When we arrived at 4 PM room was not ready. Staff was not able to give us time that room would be ready and was very nasty. Made a million excuses about why it was our fault and our problem. Check in was after 3 PM. There was nothing they were willing to do to make up for the inconvenience of sitting and waiting for our room after a long day of travel. The level of unkindness was so unexpected!!! After this initial bump the stay was nice! Room was comfortable and clean.

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.
