About this property

**HostWise Stays** Family Friendly, Park Free, War Streets!

Experience historic charm with modern comfort in the heart of the Mexican War Streets! Our home, originally built in 1890, is a kid-friendly 2BD/2BA retreat. It features a game room, soaring ceilings, and thoughtful touches throughout. Relax in plush beds on 2 different floors, enjoy a fully stocked kitchen, and soak in natural light from stunning windows. Walk to PNC Park, the Warhol Museum, & top restaurants! Perfect for families, remote work, or a stylish getaway—book now while you can!

Pittsburgh’s Mexican War Streets are a historic home lover’s dream, brimming with 19th-century charm and vibrant local culture. Originally called Buena Vista, the neighborhood gets its unique name from streets honoring figures and battles of the Mexican-American War, and most of the stunning row homes here date back to the 1800s.

This walkable, NYC- or Boston-style enclave is home to the Mattress Factory Museum, the colorful explosion that is Randyland, indie coffee shops, cozy restaurants, and a handful of lively bars. And when you're ready to explore beyond the neighborhood, you're just a short walk to the North Shore, where you’ll find PNC Park, Acrisure Stadium (let’s be real, it’ll always be Heinz Field), Stage AE, and the best bars & restaurants along the riverfront.

Safe, family-friendly, and one of Pittsburgh’s most sought-after places to live, the Mexican War Streets feel like a world of their own. Stroll past **gorgeous brownstone row homes, soak in the history, and experience the neighborhood like a true local!

We recommend using Uber or Lyft to navigate Pittsburgh—it’s a notoriously tricky city to drive in, but with little traffic! Rideshares are affordable and abundant. If you do choose to drive, we offer free street parking with our included digital parking permit.

2. People other than those in the Guest party may not stay overnight in the property without prior notice. Any other person in the property is the sole responsibility of Guest. The host has not represented this unit as an event facility, therefore, there is a limit to the number of any visitors at any one time (in addition to registered occupants) of four (4) up to a maximum of eight (8) persons in the property at any given time. At no time may any of these visitors remain overnight or assume any guest privileges whatsoever.

3. The host is not responsible for any accidents, injuries or illness that occurs while on the premises or its facilities. The host is not responsible for the loss of personal belongings or valuables of the guest. By accepting this reservation, it is agreed that all guests are expressly assuming the risk of any harm arising from their use of the premises or others whom they invite to use the premises.

4. We offer a Chore-Free Checkout, and do not ask our guests to clean prior to check out. However, this does not give permission to leave a mess; cleaning that requires substantially more time than usual due to excessive trash, stains, spills, etc., will be charged to the Guest at $40 per hour.

5. Late check-outs are not permitted without prior discussion, as our cleaning teams are punctual. Late check outs require additional cleaners to be brought in, and will be charged at $50 in half hour increments.

6. If Guest cancels the trip past the cancellation window deadline, Host is willing to refund if any dates are rebooked. This refund is provided only above and beyond the cancellation amount, up to a full refund. Hosts understand plans can change, and don't believe in "double-dipping" if Guest nights are able to be rebooked.

7. There is no daily housekeeping service. The property has been thoroughly cleaned prior to your arrival; linens, bath towels, toiletries, and more are included in the stay. Additional supplies or mid-stay cleanings are available for additional cost.

8. While we love our furry friends, pets are not permitted, as many guests have sensitivities. A deep cleaning fee of $300 will be charged if clear evidence is found.

9. Host happily invites children with the following stipulations:

- Guests are responsible for any and all necessary baby proofing

First time

The property was great. Placement of wash/dryer was in a difficult place - on lowest level by entrance. The check in process was excessive. I am a VRBO property owner and never have my or any other process was so excessive in the verification process. Our stay was delightful though
