We booked a room with 2 double beds and our room only had 1 double bed. The condition of the room was horrible with cracked tiles, dirty walls, mold around baseboards and shower. There was visible dirt on the floor especially around the bed. The duvet in between the sheets was filthy and stained. For the price of the room I would have expected better condition.

The first room was dirty and when we pulled back the bedsheets there was a note tucked between the sheets. When i asked for a different room I was upgraded free but the 2 men at reception went utterly silent throughout the transaction. Satisfied, but weird. The new room was dusty with cobwebs but nothing was in the bed so i just stayed there. Dead moths on the window sill in the bathroom. A dead bug beside the safe. My room key de-magnatised 3 times in 3 nights. We were able to take public transit to the football game so my partner was happy. Everyone other than the 2 men working the first night was very friendly.

The location was ideal for a game at Highmark Stadium. It seemed “clean” until I found poop on the drain in The shower. That was so disgusting.

Going to go through everything because before you hook you should know. The main office is not connected to the actual rooms, not a problem but just fyi. The staff was very nice and apologetic towards our stay but unfortunately that did not help. We arrived late at night around 1230. Got checked in and walked to our room. The outside is very weathered and is NOT as kept up as the pictures show. We enter the room and the light is on, the smoke detector is beeping because the battery had been removed, the room itself was very weathered and needs a remodel. The toilet had been used and not flushed (#2). I called up the front desk and got a new room. The new room was “cleaner” there was some brown stuff in the sink but we just dealt with it. We originally had two nights booked but checked out the next day. If you don’t care about cleanliness or safety standards, this hotel will work for you.

Front desk staff were great, but our room smelled very strongly of wet dog and cigarettes. Luckily we were only there for a quick stop overnight for the bills game. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone sensitive to scents.
