Wyndham Grand Pittsburgh Downtown
The room was super clean and spacious. However, you could hear the nieghbors and any outside noise for the hallway. We didn't get breakfrast but we did enjoy a drink at the bar. It was so nice and the bartender was this sweet lady who carried a nice convo. Staff always so welcoming and helpful.
