If any problems arise, I will do my best to take action ASAP, but there is no one living on-site 24/7. I do not have cable for either TV, but both TVs are Smart TVs, which means you can log into your favorite streaming service (Hulu, Netflix, HBO, Disney+, etc.) to access all of your favorite shows/ channels!

Cesare M.
September 2025 5.00I have found myself very well in the apartment. The area is nice, outside from the noise of the city but still central. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen had all the appliances to cook. Points to improve are the following: 1) the general cleanness of the apartment can be higher, 2) the shower has low water pressure, 3) the shutters in the bedroom do not work well.

August 2025 4.00Nice apartment in a quiet, walkable neighborhood! I will note two things: 1 - the wifi is very slow. 2 - there are a 3 flights of stairs to get into the actual apartment. If those two notes don't matter to you, then this place is totally worth it! Great location & responsive host.

August 2025 5.00The apartment was well-appointed, well-laid-out, and squeaky clean. Instructions for check-in were very clear. Our host, Jake, responded quickly to messages and was both hospitable and helpful. Highly recommended!

Alexandra D.
July 2025 5.00Had a great stay! The only thing was we didn’t have hot shower water for the first bit but Jake was very receptive to messages and took care of it in a timely manner. Great location too.
Amber J.
July 2025 5.00This is my second time staying at one of Jake’s properties and I would definitely recommend it! Jake is very communicative and friendly. The apartment was very nice and exactly as described. We were a bit worried that being an attic apartment it may be too hot in July, but the central air was amazing! We would definitely stay again.
Gabrielle M.
June 2025 5.00Super great host! Very responsive! Great location!
Elile O.
June 2025 5.00Jake’s place had everything we needed and was exactly as described. He was very responsive to any inquiries, which made the stay smooth and enjoyable. I had a great experience and would definitely recommend it to others.
Kay H.
June 2025 4.00This was a convenient airbnb that was very comfortable. Location is close to Shadyside’s businesses and grocery store in a walkable, quiet area. Also convenient for bus transportation which we used several times. Overall was as advertised and host was very responsive when we had questions. New carpet would really freshen up the apartment—currently quite stained and worn. Kitchen was well stocked and we appreciated having supplies for morning coffee. Nice laundry amenities, TV, comfortable bed and couch.
Liz H.
June 2025 5.00Thank you! I was visiting Pittsburgh for work, so I was looking for a place with an extended stay where I could rely on walking and public transit. I also needed a pet friendly place. Jake's place did all this, and I am super happy with the experience. I had a productive and relaxing trip.
Edison J.
May 2025 5.00Jake was an incredible host. Very easy check in and check out with clear instructions. The space was incredibly cozy for a quick visit. Thank you very much! I’ll be back here for sure!
Jonathan Y.
May 2025 5.00Thanks for a cozy stay! was exactly what I needed.
Brad S.
May 2025 5.00I lived in Pittsburgh, in the same neighborhood actually, so in my opinion, Jake’s place is a perfect place to stay if you’re visiting. Accessible to the entire east side of town and plenty of options for going further away, it’s in a great location. The unit was perfect for what my wife and I needed while we were on vacation, especially since we could bring our dog. Would definitely recommend and we will absolutely stay here again the next time we come to Pittsburgh.
Katie D.
May 2025 5.00Very responsive host — place was very cozy for a weekend stay.
Erin A.
May 2025 5.00We had a very nice stay at this apartment. It was clean and comfortable. It is a charming place…had the typical Pittsburgh feel to it. It is an older building, needs a few updates (cracking floor tiles), but nothing that truly distracted from the stay itself. Jake was responsive. We had all the appropriate information to access the place ahead of time, as well as some helpful hints about the place. I will say to be prepared for a lot of stairs (outside concrete steps and 2 flights of narrow indoor steps). It is a nice place and convenient location for most things you would want to do in Pittsburgh. There are a couple restaurants and shops close by that you can walk to.
Regina J.
May 2025 5.00Very great stay
Vishal R.
April 2025 5.00Jake's place was clean, tidy and ideally located near the University Campuses.
Kelly M.
April 2025 5.00I’ve stayed at one of Jake’s properties probably around 4 or 5 times now and every single time it’s a 10/10!!! Every time I plan on getting an Airbnb, I always hope to see one of Jake’s properties available! Definitely my go to host. Great support any time I have a special request (early/late check in/out) he’s always happy to accommodate me if possible! Very nice people Jake & his co hosts. As always, I absolutely recommend!
Jared B.
April 2025 5.00Clean and well-located attic apartment with a wonderful comfortable bed. The reservation and check-in process was easy and we always found street parking, not matter the time. Highly recommended -- great proximity to East Liberty, Shadyside (Walnut St. just over the tracks 3 blocks), and UPMC.
Emily G.
April 2025 5.00This is the second time I stayed in this lovely apartment. It's very comfortable and a relaxing place to come home to. Great walks in the neighborhood, grocery store and cafe around the corner, and easy to get to many places in the city. I would highly recommend it!
Stacey F.
April 2025 5.00Jake was very responsive and the information he provided was accurate and helpful. The apartment was exactly what we expected based on the description and photos in the listing. The apartment was spotless and very comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet and we felt safe, especially when walking our dog at night. Our large German Shepherd had some difficulty navigating the steep and narrow stairs, but she is generally clumsy. Overall, we enjoyed our short stay and would definitely come back again!
Islam I.
April 2025 5.00Jake was incredibly helpful—even close to midnight, he assisted with check-in and helped me find parking in the area. He also gave great advice to check in early. The house was super clean and well-organized. After a long, exhausting drive from Connecticut, the smooth check-in made a big difference. Thanks again, Jake—definitely recommended!
Sydney Z.
April 2025 5.00Clean, communicative, and a short walk away from Walnut St with lots of restaurants and shops.

