Big promises, Poor execution

Unfortunately our stay was very disappointing. I selected this property because they advertise a free hot breakfast in the morning and a pool. Both were closed during our stay. Also the fitness center is closed. When i went to the elevator bank it smells so strongly of curry it gave me a headache and wafted through the hallways. Upon entering the room it was musty. The furniture had big stained spots all over each piece. (Couch,Ottoman,Chair) Old tv and mostly static. The bathroom was clean as possible considering the wallpaper is bubbling and coming off the wall. Many cosmetic defects in showee area as well as water damage. All in all a disappointing stay. Ill never stay at this location again. If looking for a great downtown hotel checkout Hampton Inn by Heinz Museum its great! **Tried to upload photos wouldnt let me**

Worst hotel in Pittsburgh!

The entire stay was absolutely terrible! The front desk staff couldn’t even muster a smile, was very crude and disrespectful, and made us feel like we were an inconvenience. The entire hotel was under construction and most of the facilities that drew us to the hotel were not available and we didn’t find out until we checked in. The entire lobby and our hall just off of the lobby smelled like pot. When we brought it to the attention of the front desk she just came through with air freshener and sprayed it around. Not only did it not eliminate the smell, but it made for an even more putrid odor when mixed with the pot smell. Our room end up smelling like the lobby and hall simply because we opened our door to enter our room. The room itself was filthy too. The floors were not swept, there was garbage in our garage can, and the bathroom wasn’t scrubbed. I saw hair in the bottom of the tub and, when I used my hand to try and wipe it out, I ended up with a white powdery substance that was very gritty covering my entire palm. The clear shelves that held our bath towels had splotches of a white dried on substance. The smoke detectors were removed from the bathroom and bedroom and the silver brackets and holes remained where they once were. The hotel was under construction and the men who were working there would prop the security doors open so they could continue to go in and out without having to bother with a key card which defeats the purpose of a security door to begin with.

Pretty with remodeling challenges

The 6th floor was recently remolded, so very attractive. Unfortunately, the walkthru following construction doesn't appear complete: I couldn't draw curtains over entire window and there's lots of light in the area; the refrigerator rocked when opened; the shower took quite some time to become warm; the staff when checking out were not nearly as friendly as the women when checking in.

So there are a few things terribly wrong.#1 they are under renovations and wasn't aware. They charge $22 just to park in their own parking lot! #2 they charge you $100 for incidentals and since I used my Venmo card I won't get my money back for 30-60!!! #3 due to the renovation's there's NO pool, NO exercise room and the breakfast room is now crammed into the lobby. I will NEVER stay here or another holiday inn.

1 night stay for concert

Was in town for an event at the P&G arena. Great location for event as we walked the bridge to and from. Only issue was lots of road work around hotel which made getting into the hotel parking a challenge.
