Hotels

Pittsburgh PA

First off, let me begin by saying that the Crowne Plaza Airport hotel near Pittsburgh,. Pennsylvania has a great bar tender. It was really slow the night we went in, and she was about to close, but she stayed open because I told her I was bringing two more people down. How’s that for service?

Second of all, this hotel is CLOSE to the airport, but not completely on top of it like some other hotels might be. There’s a shuttle that leaves every thirty minutes and takes you there, so no worries.

The room was plenty big, and I had a great window that looked out upon the PIttsburgh (well, Corapolis) skyline. A huge thunderstorm came in and lightning hit the three tall buildings in front of me aobut thirty times, no exaggeration. So that was exciting!

There’s a little Italian restaurant in this hotel which I didn’t have the chance to try, but it always had people in it. If you have a thing for pilots, definitely stay here, the place was crawling with them.

Nothing fancy here. Just a solid hotel close to the airport with very friendly bar tenders. The pool table is fun too.
