Less than friendly check in. First floor smelled musty, When we opened the door to our room, it smelled like a locker room.. Bed was uncomfortable. They are in the middle of renovations but the carpet in the hallway was pulled up and someone could easily trip over it. And the fire alarm went off @ 4:00 AM and again... More

First, it took twenty mintues of standing in line to check in at 9:30--just about the last thing I wanted after a day of business travel. Then somehow, I got booked into a smoking room for a week, eventhough I requested a non-smoking room. The rest of the rooms were supposedly full, despite the fact I saw another woman get... More

I stayed with clients in this hotel. The location is great for visiting Carson Street (2 min walking distance!). My room was huge and clean. Parking is behing the building. Staff was very attentive and friendly. Very good place.

Traveled here for bachelorette party with 4 friends. Hotel was perfect location for carson street fun. Shuttle was nice, easy to access, however they stop at 1030pm. Indoor pool was freezing and disappointingly, so was the jacuzzi. Lots of construction going on. Front desk very friendly and helpful. Housekeeping was great as well.

So I was really stoked about staying so close to the South Side and all the bars/restaurants it has to offer. The location of the hotel was fantastic. Pricey, but that's what you pay, I suppose. The room was decent, but in addition to the high cost of the room, they charged $14 per night for parking. Even in an... More

I stayed this past weekend. Had a smoking room cause nothing else was available. It was clean though. Great breakfast after a night out.

Check in was cheery, quick, and I must say 4+ star quality. It was a wonderful start. We get to the room, which was a double queen with a pull out, and it is a nice size. Unfortunately all air is off, so a bit swampy, but we turn on the nice, quiet air to get things rolling. And I... More

I think most people know what to expect from a Holiday Inn Express, but this one really impressed me. On one hand it's 'just' a fairly standard, but good, hotel. On the other, it's full of friendly staff, who really do help you get the most out of your stay. If you want a hassle free, good quality, nice, pleasant... More

This property, located in the vibrant Southaide area of Pittsburgh, is a viable alternative to the overpriced Holiday Inn-University Center. While not as convenient to Pitt, CMU, or UPMC, this hotel is only 10 min away. Lower prices, better rooms/entities, more responsive management combine to make this choice a better value for most occasions.
