Stayed for three nights while visiting family and attending a game at PPG Arena. Overall room was clean, comfortable and quiet. Breakfast was included and was outstanding for being a hotel breakfast. Actually better than the eat n park meal we ate. Waterfront location is fantastic for walking, eating, and shopping. We will definitely be staying here every time we visit Pittsburgh.
