The Landing Hotel at Rivers Casino
The front desk staff were very helpful. The room and bathroom were huge and incredibly clean. The free valet parking was so convenient. I wish I would have had a chance to visit the bar, but there was no time!

Hyatt Place Pittsburgh-North Shore
The hotel was very clean and updated. The staff were very nice and efficient. The breakfast was okay for a free breakfast but the eggs seemed like they were powdered and the pancakes were reheated frozen. The room really wowed and the beds were super comfortable.
