I would have given this hotel 5 stars if not for the tile at the bottom of the shower. Was coming apart and needed updating. The size of the tv could be bigger. Otherwise I liked the hotel. Room was very spacious. Water pressure was great. Clean and beautifully decorated hotel

Very cute hotel with friendly staff. It was December so was decorated for Christmas in the lobby. Restaurant inside hotel was good as well. Bed was average and pillows were not the greatest but overall the hotel was excellent for the price and very close to traveling to the Steelers stadium, the ballet, the incline, and more.

The room offered was terrific, large room with great living room and terrific bathroom. The room was also very clean with a great bed. The only issue is that it was located right by highway that was rather noisy from the traffic in the evening and in the morning.
