It is one of the older hotels in Pittsburgh so the rooms do reflect this as they are a bit dated...the room was very clean and generally well maintained...but appear a bit aged. Service at check in and check out was excellent. ..."

"First, I’ll say we had a great time. The kids loved the pool area and the location was close to all the caves and parks. On the not so great side, based on the price of this home it is in severe need of updating and general maintenance. It worked fine for us but really needs some work."
