I couldnt recommend Alisons place more! She is an excellent host and roommate. Communication was quick and thorough, she answered all of my questions in detail regardless of how many times I asked. Her house is very clean and well stocked with everything you need. She is super easy to get along with and made her home feel like your own. Chamo is a bonus roommate, the cutest dog ever! Her house is also super close to the city or shopping on McKnight road. A less than 10 minute drive to AGH. Parking is plenty easy to find at the house, as the adjacent street is less busy and always has spots open. If Im ever back in PGH, Ill be staying with Alison!

A is a wonderful representation of what it means to be both an excellent landlord and roommate. A went above and beyond to make sure my stay at her place was comfortable. From personally driving me to and from the airport, having occasional meals and movie nights together, to delegating space to accommodate for me and for my guests, A was perfect! Travelers should definitely book your stay here! It was everything I wanted and more. Thank you so much, A!

Had a wonderful stay for the month I was here on a clinical rotation at AGH. A was a great host and made sure I felt at home from day 1. The Observatory Hill area is quiet and low key. The home itself had a very welcoming and peaceful atmosphere, and was always kept very clean. Also, A's dog, Chamo, was super sweet and well-behaved. The room had everything I could need, a comfy bed, plenty of dresser and closet space, desk, TV, and a lot of natural light. There was ample fridge/freezer space for food and the kitchen had everything you could need for cooking. There's a bus stop for the 8 line right next to the house that's runs every 15 minutes and is a straight shot to AGH in ~20 minutes for any traveling healthcare workers without a car. Overall, I had a great stay and highly recommend this spot to future travelers!

    My experience with home-stays in a variety of foreign countries - Romania, Greece, Ecuador, Nicaragua, Colombia, and Japan (to name a few), greatly impacted my life and world view for the better. My goal is to offer a pleasant and welcoming stay to travelers in my hometown of Pittsburgh. I have taught Spanish for 16 years and I am a life-long learner just as I teach my students to be.
