University Center Business hotels in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I had avery good experience at this hotel. IT took a little while to get over the fact that the facilities were not in good shape and the staff is so overworked. When I first arrived, the receptionist told me wait for my valet he will park your car, then wait for my butler he will carry your bags, then he took my car keys, parked the car, came back and carried my bas on the stairs because the elevator is broken. At midnight I called on my cellphone because the room phone was broken and ordered room services and up he came with it. But then the fact that they were so friendly and the homy feeling of the place took over. There are a few things that I'm still not happy about, including the absolute lack of greenery in the garden which is in sink with the lack of maintenance. IT's all just pebbles and a few old bushes. They don't give you much in the bathrooms either. Also in my room the windows were really stuck with paint and impossible to open. But overall the experience was very pleasant because of the very friendly service and excellent food and chatting with the service personnel. Please bring maintenance and some restauration to this mansion.

Too often people write reviews for bad experiences. I am very happy to write this review because of such a positive experience! Very nice hotel from the minute I walked in to the minute I left.

My friend and I visited my daughter at Pitt and enjoyed our stay here. My daughter took advantage of the kitchen and was able to bake cupcakes for a dorm party. Also, we were able to treat her and 3 friends to a home-cooked meal using the nicely-equipped kitchen in our room. The breakfasts were yummy and the bed comfortable. My only minor complaint is it is not easy to walk anywhere from this location since it is built into the side of a hill and relatively narrow street leading up to it. (don't recall if there was a sidewalk) Parking was an extra fee and many of the spaces are near a pole and felt a little cramped. I did like the idea of have a full kitchen and a sitting area while visiting for a long weekend.
