    The aesthetics of the rooms aren't quite up to the standard of a modern hotel and modern bathrooms particularly. The space was good and the bedding:comfort was on par and appreciated.

    There are a few, individually small but frustrating things that fell short. It may not have generated enough profit but the lobby bar was great to meet people either early or late evening. The Starbucks is fine and Im sure they pay a great rent but there's certainly nothing unique or inspired about Starbucks and given the choice, which we took we walked blocks to go to a unique, privately owned cafe. On the house keeping end, its was late in the afternoon before our room was made up each day - 5pm ish. One of the bath towels had a wad of chewing gum stuck in it after going through laundry. when we checked in there were two boxes of M&M's on the mini bar - one had been opened and had just a few pieces of candy left. I don't know what's up with the bedding but the sheets are slippery and not comfortable to sleep in, what could be called a comforter definitely was not, and the plastic liner under the sheets made the whole experience pretty unpleasant. Getting charged $15/day on top of being one of the most expensive rooms in Pittsburgh is just dumb and insulting! First - you have to know that everyone who stays with you has some kind of technology with them - bake that cost in and don't make it feel like its an exception or a premium to what you market as best in class travel accommodations. Kinda feels like a road side motel when you get dinged for "extra" that's really expected.

    It's a beautiful building that is holding up well. The staff is ambitious and accommodating - front desk, valet etc. Its a great downtown location.

    There was no fridge and you need to pay for internet. Though it is free once you sign up for a hotel membership.

    The hotel was very good. Spacious room with a beautiful view. Very good hotel gym with a nice view and a lot of machines. They also had spa and wellness section. This hotel has a Starbucks downstairs so it was easy to get your morning going with a coffee. I love the LeLabo products they have in the bathroom.

    Lack of racial diversity in clientele and lack of thorough cleaning of guest rooms in the the midst of a high traffic period.

    It was a luxury hotel. The food was great, it was also beautifully decorated. The service was great, and the few hiccups we experienced were handled excellently by the staff (shoutout to Jax and Niki)!

    We would not go back here again with so many other high end options in the area. The rooms are a little worn out. Tears in wallpaper etc. the lobby is beautiful! The staff was super friendly so I don’t want to take anything away from that. But there are no refrigerators!!!! In an upscale hotel this shocked me. The restaurant is really just a bar. So we found this hotel to be very non kid friendly. You also have to pay for internet.

    Love the location. Especially during the holidays.

    The hotel has kind staff, but it is extremely overpriced relative to the value provided.

    This was an overpaid stay given the lack of usual amenities provided (i.e., no refrigerator, no bottled water, etc.). The parking was $47 (plus a $20 tip, so $67 total!) despite being able to get a $20 spot (I work downtown so I know they are right near the hotel). We requested a refrigerator to keep our breast milk in but it took over an hour to bring to the room, which required us to throw a portion of the milk out. I also found it strange that I had to proactively call to get a wifi password rather than it being written on our room key holder. I went to logon and it stated a $20 fee. I was lucky I called the front desk otherwise I would have to spend more money! We spent around $1,000 all in with our dinner at Fl 2, spa service and the stay, but I felt like our value was around half of that. Staff was very kind and the place is clean, but this is way overpriced when compared to places like Hotel Monaco that have a better quality of room at a similar price point.

    Kind staff and clean.

    It takes forever to get the lift I expected as a premium hotel they might be able to arrange transport , but they couldn’t. Maybe this is the norm in Pittsburgh, so I don’t want to single them out.

    The receptionist was incredibly helpful.

    The only issue was your card reader wasn't working right. It kept declining our cards felt embarrassed. I called my bank when I got to room and they assured me it was on the motels end. Besides that a wonderful experience.

    Location. Went to PNC PARK for concert. Lobby was gorgeous. Your staff was very friendly. I liked having direct access to parking garage and paying your ticket in lobby before you left. Felt very safe for my family. Thank you so much. The view was amazing just as I was promised when booking. If I'm ever in town again I will be back.