Nura S.
November 2024 3.00Highlight of this place: Market district. Nearby laundromat. Cons about this place: I wouldn’t recommend to this place unless u want mice running around the house including the bedroom when u around. I had inform the owner however he only called the pest control after I send photos proofs of the mouse running around across the living room. I had to buy my own traps and rodent repellant. I wanted to shorten the stay but the stay here very expensive to begin with. It’s not worth the distress the pest has cause me. The flooring of the kitchen is coming apart where chips of the cements hurt my feet a couple of times. Don’t bother doing laundry there unless u love the dark. The house has lots of steps altogether 3 flights of stairs and poorly lighted corridors. If ur a carrying a heavy luggage, please proceed with caution. With the price I’m paying I would expected more but very dissatisfied.
Randy M.
October 2024 5.00Loved the location, the apartment, and the hospitality of Jake. I 100% recommend this for your travels to Pittsburgh.
Brian B.
October 2024 5.00Nice stay. Clean Apartment.
Stephen R.
October 2024 5.00It was short stay but ideal for me visiting Shady Side and Bloomfield.
Zina L.
September 2024 4.00It was clean. The bed was comfy! Jake was very responsive and friendly. We knew there were stairs, but there are a lot of stairs! Coming from the west we are not use to this. We stayed 15 days. If you don’t want to constantly be doing laundry bring a few extra hand towels. Laundry is a pay machine but we used our sons. Grocery store really close. The pizza on the corner is wonderful too. Only about a mile walk to Target.
Mickey H.
September 2024 5.00Absolutely recommend staying here. Excellent location, clean and beautiful apartment. Jake was super responsive and friendly
Adam H.
September 2024 5.00The Airbnb was very clean and it felt like home away from home. The Airbnb is tucked away down a side street, which made it feel residential. Jake was communicative and responsive, answering any questions we had leading up to and throughout our stay. It’s in a central location with many restaurants and a grocery store within walking distance. Perfect stay for a weekend getaway.
Angela T.
September 2024 4.00Great host and outstanding value! would stay here again!
Gonzalo F.
September 2024 5.00I absolutely recommend Jake's place!. He was very responsive and helpful. The place was in perfect condition and the location is great. I would definitely book again.
Laura K.
August 2024 4.00Nice, clean place as advertised, comfortable mattress and well equipped kitchen. A few things to note… outside stairs are steep and uneven, difficult for accessibility. Bathroom could use some attention. Hot water control was erratic and limited towel hooks and counter space. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay.
Yunxiang C.

