Joinery Hotel Pittsburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton
The room was very clean and the bed was comfy. It was small and minimalistic but for one night it does the trick. The roof top area was also very nice at night.

Each staff member was very responsive and caring. Asked if I needed help with anything or directions. They even offered to find my glasses I left in the car that was valet parked. Would definitely recommend.
