Great location to visit both campuses.

Wonderful stay!

Having the room cleaned only after 3 days wasn't great, and we were kept awake one of the nights with a malfunctioning door alarm that would go off every 3 minutes at a level of 90-100 decibels. The staff was friendly and the property was generally clean, although some areas were pretty dated. Parking was also tight - we got the last available spot on 2 nights.

There is a $25 early check in fee.

Air conditioner was horribly loud and the staffs were less than helpful.

Nice

walking distance to Pitt and Carnegie Mellon

It is safe and walkable around the area for dining. Especially closed to campus!

We were dropping my daughter off for freshman year at CMU. Great location for that. Hotel is within walking distance of campus. The only problem we had was that I had booked a room for 5. Listing said 2 queen beds, I assumed there would be a sofa bed or cot available. NO sofa bed in the room and cots had already been claimed by other guests. Front desk said we could get an additional room (at our expense of course) or get some extra bedding for one of our family to sleep on the floor. We went with the extra bedding and my 13 yo son slept under the desk for one night. The rest of our stay our daughter had moved in to the dorm. Not ideal but we made it work.

Room was ok - musty when we walked in - beds were comfortable - for the price paid, at least a frig and microwave should be included.. Very convenient to Pitt campus.. Very walkable campus...

It is ok property but they have to change the speed of internet and the way how they operate the key access to each doors and elevators. A lot of time the key does not work so we cannot use the elevator and entrances from the parking lot. We have them fix the key couple times and worked once right after but if you want to use it again it shows the error again so it was very frustrated.

The staff was very friendly and helpful.The room was small and not very clean.There was also a smell coming from the air conditioner.

The hotel itself was clean and quiet. We brought along perishable food. Our rooms fridge was missing. I found my contract which said fridge available upon request. I was told some were broken and there were no extras. I $$$ on the perishable food I had. In addition, I asked about continental breakfast. I was told no. So I found my reservation which said free breakfast buffet. The man at the desk quietly snuck me two breakfast tickets. Seems like they are cutting corners at the customers expense. I can’t remember being in a hotel without a refrigerator and I travel often.

Staff at counter was very helpful

Close to the university

Location is excellent and staff very friendly

As always, if you have specific requests, we will do our best to honor those. Additionally, I regret that noise interrupted your comfort. This was an extraordinary experience not indicative of our norm, so we hope to host you again for a flawless stay. We appreciate your feedback and your patronage.Sincerely,Coleman HughesGeneral Manager
