Old but maintained motel, set back from highway and other businesses, sits up on a ridge. Convenient location- just 15 minutes from downtown Pittsburgh.
Exterior is older, nothing special, even looks sorta vacant. Careful of the drainage grates in parking areas (recessed, like a big pothole).
The manager is attentive and available with the ring of a bell at the counter even for a later check-in or early checkout. Simple breakfast foods were ready for breakfast at 6 a.m., including coffee, muffins, bananas, bread/toast, etc.
Our room was older, somewhat worn / tired, but very clean. Lighting was dim. Blackout curtain. Faint odor from sanitizing products, not offensive but if you are sensitive to smells you will notice it. Plenty of surface areas to set your bags up off the floor. Fridge and microwave. Very quiet with exception that you will hear other guests coming and going in the parking area, so this is dependent in how considerate they are. Beds are “full” size (slightly smaller than queens), but fairly comfortable. Good pillows.
I would stay here again with my husband, but not alone. While I did not feel unsafe, it is somewhat isolated and being a budget motel, gets a mixed crowd of guests.
