Ratings and reviews
5.0 / 5.0
House is great!
We went to the science center, two Pirate's games (won both! ), and a Steelers game.
We walked, drove, and used an uber..
There was 9 of us which worked for us, but couldn't have had another..
Henry was extremely quick to reply to everything!
5.0 / 5.0
Had a wonderful long weekend stay for a pirates game with family. The house was perfect and in a great location to get around the city. Host was amazing in communication with us.
5.0 / 5.0
The house is beautiful inside and out with plenty of room. Communication with the management was frequent and very easy. 6 out of 5 stars.
5.0 / 5.0
Perfect location for the stadium and casino. Very good communication between the owner. Easy check in and check out. House is nice and roomy.
4.0 / 5.0
The house is charming. Acomodates many people well. The large kitchen and dining room made for easy cooking and dining.
Stairs are plentiful so probably would not suggest for really young or old people.
3.0 / 5.0
We experienced much of what was in the reviews to date, some good and some not. Henry is super polite and responsive, and he really came through when the airline changed our flight and we needed to come in a day early. Any time I contacted him his communication exceeded expectations in comparison to other hosts. The house is charming, unique, and spacious. It was the perfect size for us, our parents, and adult kiddo. The neighborhood was just okay and takes a downturn a few blocks away in some directions - several rideshare drivers recommended not walking around at night, though we had no issues in that regard. Like another reviewer, we found parts of the kitchen and the floors in the main level of the house dirty, which was disappointing but we did not take time out of our fun to contact Henry about this during the stay. I did after our stay and he quickly responded with an apology and agreed that this was not their standard. The location is an easy ride to the Strip District and other attractions in the area. The walk to Heinz Field is pretty easy, and not much farther to PNC Park or the fun areas in between. It’s about a 25 minute ride to the airport. There is now a Keurig (a 2021 review suggested this) in addition to a regular coffee pot. We found Instacart easiest for grocery delivery. Overall, it met our needs for a long weekend centered around the Steelers and we had plenty of space to spread out.
4.0 / 5.0
This house is as described. The block was quiet and very easy to find. Plenty of parking. House accommodated our group of 7 perfectly. Plenty of room. We did have trouble trying to enter the home, but the host was very responsive and had someone manually come open the door and change the battery so we could lock and unlock door with code.
5.0 / 5.0
Close to stadiums and great place for two families!

Family Christmas
Achieved exactly what we wanted to by providing us with a comfortable place for our Christmas gathering. Henry did a great job by providing a tree for our get together and responded quickly to our dryer problem.
5.0 / 5.0
Really nice house
House was perfect for 6 guys going to the steelers game. Walk was about 20 minutes to stadium. House was very clean, with the amenities you would need for the whole stay. Only downside were the bunkbeds, everytime someone moved they made noise that the whole house could hear. The master bedroom was amazing. Great stay.
4.0 / 5.0
In for Rolling Stones concert
The house was nice, beds were comfortable. The street we stayed on seemed a little run down but home was very nice.
4.0 / 5.0

All in all a good experience
Needs a keurig coffe maker and coffee left there to make in the morning

DO NOT STAY HERE
DO NOT STAY HERE- When we first entered the house checking in was easy. As we continued our stay we started to notice random things that were left unclean such as the knives in the kitchen having rust/food spots left on them; the pots and pans having dirt and food left on them as well, while also being rusty and extremely old. As we continued to venture around we went to the upstairs bathroom where there was toothpaste stains on the mirror. I walked around the house for about an hour barefoot and my feet turned black! When I contacted the property manager, Henry Wang, to inform him of these problems he was very rude and started blaming us for the problems instead of taking ownership. He kept saying that he was a premier host and that he never gets complaints so we just had to be lying. We were not lying. He was gaslighting us trying to force us to leave rather then addressing the problem. We would have left but he only gave us an hour to leave which was not nearly enough time to call VrBO and speak to a representative (who was not helpful at all in a situation like this.) and gather our stuff and find a new place to stay. There was no guarantee that we would have found something that last minute for 8 girls to stay in. When he asked us to leave he said “either stay with no more complaints or leave”. That is no way to talk to a customer. The host honestly ruined our trip. He added a cloud of frustration. He spoke with much hostility, lack of empathy and no willingness to change. He claimed that he talked to his cleaning people and they said they checked off everything on his extensive cleaning list. But, honestly, if that’s the standards he holds them to you’re better off booking a hotel or a completely different listing. The house was beautiful yes, but was not worth being treated and talk to the way we were. I reached out to him hoping to come to some sort of solution or compromise but he did not allow that. So here I am writing this bad review because he refused to act like a human being with decency and empathy. The host added hostility to our trip and took away from our experience. Causing us stress and discomfort. I would not recommend staying with him or VrBO, unless you’re okay with being treated with disrespect.
4.0 / 5.0
Spacious
Had a nice stay! Power was out on top 2 floors but after a call to the owners was fixed very quickly. Plenty of space for a family
Of 4 to spread out for a wedding weekend.
5.0 / 5.0
Endless Charm and Character
Really can't say enough about this place. Selected it specifically for the tub in the master bath. Oversized, even someone over 6' tall can fully submerge and recover after a long day of training. The bed in the master suite envelopes you. Get ready for a great night of rest! The kitchen provides all the amenities one may need. Henry was considerate enough to check in every day to ensure I had everything I needed. The house is located close enough to anywhere, everywhere. The neighborhood is safe. The showers are great: hot, hot water and ample pressure. Definitely look forward to staying here again.
