Stayed one night for pleasure. Property abuts a busy road near the highway. Would recommend NOT staying on that side of hotel as it is noisy all night long. Shower drain was 95% clogged. I won't be staying here again.

I would have given this hotel 5 stars if not for the tile at the bottom of the shower. Was coming apart and needed updating. The size of the tv could be bigger. Otherwise I liked the hotel. Room was very spacious. Water pressure was great. Clean and beautifully decorated hotel

The room was in good condition but the sheets had orange markings on them, hand towels also had orange markings. The hotel parking policy is not the best. I purposely didn’t select parking on booking but when I got to the hotel I was told if I book a hotel thru Expedia I automatically had to pay 22$ a night. But the clerk at the hotel Indigo ask me what type of parking did I I want. I selected the 10$ parking. But this was my issue with the hotel!

Very cute hotel with friendly staff. It was December so was decorated for Christmas in the lobby. Restaurant inside hotel was good as well. Bed was average and pillows were not the greatest but overall the hotel was excellent for the price and very close to traveling to the Steelers stadium, the ballet, the incline, and more.
