I love the valet parking was right there that was only $30 and I didn’t have to worry about parking on the side of the road my rental vehicle. The hotel staff was amazing. The hotel was nicely decorated for the holiday season.

Great location for UPitt events
Great location for our concert at the UPitt Petersen Event Center. Cars have to use valet parking due to being in the the city- but the valets were great. Just beware of that extra cost.

It was average, but very dated. The bathroom door opened into the entryway and so knocked into the room door. The closet was by the window. very odd configuration. The staff were extremely nice.

The room we were given had a strange smell and the bathtub drain was running slow. We complained multiple times to the front desk about these issues, and while they said the sent someone to look into it, it made no difference. It appears their vents may need cleaning and their carpets have a moldy smell emanating from them.
