アボード ピッツバーグ - ダウンタウン コンベンション センター

Location nice

I booked this stay expecting the convenience of a hotel. It is far from that. To access the property, you'll need to send them: a photo of your driver's licenses, a selfie with yourself and the driver's license, a screenshot of the Abode charge to your credit card, and a photo of the credit card you used to book. You'll also need to sign a release form and provide details on all the other guests staying at the property. And when I pushed back on this excessive amount of information, I was told it's because it's self check-in. I finally managed to get them to agree to a photo of the credit card with only the last 4 digits, my name and expiration date, something they could ask for from the start. When we arrived at the property, there actually is building security who will check ID. And then you get a 13 page manual of instructions. Don't park on the property, despite what the manual says it was entirely booked when we arrived. Just park across the street, but don't follow their screenshot of Google Maps, that is for pedestrians and the entry they point you to isn't the entry for vehicles. I also go three separate emails reminding me of the check out time and indicating if we overstayed, we'd be charged $50 for every additional 30 mins. And if we lose the keys needed to access the building, it's a $150 replacement fee. The property itself is nice and the location very central, but not worth the hassle of all the hidden rules, unclear instructions and many emails.

excellent place to stay in downtown Pittsburgh

The checkin was a nightmare, the parking was a nightmare,

there a million and one hoops to jump through and you don't know until you've already booked a non-refundable stay. Also the parking is a pain. The listing says parking on site what they don't tell you is that you have to renew it every 6-8 hrs and that sometimes means waking up in the middle of the night on vacation to do it. The venue itself is very classy and clean - but on parking alone I'd never stay there again. It cost me more than the $10/day for parking and was a huge hassle. I had to email them several times and their solution was to give me an extra hour for late checkout. not worth it.

Perfect location if you want to experience downtown Pittsburgh. Comfortable and clean. Within walking distance of The Strip and the Train Stop. The only thing that was disappointing was that the windows weren't clean so we couldn't see outside very well.

The check in process was awful. Nearly an hour. Then we got accused of a loud noise, when we were sleeping and as a wedding was going on. Parking was unclear to us. It was a nice building, but very frustrating.

Great building, but the access and separate rental agreement that you have to sign was unexpected and a drag

Beautiful property, great service and location.

Initially we had some communication issues that led to us not receiving the room access information until the very day we were supposed to arrive. Needless to say, we were unhappy! But hats off to Vanessa at Abode for being patient with us and reassuring us that everything was going to work out. ***The communication issue was apparently between Abode and our bank. Just want to make that clear.*** Eventually we resolved the issues and we were able to access our room easily. Everything was as advertised. The location was extremely convenient for the martial arts tournament we were in town to attend at the convention center, and we fell in love with the historic building. The room was clean and had everything provided as shown. Even though we were next to the train station the noise was not disruptive. We look forward to staying here again!

Location is easy access to market square, the strip and the stadium. The apartment has a washer and dryer and we didn’t bring home any dirty laundry. It also has a full kitchen so if you want to cook you can cook. This is a very safe property. We will return.

Great place, very clean and accommodating and the gym was awesome.

Great stay, nice apartment, couldn’t have asked for much more

Very close to congress center and downtown, good alternative to the expensive downtown hotels.

Wedding was held in the main area during my Saturday night stay which caused some serious noise disturbances. Additionally, if this property was refundable I would have canceled my stay early on due to the check in policy.

The bed mattress could be more comfortable. it was too old and too soft for me personally. other than that, everything was great.

Excellent communication. Apartment was neat and clean. 5 minutes from Duquesne campus.

Airflow in the bedroom is minimal. Otherwise, it's what's advertised

The Pennsylvanian is a beautiful property from the outside. Inside it’s a bit dark and dingy (and smelly), especially the hallways. The apartment was ok. It has the amenities needed (kitchen, bathroom, living room and its laundry). However, the apartment door didn’t close properly without having to prop it up and pushing it hard. For the price paid, I expected a bit more lux. Communication from property managers was good.

I got married downstairs at the Pennsylvanian and this was by far the best place to rent. Absolutely beautiful the front desk was extra friendly and helpful the apartment had everything we needed even for a dinner with the family afterwards.
