Review:
Everything of the hotel was good - 5 minutes driving to nearby stores - super market nearby
Breakfast in lobby was nice especially for kids - rooms equipped with a refrigerator, oven and stove - high end hotel - pets were welcome - enjoyable stay
The suites were completely cleaned after dogs stay in the room - full hot breakfast with many choices - snacks available every Tuesday to Thursday evening in the lounge area
A large gas grill at out-door courtyard area with beautiful view of the surroundings
The staff responded quickly - the hotel was around 15 minutes to downtown Pittsburg area
A mostly residential area with high rise apartment buildings - a home away from home
Only 1 Italian restaurant across the street - numerous restaurants in walking distance or short drive - plenty of local campus nearby - bathroom lighting was not bright enough
No separate reading light over the headboard - the mattresses were covered with plastic to avoid bedbugs - the management was very understanding - the hotel located on a busy street
It was definitely an urban residence Inn - 2 elevators in the property, one from the street to lobby, the other from the lobby to the room - "home town" friendliness - a unique hotel
Higher floor with nicer view - open windows - accommodating shuttle drivers - the pool with glass roof was a nice size for kids, it was not crowded
