SOME CHOICE GUEST BOOK COMMENTS INCLUDE:
"The Pittsburgh Loft House is an interesting, eclectic place. It was great having two full bathrooms. Bob and Sheila are wonderful hosts and quick to communicate. My husband, daughter, and I came down with bad colds. Robert offered to go out and buy us medicine or bring soup or hot tea. We thought that was so sweet. Also, when we arrived, it was great to find snacks, breakfast food, coffee, and tea. They even made sure there was decaf coffee for me."
