Pros:

La ubicación es super conveniente y muy facil para desplazarse a cualquier lugar de la ciudad.

Cons:

La piscina parecía un poco sucia. La cortina del baño era de tela, estaba rota y por ello el agua de la ducha se filtra al piso.

Pros:

The concierge staff were exceptionally kind and helpful, always ready to assist with anything we needed. The location was fantastic—conveniently close to multiple bus stops, Carnegie Mellon University, the CMU Museum, and the botanical garden. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and despite visiting during one of the busiest times of the year—graduation week—it remained quiet and peaceful throughout our stay.

Cons:

Unfortunately, housekeeping fell short during our stay. For two guests over five days, basic amenities like lotion, soap, and bottled water were not adequately replenished, and it was often difficult to request extras. While the beds were made daily, the room itself did not seem to receive thorough cleaning.

Additionally, the hotel’s dining options could be improved. Given its potential, it was disappointing not to have a good on-site café or restaurant, and we often found ourselves going to a neighboring hotel for meals and coffee.
