Upon arrival our room still had old food in the fridge and hair in the shower on the floor. Unfortunately our view was of the back of a building and alley but that happens. The beds were hard as a rock along with the pillows. We were looking forward to a good nights sleep and the only thing we got was back pain. The free breakfast was subpar. Sausage was cold, only one option for coffee. I feel like if you spend this much money on a room you should have a clean room to check in to and better amenities. Parking is difficult, and luckily we got the last space to park in, but it was $22 to use hotel parking. If you book at the hotel that should be complimentary! I will say the concierge was friendly and willing to clean our room for us, had no issue with them or their customer service! Unfortunately, when coming to Pittsburgh again we will not be using this hotel.

Me and my daughter came for a 1 day event at the University and selected this property. It was closer to the U with walking distance. Breakfast had some good variety with fresh waffles that you can make. Only watchout is that covered parking was right across the street with limited space. We were lucky enough to find an open spot late in the evening.

We stayed at this hotel because it was close to UPitt. It’s a lovely hotel that is very convenient to several restaurants and close to the school. My only complaint was the cleanliness of the bathroom. There was hair all over the bathroom floor. I don’t think the housekeeper swept before mopping. It was kind of gross. The bathroom door was also dusty and dirty. The shower curtain liner looked like it had been cut, so it wasn’t long enough to keep the water from getting on the floor. Plus there was hair stuck on it and on the shower walls. The beds were fine though. So that’s a plus.

It has been years since we were in this area of Pittsburgh. Although we had a general idea of where the property was, we turned left one block before we should have. When we came around the block a second time, we asked an attendant at another motel across the street for assistance. He was able to provide us with directions. The street we turned on was one way. So we left the second place, went up one block, turned right on to the street your property was located, and found your place on the left side. Your property has only been there seven years.
