If you are like me, you are probably dumbfounded by all the high hotel prices and extra fees in Pittsburgh. After all, this is Pittsburgh and not NYC or DC.
In terms of value, Shadyside Inn Suites hits the spot. This place would be great for families needing housing for graduation weekend because of the spaciousness and convenience. You can tell that the staff cares about your stay. You get a breakfast goodie bag, a check up call and the like. But why the 3 stars?
I stayed at the unit on Negley and the building is faulty by design. The walls were thin that I could hear people walking around and talking. The furniture and TV was outdated (the TV turned on by itself at night).
The staff is 4 star, but the suite was a glorified college dorm suite.
