8.8/10 Excellent! (1,002 reviews)
Everyone was very friendly, we loved our first visit to Pittsburgh. I'm going to give our review 5 stars but the only thing I question was 2 out of the 3 nights we stayed our room wasn't cleaned. Not sure if that's normal because we had slept in and left around noon. But in any case it was a fun time.
