Pittsburgh Travel Forum

Will be in Pitts. end April this year and am lookin for budget accomodation near the University of Pittsburgh. Ideally somethin comfertable and not so expensive. Any suggesstions whatsoever will be greatly appreciated. Thankz. :)

I've never stayed around Pitt, but check out Priceline.com. My last few visits in Pittsburgh I was able to get rooms for around $60 a night right downtown in some of the city's best hotels (these rooms normally start around $120 to $150 a night).

If you use the Priceline bidding feature you can narrow the area down to Oakland (they call it "University Center"), and bid based on the hotels' star ratings.

I have used Priceline in various cities over the past 2-3 years for about 25 different hotel stays and have never been disappointed with the quality of hotel for the money I paid. Just remember you must commit to the hotel before your bid is accepted, and if accepted you can not cancel. If you need flexibility, do not use Priceline!

Thanks dude. Ill definately check this one out. Btw .. dont they have guest houses kinda thing in Pitts?
