It's a big functional space with a lot of amenities. The main kitchen / living room / dining / office space is good for hanging out. If you have a big group, there is lots of space to sleep and to enjoy meals and have fun.The first shortcoming is that it is not 3BA space, but only 2.5. There is no 3rd shower. And, for one of the existing showers, the water flow and pressure was really low and unpleasant.As you can see from some of the photos in the listing, there are not a lot of proper floor-to-ceiling rooms. The "loft" nature of the space means that everything is kind of open, and the natural light from the windows on one side of the apartment reaches other rooms through holes at the top of the walls. This means sound travels throughout the space and there is little ability to have any privacy. Might be fine for some, but if you value quiet, private space, you might want to rethink this rental.Lastly, the location is pretty central, while also not really being walking distance to much. But, you're like a 5-10 minute drive to locations in Oakland, Squirrel Hill, East Liberty and Bakery Square.