William N.
June 2024 5.00We’ve stayed with Jake before. His places are always great. We enjoyed ourselves.
Bryn K.
June 2024 5.00I really enjoyed my longer term stay at Jake's place. The kitchen was well equipped. Jake was friendly and responsive. Traveling with a dog there weren't great grassy options right from the apartment for him to go to the bathroom, but that wasn't unexpected in the city. It also encouraged me to go to parks for walks. Schenley and Frick park were both a short drive away. Would definitely recommend Jake's place.
Gayle R.
May 2024 5.00Jake was unbelievably helpful, responsive, and open to hearing my suggestions, which I appreciate. Both of the places I stayed that Jake was the host were very nice. My bad and I’ll take responsibility for it. I need to read the Airbnb’s closer because this is new to me. If you are not physically fit this property has stairs going to the front door and then another two flights of stairs getting up to the apartment because it is an older building For me the stairs were very difficult. Other than that, I give the host 100%..
Mina S.
May 2024 5.00Very nice place and exactly as described. Would stay again for sure.
Janette L.
May 2024 5.00I had a fantastic stay at Jake's apartment in the Shadyside neighbourhood of Pittsburgh. The space was clean, tastefully decorated, and equipped with all the amenities I needed. The location was perfect, with easy access to local attractions, restaurants, and public transportation. The host was responsive and check-in was super easy. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.
Anuradha S.
May 2024 5.00We had a wonderful time at Jake’s place. Wonderful experience and he is a great host, very responsive and accommodating . I recommend his place.
Erica C.
May 2024 5.00Our daughter lives in Shadyside, and there are no hotels within walking distance. We booked Jake’s place because of its proximity, and found it so easy to walk to tons of other local places as well. Lots of great restaurants and shopping in the area. We loved that Jake’s place was easy to get into and had a king sized bed. That can be very hard to find! Everything was clean and Jake was incredibly responsive. We would absolutely stay again!
Cindy M.
April 2024 5.00Great location. Jake was very prompt on any questions I had. I really appreciated his promptness. The apartment was in a good location, close to Shadyside..using a pedestrian walkway you could easily walk to Walnut street and all the great restaurants and shops. The only challenge was street parking. Also since it is a 3rd floor apartment - there were a couple flights of stairs to climb, so if you are physically challenged this may not be the place for you. The apartment was clean, safe and quiet neighbor, and a good location. And an excellent considerate host.
Sarah M.
April 2024 5.00This was a great stay! The place was very clean and spacious. The location was ideal for us since we were going to CMU. I would stay here again!
Ilyssa T.
April 2024 3.00The place was certainly private and quiet. Overall the place clean enough. Was disappointed in the mildew odor and visible mold in the shower. We planned a meal for our first night as it was a holiday and due to the stuff stuck on the bottom of the oven our food tasted like smoke. We also had to go buy pans to cook with. Finding parking was no easy task. Definitely misleading to just say “free street parking” - would have preferred to know we would have to drive around and “get lucky”.
Cameron E.
April 2024 5.00I always want to stay at Jake’s properties when visiting Pittsburgh. They are consistently top notch, as is his service as a host. From comfortable amenities to great communication, 5 stars per usual.
Edward L.
April 2024 5.00Flexible and willing to accommodate last minute schefuling
Cal L.
April 2024 5.00Nice homey space with a comfortable bed and furniture. Jake was good about communicating and staying in touch when I had questions.
Ahmet K.
April 2024 5.00CMU veya UPMC ye çok yakın. Ulaşımı kolay, huzurlu ve sakin bir daire. İhtiyaçlarınızı karşılıyor. Yalnızca üç kat merdiven inip çıkmanız gerekiyor. Öneririm.
Patricia W.
April 2024 4.00This is a brilliant fully private flat. Crisp yet welcoming decor, with the kitchen well kitted out, a huge and comfortable bed, great soft lighting, spotless throughout. Jake was incredibly responsive, for which I was very grateful. The instructions for the coded lock weren’t accurate, but he helped me through it. I also wasn’t prepared for as many stairs - or how narrow they were - but Jake came to help me get my suitcase down them as I left, saving me the worry. Nothing was too much for him. The lock and stairs were small issues in the scheme of things, and I’m sure he will do his best to improve them. It was a really super place to stay, and a great location, within walking distance of Shadyside etc. Thank you Jake!
Karen H.
April 2024 5.00Great place, we were very happy with it!
Camby J.
April 2024 5.00Jake was such a great host!!! I accidentally booked my airbnb for the wrong dates and he was super flexible and able to figure something out for me!! He responded very very quick and was super nice!

