TRYP by Wyndham Pittsburgh/Lawrenceville

8/10 Good

"Didn’t like I had to pay for valet parking when My vehicle was parked at the curb over night. I could have done that easily. Maybe it’s necessary when it’s busy but not when I was there."

The Maverick by Kasa

4/10 Poor

"The late check in process is a nightmare for anyone over 60!!! I called the hotel in the afternoon & let them know that I would be checking in late and they said they would send me a link for a pre-arrival check list. I never received it. Then I arrived after 11 pm absolutely exhausted. I tried using My confirmation booking number & it said my booking could not be found. I then called the support phone number & it took over 25 minutes bc she get sending me codes that didn't work. She attempted to send my phone links that never appeared. Then we moved onto email links. Finally she was able to help me bypass the original method so I got checked in. I was completely exasperated!!! This is so incredibly difficult & frustrating when you are 60 years old and have to do this after spending hours that day traveling & going to a concert. Not to mention the damage deposit that is non refundable & this was mentioned no where on Expedia! Now the building was clean & very well maintained and the bed itself was super comfortable (although 60 year old + usually don't like sleeping that low) The room amenities were appreciated. The check out process went smoothly. I think you need to well advertise that these types of hotels are not ideal for older travelers!!! I wish I knew ahead of time bc I would have made it a priority to check in early with an actual person before the concert. The person on the phone I spoke to could have warned me but didn't ."

Hotel Indigo Pittsburgh East Liberty by IHG

4/10 Poor

"stay at this hotel was disappointing despite the staff’s attempts to assist. Shortly after checking into my first room, I encountered a roach. The front desk responded quickly and moved us to another room, but the replacement room was missing several amenities, including a bench and lamp, and the refrigerator hadn’t been turned on prior to our arrival. We were provided dinner and breakfast vouchers, which were appreciated, but did not fully make up for the issues we experienced. Additional concerns included the lack of ice and vending machines on the 6th floor, requiring a trip to the 5th floor, and a bucket placed in the hallway to catch water leaking from the ceiling. The dining experience was also underwhelming. The dinner menu was very limited, and the chef forgot our breakfast order entirely, resulting in nearly an hour of waiting. While the staff was polite and tried to help, the overall condition and management of the property need significant improvement."

SpringHill Suites by Marriott Pittsburgh Bakery Square

4/10 Poor

"My room was never cleaned the whole time I stayed there from 05/14 to 05/18. The bed was never changed. It was uncomfortable and quite disturbing. I asked one of the hotel staff up front why my room wasn't cleaned and I was told they only did every other day. The hotel staff was usually helpful and nice but some were not. I will think twice about staying there again. Dr. Stephen Parks"
