Great place for our extended family to stay. It was walking distance to many places to eat. There is even a playground nearby for the kids. The three separate apartments let us hang out together in a common area, but then have privacy for sleeping.

Family Reunion

Had a wonderful family trip to Pittsburgh! The house suited all of our needs and allowed all to stay under one roof for our brief family reuniting. The property itself is in a busy area with a lot of street noise so be sure to pick one of the back bedrooms if you are a light sleeper. Also, pricing is based on a 12 person occupancy. The host was very accommodating in responding to questions and concerns!

Great location for a University of Pittsburgh graduation

This was a great location for our extended family to attend our nephew’s graduation from the University of Pittsburgh. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms and the location was in walking distance to the restaurants our nephew wanted to share with us. The proximity to restaurants and activities also meant that the front bedrooms shared in the celebratory mood from the street. The 4 parking spots were a big plus. The host was very responsive. The apartment-style layout did require us to be creative when the family wanted to gather together. Great rental.

We enjoyed our stay!

Our non profit team enjoyed a number of days at this VRBO. It worked really well for our group. We loved the exposed brick and beams. The climate control was comfortable. The unit was clean except for a number of the dishes were a little dirty as well as some of the walls and cabinet handles. There were no dish clothes so we had to buy some of those. Overall, it was a good experience!

Family weekend

We traveled to visit my son for Pitts family weekend. The place was great for the multiple families we had. Kitchen was well equipped as well as other necessity that were included. Several bars and shops along the street so is a little loud in the evenings but not terrible. Convenient location.

Front bathroom not at all good. Poor exhaust. Shower curtain rod poorly placed.

Space lacks natural lighting. Front entrance door has gaps. Push button lock sometimes does not lock easily, have to try multiple times. Bedroom carpet poor quality.Overall not bad, but TOO PRICEY.

Great 2-night extended family stay

We recently took a quick trip to Pittsburgh with 3 other families, 4 in total. The house was perfect for our families! The kids enjoyed getting to stay together, yet we had enough privacy that everyone could rest and relax. We had a great time!

A Location With Lots of Energy!

This location is right in the middle of the action. Walk out the front door for and no matter what direction, there's great restaurants, bars, etc in all directions. We liked how the space is flexible so you can book 1, 2 or 3 units depending on your needs. We enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

Weekend in Pittsburgh

What a great property for a large group of people. The house was clean and very well maintained. It had everything we needed! The 4 parking spaces were an added bonus. We came into the city to see the Phillies play the Pirates and had an amazing time! The location is perfect- we spent Friday night on Carson Street and took a quick Uber to downtown for Picklesburgh and the game on Saturday. I would highly recommend this property! The owner is very responsive.

We had a fantastic stay! The house was perfect for our stay. We had 11 people, (family and friends) ages 15 and up. We were in town to see a Steelers game. Everything you need is with in walking distance, Uber or Door dash. Michael was responsive and made the stay perfect! We hope to do it again next year! Thank you, Michael!!

Good for Multiple Family Group

We were in from out of state for a long weekend to attend a family wedding in Pittsburgh. Worked well with multiple families staying in one place. Enough room for everyone (16 adults/8 couples) but also enough space to meet everyone's needs. We cooked some meals in, but there are also a lot of resteraunts and bars within walking distance. Liked that we hade space included to park 4 vehicles.

City culture

The apartment was spacious enough for our whole group. We could spread out and there were plenty of bathrooms. We were close to everything city-life has to offer. The only drawback was the parking. 4 spaces behind the apartment were good. If you have more cars for a big group there is convenient parking in a lot directly behind the apartment, but there is a cost to park there. Of course, I realize 4 free spaces are abundant for a city apartment, so I really can’t complain. Overall, if you have a big group, this is probably the best place to stay in a city. The owner was very, very helpful and he answered my many questions very promptly. We had a nice stay.

Perfect for our weekend get-together.

