The Andrew and Andy on Mt. Washington

Summary:
The Andrew and Andy apartment is great for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers and families visiting Pittsburgh. It is located on Mt. Washington, steps away from the Monongahela Incline and the Grandview lookouts, and the bars, restaurants and shops of Shiloh Street.

A short and scenic incline ride to Station Square, guests can use public transit to visit city destinations like PNC Park, Heinz field, PPG Paints arena, David Lawrence Convention Center, Stage AE and downtown theaters.

The Space:
One bedroom apartment with outdoor patio and separate entrance. Recently renovated/decorated and a very comfortable, relaxed environment. Second floor of a three story building (walk-up) at the top of Mt. Washington providing spectacular views from almost every room. Apartment is located on the second floor of a walk-up building.

The Andrew and Andy apartment is professionally cleaned after each guest's visit and stocked with fresh linens, coffee, tea, cooking essentials and a fully stocked kitchen. There is free wifi, a smart TV to connect to Netflix, Hulu, Amazon or your cable subscription.

There is also a comfortable desk with a light and power-strip for those who can't leave their work behind.

Guest Access:
Guests have unfettered access to the full apartment through both common building stairwell as well as separate door to the patio and backyard. Keyless entry (unique ID access pad) makes coming and going easy.

The Neighborhood:
Mt. Washington is located in the city of Pittsburgh on the bluff looking over downtown. It is an old-school Italian neighborhood, well kept, very authentic, great gelato available in summer time, mix of both nice bars/restaurants that are a little bit touristy (those on Grandview Ave), and old neighborhood favorites where you can hear locals debate the best way from dahntahn back up to Mt. Warshington (yes, the true Pittsburgh accent is still very much alive - remember, Pittsburgh has been called both the "Paris of Appalachia" due to it being the cultural capital of the area and the "Galapagos Islands of linguistics" because trust me, yinz've never heard anything like the local dialect). Every Saturday night (around midnight - 3AM), Pittsburgh's Swing City offers public swing dancing and great music on the Grandview lookout in front of St. Mary of the Mount!

Getting Around:
One short block from Monongahela Incline (image search online, it is VERY unique to Pittsburgh). Can ride the incline down to Station Square T stop (Pittsburgh's subway system) and are a couple of stops from the ballparks or PPG Paints Arena (or on foot it's a very pleasant 20 minute walk across downtown with two bridges providing EPIC photo ops of the city and the stadiums). Uber and Lyft also work great from this location.

Other Things to Note:
It's a great apartment, great location and within a building with a great history (over 100 year old building used to be an Italian Social Club and boarding house).

Interaction with Guests:
I live close by, so I am available to provide assistance as needed - restaurant recommendations, things to do, etc. but the apartment is fully self-contained for the privacy of guests.
