Very high cost to park in garage which we weren't told about or you had to park in the street and walk and being handicapped was very difficult, also, tall vehicles do not fit in garage which costs 40 a night to park in. The Starbucks on site we were told wasn't actually a Starbucks and we paid 40 dollars for 2 breakfast sandwiches and 2 small coffees. No sign in room for if you need amenities or forgot something. No tub in the room which was not a handicap room. Bo microwave and the teeny fridge had no freezer.

Do not use Hotels.com or any other Expedia owned
Hotels.com canceled this trip at the last minute. 12:50 am on the day of the trip and Alex from Central America stated the hotel was under renovations. Seriously- Alex from Central America - you just found out at 12:50 am on the day of the reservation. Alert from Central America also claimed he did not have a Supervisor and that Expedia which owns Hotels.com did not have a physical address to send a compliant. Do not use Expedia or any of the company’s they own. There is zero customer service. They outsource from the US their customer service and they have apparently approved their employees to at best embellish what is truly going on.

As soon as we walked in, it smelled so nice! The check in and restaurant area was clean and welcoming. The rooms were clean and bed was so comfortable. The pullout couch was easy to set up. Only downside is that there was no refrigerator in the room. We went to the pool, which was clean and well kept. Parking was simply and free. All in all, it was a great experience!

Having the elevator go to the "garage" level but not letting guests park in it is misleading. The restaurant didn't have enough people working and it wasn't open late enough especially on a weekend. The pool was really cold. The lights in the bathroom were blindingly bright; like flood lights.

This is a convenient location to all of things in Oakland and U of Pittsburgh. I noted when I walked in that there was a perfume smell that was being vented into the lobby and hallways. This was not pleasant. We also had someone smoking marijuana on our floor. This was reported to staff.