Plenty of room for everyone to gather, but also enough privacy to have some down time. Had everything we needed, and found everything as described. One or two comments about outside noise both in alley behind house and front sidewalks. Most likely out of the owner's control. Would suggest moving the shower curtain bar closer to the floor on first floor walk-in shower, as the floor got unavoidably wet, though we tried... Thank you for a great venue. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance. The free parking was a great bonus!!

Pitt Graduation Celebration at The Schenley!

The Schenley is a MUST for a large family gathering. We had four families with a total of 13 people fit comfortably inside the three apartments with several empty beds available for our daughter’s college friends that crashed for an evening or two. It is in a great location in the Southside Flats just walking distance to lots of great restaurants and bars. We easily walked to Fat Heads Saloon, Hofbrauhaus, and the Tiki Bar for lunch, dinner, and drinks, respectively. Each apartment is fully stocked with everything you need (linens, towels, laundry, kitchenwares) to function as if you were at your own home. We were able to let everyone leisurely roll out of bed for breakfast on their own schedule and had a nice spots to sit in the living areas to socialize in the afternoons and evenings. We loved our time at The Schenley and it really made our Pitt graduation celebration so fun to enjoy with everyone under one roof.

2 Stars in Pittsburgh

The dirty & run down condition of the units of this property is why I’m giving it 2 stars. Examples include:-Food remnants in the kitchen.-Dirty utensils.-Mold covered fridge gasket.-Ring of dirt/grease top of range.-Food encrusted silverware-ea piece needing to be washed before use.-Floors not swept/washed in units. Feet stuck to floor.*Had to clean each of the above points to make units useable.Entire property needs to be deeply cleaned. Each unit needs painting as the walls are dirty & stained. Rugs need to be replaced in each unit, including rugs on stairs leading to second floor & landing, due to filth. The rug in the bedroom of unit 2 is heavily soiled w/ a foot traffic stain path. Furniture needs replacing, as it is very dirty, stained, including broken stool & chair. Members of our group of 13 found furniture uncomfortable. Cooking was challenge w/ pots & pans flaking & unable to use safely. Front door needs to be replace, as it currently does not sit properly in frame & had gaps around & in it. The front door had to be closed just so for locking door when leaving. Keyless entry pad needs to be replaced because the way numbers are worn allows for someone to guess code & gain entry-this is a safety issue! Entering unit 2 on the 1st day, the floor & counters were so sticky, oily, & dirty. Had to purchase cleaning supplies & spent hours cleaning to make it tolerable. The washer/dryer in unit 1 didn’t function properly, requiring additional & time @ laundromat.

Perfect location for our stay

We came to Pittsburgh to celebrate a family member who loves the Steelers and heard all good things about Pittsburgh and the people here. This house with its three separate apartments was perfect for our needs. There was plenty of common space to spend time together but more importantly, when spending 24x7 with family, it offered more than enough private space for everyone to have a spot to retreat to. We had 10 people actually end up staying as four in our party had to back out but we would have felt the same privacy even if they had come. The owner was responsive and proactive, coming to fix things we didn’t know were broken arriving when we first entered to ensure all was in working order having notified us ahead. Great communication! The apartments are all updated, simply and comfortably decorated/furnished. Could use a colander but we managed with what we found. Finally the location was within 20 minutes drive time max of all the points of interest we were interested in. We also felt safe walking the neighborhood as well as getting to the beautiful walking/bike riding trail that followed along a river. I would highly recommend this for any large family gathering or for friends that want to share a location and enjoy common and private time together.

Walked in and quickly walked out

Unfortunately the property is nothing like what is represented on the listing and photos. Extremely run down and outdated, very unsafe neighborhood and you have to park around the block in back of the property (no rear entrance) in a dark alley. For younger people it might be just fine, but for 8 women in their 50’s it just did not work. We walked in, were there for 30 minutes, and paid for 8 hotel rooms elsewhere. The owner refused to give even a partial refund.

Great stay in hip Pittsburgh neighborhood

Having grown up in the ‘Burg, it was great to see the South side revitalized. It was perfect for our family groupings; we had six sets of folks (parents/adult kids on their own/adult kids with partners) who each had plenty of privacy and space! Thank you!
