Excellent home near Pitt and CMU campus'

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.

The Mr. Rogers Tour became much more

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!

Quiet and comfortable

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.

Convenient, clean place to stay

This property worked out very well for us. We were visiting children/grandchildren at Pitt and Chatham; attending Pitt basketball (within walking distance) and Pitt football (la short drive) and shopping at the Pitt store (an easy walk) It is also close to the Strip district for restaurants and shopping. It was well stocked with every thing (dishes, pots and pans, coffee and tea maker); it only lacked a cutting board. Having an offstreet parking space was also an asset.

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.