March 2024 5.00Jake's place was clean, quiet, homey, and comfortable (the bed was exceptionally comfortable!). Jake was so pleasant, responsive, and easy to communicate with. I'd recommend and would book again on a future trip to Pittsburgh.
Destiny B.
February 2024 5.00Perfect little getaway!! I look forward to staying again in the future!
Sara Z.
February 2024 5.00We spent a whole week in Jake’s apartment and we had a great time. The apartment is walking distance to restaurants and grocery stores: there were a few restaurants just down the street and a giant grocery store around the corner of the street. The apartment was clean and nicely arranged. One thing that stood out was Jake’s team’s communication: we were given clear and easy to follow instructions on how to check in, where to find things, and what to expect ahead of time. If we still had any questions, the team responded right away. We got a parking ticket since our street parking registration seemed to fall through the cracks. Thanks to Jake’s team quick response, our ticket was dismissed right away. A tiny thing that would have made our stay perfect: the water from the shower head was on the weak side since some of the water came out from the faucet. To be clear, the shower was working. We would book again if we come back to Pittsburgh.
Skye W.
February 2024 5.00Great place to spend the weekend at! Very clean and pet friendly. Host was very responsive when needed.
Quentin B.
February 2024 5.00everything was exactly as expected
My first visit to Pittsburgh made me excited. The quiet neighborhood was peaceful and it was nice to have a mart nearby. I needed extra towels, but I lived a life without any inconvenience because of the quick response. I'm glad I made good memories
Malcolm D.

Jessica B.
December 2023 5.00Perfect for a place to stay for a few nights in the city.
Kurt F.
December 2023 5.00Great location in relation to Shadyside with so much to do including incredible food and shopping locations just a short walk away. The neighborhood is very quiet and private and exactly what we had hoped. The space itself was a cozy third floor apartment that is perfectly tucked away for privacy. It is up two sets of stairs, so if you have trouble going up and down, it might not be the spot for you. But if you can handle the stairs, it is the perfect apartment in one of our favorite locations we have visited in Pittsburgh. Highly recommend staying with Jake if you are in the area.
Byron H.
December 2023 5.00Great place, would stay again

Henry M.
November 2023 5.00Excellent stay!
Linda Z.
November 2023 5.00This was a cozy place in a great location. It is 3 flights of stairs but I knew that from the description/reviews before I booked so it was not a problem. The bed was comfortable for both my spouse and myself and we normally have different ideas of a comfortable mattress. The place was quiet and comfortable. The neighborhood has a lot of local restaurants and food stores so once we got back from sightseeing, we were parked for the night and walked to a different place for dinner each night. We will definitely go back.
Keith G.
November 2023 5.00Thanks for a great place to stay.

Clara M.
August 2023 4.00Good option in Shadyside. Jake & team were very responsive.
Cricket H.
August 2023 4.00This is a good 1BR apartment in a convenient location and I always found parking in front at the end of the day. The stairs to the 3rd floor are steep and the outdoor stairs up to the building are uneven, which will be difficult for anyone with mobility issues. The bed is very comfortable. The kitchen pots and pans are old and could be updated. Jake and his team were very responsive and always friendly.

August 2023 5.00We had a very nice stay at Jake’s place! It was exactly as described and was very clean and cozy! There is free parking (be sure to follow Jake’s instructions) and keep in mind it is on the third floor. The beds were very comfortable and we loved sipping our coffee in the morning on the back stoop. Would definitely recommend.

June 2023 5.00Overall, a great apartment! The location can’t be beat. There are some narrow stairs, so beware if you struggle with that. Jake was an excellent host and very responsive and understanding when I inquired about a potential early check it. There were also pans for cooking which is always a nice touch. I would stay again!

