Top Carnegie Mellon University Hotel Reviews

Hyatt House Pittsburgh/Bloomfield/Shadyside

8/10 Good

"I liked that there was a parking lot behind the hotel. They charged for parking, but it was nice to have. It was also nice to have plenty of seating for breakfast. We always found a table. Breakfast was ok. Just ok. Somewhat limited and consistent (same breakfast and we were there 3 mornings): scrambled eggs, sausage, potatoes, toast, oatmeal (2 mornings), cut fruit, vanilla yogurt, orange juice, coffee. One morning there were waffles and they recycled the cut fruit from previous days. No pastries or gluten free options in terms of bread, no fresh fruit (like an apple or a banana). Plain and/or greek yogurt would have been appreciated. The staff was super nice and helpful. The bathroom could have used a good scrub as the baseboards were pretty dirty."
