I have no reason to take off a star here. The people are really nice. The place is extremely clean and the facility is in good shape, it feels less than a year old. The design is low cost but has some style, like Hotel by Ikea. Location was great for me (right by the Three Rivers running trails and near the funky South Side). If you were going to be downtown a lot, maybe you would go elsewhere. But...I liked this a lot, it's my go-to Pittsburg hotel.