June 2023 5.00Great stay!!! 10/10 would recommend.
Great all around!
Jake was very accommodating and responsive. We had some trouble getting into the apartment, and he was quick to help, as well as kind. The place was spotless, and the bed was very comfortable. The back deck was the perfect place to watch the sunset. It was exactly as described!
The apartment was comfortable and well located. Jake is easy to reach and is very courteous. Some things need to be addressed: broken knobs on the dresser, loose door knob on the bedroom door, broken towel bar in the bathroom, and the blinds in the bedroom. Apart from that, it is still a decent place to stay in Shadyside.
This apartment was gorgeous and absolutely perfect for my stay in Pittsburgh! I booked it last minute the night before, and asked for flexible check in and check out times. Not only did Jake and his team accommodate me in my requests, but their communication was prompt and courteous! It was a little tricky getting into the apartment because my code didn't work, but within minutes of contacting Jake's Team I had a new and workable code :) Street parking wasn't a problem, despite there being road/pipe work going on during my stay. The only thing (beyond anyone's control) that wasn't great was that the road/pipe work started at 8am, and it was not quiet - ha! :D The apartment is beautiful and spotless, and extremely comfortable. Thank you Jake, and your Team, for the wonderful stay and positive experience!
We stayed an enjoyable 2 weeks in this very pleasant apartment in May. The kitchen was well appointed and opens to a small outdoor deck. Living room was comfortable with large screen TV with Roku. The bedroom had a very large bed that was very comfortable and a desk. Pretty quiet building with 2 other rentals. We used the washer/dryer in the basement which worked well. (Bring quarters) You will get some good exercise with the stairs, as this is a 3rd floor unit. Thanks Jake!
Perfect stay! Definitely recommend this space, it’s clean, bright, airy and oh so comfortable! You won’t want to leave.
Fue muy atento a las peticiones
Great stay in a quiet neighborhood!
The place was as described and in a great location. It fit our needs well.
This property is in the heart of Shadyside and has access to good restaurants and coffee shops within walking distance. The unit was extremely clean and cosy, exactly as described and Jake was perfect host one can ask for. The unit is located on the 2nd floor, so you need to get through 2-3 flights of steep stairs so might be a challenge for older residents, having said that most units in the Shadyside, Pittsburgh neighborhood are laid out the same way. Overall I would rate our experience a 5/5. Would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat!
We had a wonderful stay, and Jake was very responsive and flexible. We'll definitely stay here the next time we're in the area.
Conveniently located loft apartment in Pittsburgh! Super practical layout, nice amenities. Be prepared to climb 2 flights of stairs though! The bed was super comfortable. Jake was great and super responsive.
great place to settle down!
This is a fantastic value in a great location in Pittsburgh. Jake is very responsive, totally on top of communication, and it was easy to find all the things a guest needs to know. Well stocked with the necessities like shampoo, conditioner, soap. Very comfortable mattress and pillows. Loved the little landing on the fire-escape that felt like a back porch. I would only caution anyone who has a hard time with stairs. This is a third floor apartment; there is a flight up stairs to the entrance and then two flights to the apartment. So, anyone who is unsteady or needs an accessible stay should look elsewhere. We had no problem, but my parents would. Five stars and a great stay with an experienced host.
The host was fantastic and responsive. The location was very close to a lot of things within Pittsburgh. The apartment felt homey and the setup was ideal for a weekend or long stay in the city. We drove and walked to things and both were easy to accomplish.
Perfect spot for us on a short weekend visit. Great place with plenty of room. Thanks!
Super clean. Bed was comfy
Jake was very responsive and humble and helpful!! Very cozy and lovely space for me and my mom during our 2-day visit to pittsburgh. Thankful for the heads up of the staircases—my mom has a bad knee but was able to make do, just know it is 3 steep flights of stairs! Check-in was easy enough that my mom was able to get in before me (side note she’s not super tech savvy so wins here!) The kitchen area was also lovely for cooking with plenty of dishes and oil/salt/pepper; we ended up just staying in for our dinners to cook instead of spending lots of money out on the town! Bring some spices if you’d like to do anything more gourmet ;) Was also highly surprised by how quiet the apartment was! I never heard the house neighbors! Would overall highly recommend!
The apartment was exactly as described and was clean. Neighbors were quiet. Grocery store and several restaurants in walking distance. Street parking was hard to find, and sometimes we parked quite far away. The train is only a few houses away, but wasn't too loud when in the house. As described, the apartment is on the third floor, and the stairs are somewhat narrow.
Jake’s place was the perfect place to visit our son who’s studying at CMU.
