Pros:

I liked the close proximity to everything downtown without actually feeling like I was downtown.

Cons:

I did not like that I had to pay $50 for parking when I already paid so much for the room. Not to mention there was nowhere else to park so I had no choice but to pay. I thought that was ridiculous.

Great stay!
Pros:

The staff were terrific. We were there during the snowstorm; some staff had to stay overnight. Despite the circumstances, they were gracious, friendly, and a credit to the hotel and Pittsburgh as a whole.

The hotel Indigo SUCKS, WAY TOO MUCH NOISE,
Pros:

The food was good and reasonably priced. the staff was very personable and and professional.

Cons:

The outside traffic noise was unbearable. We were there two times. The first time and the last time. My wife and I stayed at other hotels over the years, but none as loud and noisy as your place. It was like trying to sleep at the Daytona 500 while the race was being run. The part that we found funny, was the hotel supplies ear plugs, We will never stay or recommend your hotel to anyone we know .

Our stay was comfortable and the restaurant was convenient and very good.
Pros:

Convenient to U Pitt, felt homey, nicely decorated, big room, modern room and bathroom.

Cons:

Next to highway and our room heard spit of traffic noise. Appreciated the ear plugs but there needs to be a white noise machine to block it out.

Pros:

The breakfast was really nice! The staff were friendly, except the breakfast area.

Cons:

We booked a room for 4 people, but somehow the breakfast was only for two people. The two queen type rooms are all on the side of the highway, very noisy, hard to sleep.

Bel établissement très standing.
Pros:

Etablissement récent, très standing et de bon goût.
Chambres spacieuses et confortables. La déco est recherchée, très bel endroit.
Quartier d'Oakland très sympa à 15 mns de marche de l'hôtel : pont à traverser, et grand choix de boutiques et restaurants.
Sympa.

Cons:

Nous étions 4, le PDJ était normalement inclus dans le tarif, mais pour 2 personnes seulement ?
Attente assez longue pour obtenir nos plats; heureusement, nous n'étions pas pressés, donc pas grave.
Les chambres à l'arrière de l'hôtel donnent sur une route passante, un peu bruyant c'est vrai, d'où les boules Quies mis à disposition sur la table de nuit, ce qui nous a un peu "inquiété" à notre arrivée, mais ça ne nous a finalement pas empêché de très bien dormir.
