This outdoor park includes a garden walk, playground, courtyard, a Pickleball court and a performance stage . It is now the new home for the Three Rivers Arts Festival held annually in June. Very cool park. A relaxing atmosphere to visit while downtown. The playground is a bright and colorful area with play equipment for the kids. The grounds and paths are clean and well maintained. The covered stage has a nice size lawn seating area. It's nice to have a park in the middle of the hustle and bustle of life in the city. Great spot to take a walk around, have a picnic or take the kids for a fun time while in town. Parking garages are nearby and a short walk down the river is Point State Park. Definitely a nice upgrade for downtown Pittsburgh in the center of the Cultural District. If there's an event on the calendar you're interested in it's definitely worth checking it out!!

This is such a great addition to the Cultural District area!…read moreIt is truly a space with something for everyone. There is a playground area that families can enjoy. Plenty of seating so you can sit and read, enjoy people watching or catch one of the performances. There is even an area for pickleball! They host a variety of activities here including the Arts Festival, family fun days and movie nights. The space is well maintained and there is a security presence that makes you feel safe without being imposing. It is a wonderful addition to the area and something I recommend to anyone visiting the Cultural District!

The guest rooms were very clean beautifully appointed with period furniture and a super comfy bed. Breakfast was a multicourse daily feast prepared by Dennis (best eggs!) and Rosemary from locally sourced foods and fresh from the oven muffins baked daily by Rosemary. Dennis and Rosemary join us daily for breakfast where we had lively conversation on an arrange of topics, best being Dennis's extensive knowledge of historic Ambridge and the Harmony Society. The best part of our stay was meeting Dennis and Rosemary. They have created an environment that made us feel as if we were staying with family.

It was pouring raining when we arrived and we were offer the option to check our umbrellas upon arrival which was a nice added touch to our warm welcome! Made a reservation for our monthly gal hang, which was also our holiday gift exchange. Our table was ready and waiting for us. We were able to order a round of drinks to enjoy before ordering, and after we got our checks we all decided we wanted another round of bevs to open gifts and the waitress was so kind and accommodating. We got a wide variety off the brunch menu and everything was so well prepared. I got the brisket hash and pro tip - add a side of their bacon jam!!, I also ordered the egg over medium vs over easy. To note - both friends who ordered the egg or crab Benedict added sides of potato hash, a potential suggestion that these dishes have potatoes. The Elderflower cocktail was a crowd favorite beverage. I dined here once before. The experience was consistent and overall an enjoyable time!

I had never heard of this restaurant but our usual brunch group insisted we try it. So glad we did!…read more Excellent service and beautiful restaurant. I got 2 drinks - an Elderflower and a Mexican Chocolate Bourbon. Both yummy although the bourbon was STRONG. My entree was the brisket hash which I got without eggs. The brisket was cooked perfectly and cut into tiny pieces to better mix with the potatoes, I really loved it. And I got a side of grits - amazing and perfectly done! We will be back!

Rooms come as either singles or 1 bedrooms. I chose a basement suite and it turned out to be much more than I could have expected. A large comfy bed, flat screen HDTV with Premium sports and movie channels, a kitchen with all the amenities from Oven to Spatula, a full bathroom, and a small dining /work table. The suites are housed in a turn of the century victorian house converted into apartments and conveniently located off bus lines to Downtown. The best thing is supermarkets and bars are nearby, all which Robert gives you maps and descriptions of. Got Laundry? no problem, the suites have their own laundry room and each room has an ironing board, laundry basket, and iron. It's home away from home.

John Marshall Catering knocked it out of the park for my daughter's High School Graduation party!…read moreThey were so helpful and responsive leading up to the event, making menu planning easy. Chef Steve grilled hot dogs and burgers onsite, and I received so many compliments on the food from guests. Casey, Angela, and Brittney were friendly, attentive, and on top of everything all day -- replenishing food, clearing plates, even keeping the cookie and cupcake table stocked. They took so much stress out of having a large party at my home. They handled it all so I could actually relax and enjoy the party. I cannot recommend them enough!!!

I got to the hotel around 10AM to check in and the room wasn't ready, which wasn't a problem. I…read morejust worked from the lobby for a couple of hours and then asked if the room was ready, which is was. The lady checking me in was friendly, but didn't seem to care about status as she made no mention of it, which isn't a problem, but she also told me it would cost $50 to check in early. I let her know I was Titanium and she said it didn't matter, they charge this no matter status. I've heard that there was a charge for early check in at other Marriott locations, but not if you're Platinum or higher. Anyway, they upgraded me using suite night rewards, which it's rare for me to be able to actually get, so this was nice to have. The corner king suite I got was really nice looking with beautiful views of the stadium and river. The bathroom is huge too, plenty of room throughout the entire room to spread out! The only issues with the room were they give those small, half size bottles of water in the room and there wasn't too many USB/AC outlets within the room; in fact, the desk area only had a single wall outlet available and nothing else - not very tech-friendly room. The bathroom I had offered a separate shower which was huge, a water closet, and a large soaker tub. Shower worked great and they offered nicely scented hand soap, gel, and shampoo. An issue I experienced in the bathroom was being in the water closet too long and the lights shutting off... in my situation, since I was alone, I never closed the door when in their, but if I was with someone else, the room light sensor is in the main bathroom, near the entry to the bathroom with no switches at all in the water closet. So if the door was closed, you'd be in a dark room in a few minutes when the light decide to shut off - this is a crazy thing for them to overlook when designing the room! On the 14th floor they have their concierge level with lounge. The lounge was only open in the mornings, I think from 6:30AM to around 10AM and they only do breakfast service, but it is a full breakfast with decent looking scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, scones/muffins, breads, juices, fruits, and coffee. I went each morning and got coffee and yogurt. The attendant was friendly. A few times each evening they do some really silly, odd, and annoyingly loud music and light show in the lobby area. They do a light show and crank up the music and it's all choregraphed. The quality of the audio system is terrible, so this light show sounds like it's coming from a 1980's boombox - silly. It was annoying to our group each time and from looking around at others who were also there for business, they weren't impressed either. The common areas of the hotel are grand and gorgeous! The white marble everywhere is stunning too. Definitely a beautiful and historic property! Valet was very friendly, all of them were! They greeted us each time we came through, as well as opened the door to the hotel. The staff was very friendly, the place is beautiful. I'd definitely return here... Nice place to stay!

I repeat, we were 2 couples sharing a room, and there was no surety of privacy in the bathroom. our front door... neither closed, nor opened. hotel doors usually close completely on their own. not this one! you had to force it shut every time, and then... sometimes it wouldn't open from the outside. 2 of us (ladies) had to ask a male stranger staying across from us to help force our door open; the other 2 (men) were fortunate to only struggle when someone was on the inside and able to open it from the inside. there was a hole in the wall where the fire sprinkler was. and the wedding food was easily the worst we've ever had - dry as sand, not a pinch of seasoning (not even salt). hilariously bad. $400 (or so) per night?! laughable.
