Staff at front desk could be friendlier, a test fire alarm went off twice on si day and we had to pack and leave immediately, when we got to the lobby they said it was just a test, we could’ve slept longer or shower before checking out

Comfort Inn & Suites Pittsburgh-Northshore
Safe. Easy to find and park. Awesome front desk lady! Breakfast was adequate. But.... Smelled of smoke in our non smoking room. Also pillows are extremely small and the ottoman is not cushioned like one would think.
