Charming hotel in a great location
Pros:

The room was gorgeous, charming and had a lot of character. It's not your cookie-cutter hotel room. Free parking is a huge plus as other hotels in the area charges upwards of $20-$30/day. Location is wonderful too as it is within walking distance of many attractions along the North Shore.

Cons:

Given that the oldness of the property is what gives this place its charm, it does need to be mentioned that if you like modern conveniences, this is not the place for you. The bathroom sink faucet has separate hot and cold spigots. You will not find USB ports for you to charge your phone in the room. The climate control system is a stand-alone unit. There is not an elevator on the property, so you may be going up 2 flights of stairs to get to your room.

Must stay while in Pittsburgh. Close to everything.
Pros:

Beautiful house and convenient location. It was a awesome place to stay and would highly recommend. When we go back to Pittsburgh it will be the 1st place we look to stay at.

Cons:

We stayed during a extreme heat wave. Temperatures were right at 100 degrees and the room got really stuffy and hot. We called the management and they brought us up a portable AC unit which helped immensely. Not a complaint just a heads up. The charm of the house outweighed any inconvenience of the heat for us.

Cute Victorian Inn stuck in the Victorian Age
Pros:

Close to the stadium and look of a Victorian Era mansion. We arrived earlier than expected and the cleaning lady was able to get us in early and suggested where to eat. She was the best thing about our stay.

Cons:

No elevator so you walked up steps that creaked. That was lovely at night. The bathroom is narrow -the toilet was located inches away from the radiator, there was no mirror to look at unless you were 8 feet tall, and the bathtub may have been quaint but an accident waiting to happen. There were no rails to hold onto to except for the actual pipes and you had to climb over the tub to get in. The shower ring hardly covered a child let alone an adult. At night light was everywhere since there were windows above the door and window seat without curtains. Room temperature was questionable at night and the temperature was in the high 80's with high humidity. We checked out the next morning.

Pros:

Estilo e decoração europeia

Cons:

Do fato de não haver funcionários que nos auxiliem e orientem. Entramos em contato apenas com uma que nos ensinou a destravar a porta do quarto por mensagem no check in. Outra deficiência que senti foram as torneiras e banheira. Muito antigas e incômodas.

Our stay was excellent! Gorgeous venue and a great, walkable area.
Pros:

The themed rooms of Italy, the beautiful woodwork, the authentic furniture, the cigar lounge, the delicious food at Rocco's and the courtyard were all beautiful. The onsite parking was an added bonus.

Cons:

The clerestory window above our door needs to have a darkening curtain or be blocked out because the hall light is kept on until very late and it shines right into the bed--it kept us awake.

The courtyard is very nice and inviting-- I think some more perennial and annual flowers/plants would look great and would help to fill out the area.

It would be nice to have access to an ice machine for the guests.

Perfect for those getting out and about
Pros:

I walked everywhere from the Market Square Juneteenth festival to the Mattress Factory campus to a PSO concert at Heinz Hall and The Lion bar. Amazing location! Colombino coffee is right across the street and Wise County Biquits is close by for brunch as well. Coming back to a large sunny room was a fantastic place to rejuvenate.

Cons:

I didnt have issues myself, but guests may have accessibility issues or experience noise from the restaurant if they are right above during dinner hours. Upper floors may not have this issue. For some reason the restaurant left their music on all night on Saturday but luckily at a low volume. I had a slight learning curve getting the knack of the ring curtain in the clawfoot tub but then i got used to it.