We had a fantastic time in Pittsburgh and have zero complaints about Jake's Airbnb. The apartment was spotless and the check-in instructions were easy to comprehend. The only misunderstanding we experienced was the general location (we thought there would be more things to do within walking distance, totally user error). All in all, the Airbnb in Shadyside was exactly what we needed. Jake was beyond helpful and we were extremely pleased that he was eager to also accommodate our puppy! Thank you!!
Jake was a wonderful host. He was kind and understanding. The place was spotless and it felt like home. I would definitely stay again or at any of Jakes properties.
Great apartment in a convenient location!
Great location and price. Will definitely try this place again when visiting the area.
Super cozy and clean. Great location. TV subscription makes me really feel at home. Highly recommend!
We enjoyed our stay; the apartment was very comfortable and we loved the location. We were able to walk to different venues that included shopping and restaurants. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks Jake, for a wonderful stay.
Very nice place. Highly recommend
This place was great and I would stay again. Very good value and described accurately. I was working remotely and the internet was spotty both days for Zoom bandwidth. Internet was almost fast enough but I’d get the “your connection is unstable” notice a lot. This isn’t always on the host however (not sure how internet is in Pittsburgh). Otherwise place was awesome. I’ll definitely stay here again if visiting but will find another place to work during the day!
The apartment was as wonderful and comfortable as the pictures. I loved staying there, it felt like a vacation! Communication with Jake was easy and I would stay there again.
Great location. Clean and pleasant space. Host was very accessible. Lots of steps for anyone with mobility issues. Had a great carefree stay.
Jake is an excellent host. His communication was superb and the apartment looked just like the photos! I highly recommend staying at his place if you would like to stay somewhere that is walkable and central. Despite having a car, I rarely used it because I was able to easily walk to a number of different delicious restaurants in the Shadyside and East Liberty areas.
jake’s airbnbs never fail to disappoint - so clean, lovely, and with all of the comforts of home. easy check in process, great location. could not recommend more highly.
It was a great stay! Very clean and nice.
Great stay — perfect location, close to everything, clean, tidy, and really checks all the boxes for a high-quality and enjoyable Airbnb.
The place was great. Everything was as pictured. the bed was really comfortable. Lots of groceries, restaurants, and cafes near there. We went all over Pittsburgh from there, by bus one day ($7 day pass highly recommended), and one day by ebike (rented by jiggers Cafe). I really like the Korean restaurant just 2.5 blocks up the road from there on Centre.
Nice and clean place
A quiet neighborhood, walking distance to major streets in both Shadyside and East Liberty. For a pet-friendly place, very very clean. Not quite pristine, but definitely clean. Jake is an excellent communicator, and the place is well-managed if not necessarily cared for (which, again, is totally fine for a place at this price point). The stairs are no joke, but that's PGH for you! :) I would stay again for sure.
This place was a great place to stay for a little getaway. A nice, quiet location but not too far from downtown. Very neat and clean.
Great little apartment and an excellent location.
Tons of clear communication from Jake, which contributed to a very easy and comfortable stay in this unit! The list was not at all unclear about this, but on the off chance anyone is uncomfortable with stairs, this unit does have 2 fairly narrow/steep staircases from the sidewalk to the living space.
This is a great apartment and very close to Pitt. I would definitely stay here again.
I highly recommend this place, it is very clean and organized, Jake is easy to talk to and responds very quickly if you gave any questions, and it is in a very nice part of town with lots to do within a 20 minute driving range!!
Great location and great amenities and close to everything the city could offer!
.
We would stay here again. Check in was a breeze. The location was excellent, quiet and walking distance to restaurants and shopping. The house was very quiet. The only downside is that it is on the third floor, so you have to get your luggage up the narrow staircases. Pack light my friends haha
Great location! Very clean and private, neighborhood is cute as hell. King bed is absolutely giant. Host = very gracious. Excellent home base while exploring the neighborhood.
Great place in a great location. Jake was extremely helpful in all respects with regard to the apartment and the city. Description of the apartment was spot-on accurate.
Our third stay at another location owned by Jake. Completely satisfied once again! Great communication. Great area. Great home. Everything you would want in a stay he will provide that to you at all of his locations.
Host was great, with high efficiency communication. Made sure everything was good and recommended local places to eat and have fun. Apartment was clean and prepared with everything you needed. Spectacular location! However, climbing the two floors with big suitcases wasn’t fun at all.
Aside from street parking which can be slightly difficult and a few stairs, apt. is great for a short term stay.
