The bed was the best part. The property is a little rundown but works if you are going to UPitt. Found it a little pricey for what they offer. More than 300 per night.

ShyAnne, at the front desk, was very professional and friendly. She made me feel welcome. Of all the amenities provided, I really appreciated having a nightlight in the bathroom. The only thing you are missing is a magnifying mirror, with retractable swinging arm.
