Pros:

The location was wonderful, you could walk to so many places.

Cons:

The hotel itself could use some repair/updating. The blackout shade on our window was missing, the tub did not drain, etc. Small things make all the difference.

Pros:

Breakfast is very good.

Cons:

People in the neighboring room partied and talked very loudly past midnight, and we had to call the front desk to make them quiet. It didn't work.

Pros:

The room was nice and clean. There was no noise which was nice.

Cons:

The parking situation was ridiculous. You have to check in and get your room key before you can access the parking lot. Where exactly are you supposed to park your vehicle while checking in? Also, the parking area isn't marked well so it took us a long time to figure out where to park and then you are charged $28 a night to park your vehicle! We have never been to Pittsburgh before, so we had no idea. Also, none of the gym equipment (treadmill, elliptical etc) worked. It was an extremely small gym as well. There was only one working elevator which made travelling back and forth very time-consuming waiting for one elevator.
