately failed expectations. However we were choosing to make the best of it. Even after the neighbor (it's a duplex, you share a wall and porch) stood in her doorway and stared at us. We smiled and waved/said hello. We were returned with a blank peering stare and no response. We trudeged on. None of this was going to ruin our vacation....right? It makes for a funny story to remember....right? UNTIL we saw roaches. NOPE, NOT OK. THEN we lost power! One of our guest had a medical device requiring power. We spent most of day 2 of a 3 day trip scrambling to find an acceptable place to stay. The host was non responsive. The neighborhood is sketchy. Then had to spend extra money due to new accommodations. Currently requesting a full refund. Save your money and your vacation...do not book here!

Super clean, very comfortable, and great location
The place was the perfect size for my group of friends. It was an easy location to have as our homebase as we explored. Pittsburgh and I especially enjoyed getting up early and climbing up to the Garfield community garden at the top of the hill. Everything was just as described, and it’s a place I would definitely recommend to others looking for a comfortable space to enjoy Pittsburgh from

Nice getaway
We were in town for the Taylor Swift concert and had a nice stay at Janet's place. The house was spacious and comfortable. The only con I would say is that the area was not very walkable.
