Stay Alfred at The Venue

Amazing view, easy and clean service

Fantastic view of the rivers and PNC Park, which was by far the best selling point. We were disappointed with the condition of the unit. The bathroom and the floors were quite filthy - almost as if the place wasn't cleaned prior to our arrival. Would we stay there again? Not unless they can guarantee they will thoroughly clean the unit before we arrive.

Amazing views, Great price for the location, Nice linens. Nice to have Kitchen, and washer / dryer. The floors could be cleaned better. and the bathroom smelled a bit mildew. Note that their is a Booking fee of an additional $100 that would have a bigger impact on the value for short stays of 1-2 days.

I booked this location because it was close to PNC Park, the the start of the Pittsburgh Marathon. The location is basically the only good thing I can say about this place. Like other reviews, there was a large portion of blinds missing from the living room area, which made it uncomfortable to spend time since people can see in. The blinds in the bedroom didn’t close completely and unfortunately, the gap that let light in hits right on the pillows of the bed. There were a handful of lights out. However, the most alarming thing was that all of the smoke detectors were removed from the unit. I tried reaching to to Stay Alfred and never heard back. Do not stay here.

Apartment building was nice. Key retrieval thing was super easy (theres a package drop too so don't get them confused) Room was kind of dusty, floors dirty and had a weird fishy odor we couldn't get rid of and just got use too. However everything else seemed clean (bathroom, towels, bed, couch, etc) and the furniture was modern updated. About the cleanliness you'd expect from a mid tier hotel minus weird smell. View was of Highmark building and was enjoyable. Had no problems using the blinds in the bedroom. Room was a very nice size though and comfortable for us. I'd recommend and hope the other rooms are missing the smell. Also the area is GREAT if you are there to see downtown Pittsburgh. Almost everything is walking distance if not a short drive, uber, lyft, bus.
