So often we are asked to explain details which are already clearly stated and/or shown in photos in the listing. To ensure a good & trustful relationship we like to learn a little about our guests and the goals and expectations they have for the visit prior to accepting a booking. This also helps us come up with possible recommendations and some custom-tailored advice for your stay.

We came for an event at the convention center. This location was perfect for us. Ben provided a good supply of breakfast items and gave us some bread from a local bakery. He met us to let us in and show us around. There was good communication throughout the whole process. The loft was spacious and well supplied. We were very happy with our stay.

Ben was a fantastic host throughout our stay. He communicated well throughout our weekend, worked with us logistically to store our luggage prior to the check in time, and gave great recommendations on things to do / places to see. The loft is located in a great location, within a 20 minute walk of downtown, Heinz Field, the Strip District, etc. The four of us stayed very comfortably and there was still room for many more. If we ever return to the Pittsburgh area, this would be the place we would stay.

Our hosts were very nice and accommodating! Loved chatting when we arrived. The location was comfortable, cozy, colorful, and felt like I could live there. We rented 2 separate places in that neighborhood as a group for a conference and everyone was happy. I enjoyed walking over the bridge and the city view. I highly recommend Eva & Ben!

Nice People to Work With
This downtown area rental was a nice place to visit. Owners met us there upon arrival and had the place well stocked with first day food, water, snacks, and plenty of soap for the dishwasher and washing machine. Not many places will do this for guests! The place isn't in the nicest area, but we were able to walk to PNC Park without a problem. The inside parking was great to keep our car secure. I would recommend this place for 4 adults. It would be hard to get more than one adult on either of the two futons in the place. If we were to return to Pittsburgh, this would be a place we would consider renting again. One wish we'd like to see is cable television. We didn't spend a lot of time at the rental, but when we did, cable/satellite tv would have been awesome.
