The room was musty and had severe water damage on the walls above bed and ceilings. There was a loud noisy window air conditioner. The size was comfortable but the room and bathrooms weee old. It was clean. There were no upgrades for Expedia VIP gold/silver. They had other rooms they open they could have chosen. However breakfast was great and staff was (Cyndi) was wonderful. location was easy and comfortable, parking was plentiful. No restaurants in area open on Mondays.
I booked my stay primarily because of price and proximity to PNC Park, but oh my goodness it was better than the best hotels I've ever stayed at. No room service, but a hot, homemade breakfast every morningâdeliciously cooked by Cindy, who handles everything at the inn from greeting to cleaning. She even carried my heavy suitcase up to my room. Amazing, personalized service in a serene, lovely mansion. Made my trip a dream!
Fantastic home in an eclectic neighborhood. House is under relatively new ownership and they are still working through a few upgrades/updates, but still very comfortable and quiet. Was modestly worried about parking but that was not a problem for us. The park directly across the street is a plus and the easy walk to Starbucks for 6am coffee was easy enough.
Just a wonderful place to stay! From the beginning, when you walk into the wonderfully furnished mansion with soft music playing, to a comfortable room, to a porch overlooking a commons!
It is easy access to the city, walking distance to the ballpark, and the national aviary is right around the corner!
The highlight of the week were sumptuous breakfasts prepared by our hostess Cyndi, each day a surprise or cooked to order, to be eaten in the lovely dining room or outside on the porch!
Cyndi was responsive to our requests, and it was so nice to have her on site!
Just a pleasure!
Management was inappropriate. The building ownership changed hands and all of the finances from the prior management did not change hands. I looked through past emails to show proof of pricing. She told me she locked the door to our unit so we couldn't get in and she was calling the police on us for not paying after I sat in her office for one hour with my cc on her desk next to her. She accused us of evading her as we were volunteers at the USGA Open tournament and needed to be there at 6am. The first night she didn't give us a key and answered the door in skimpy underwear. There was heavy mold in the ceiling and walls which made me sick.
The site was beautiful inside and out.
The hostess/caretaker Cynthia was delightful.
Parking easy out front. and so convenient from the highway traveling in and out.
The beautiful historic home is located next to a park, and is within walking distance to Acrisure Stadium where we attended a concert. Walking back to the inn at night as a female felt slightly intimidating. There were no issues encountered during the walk. The accommodations differ from standard hotels, as there is no elevator, ice machine, or mini fridge. Parking on the street is free and was not problematic in finding a parking spot. Overall, it is a location worth visiting again.
Sam was very pleasant and responsive. Great building, but needs some updates by the new owners. Location is right across from a park and close to downtown.
The Boggs Mansion is a restored old mansion with 8 rooms all of which are different. Guests are welcomed by a live-in house manager who attends to guest needs and provides breakfast each day. My wife and I loved our stay. The free parking, price point, large room, and downtown proximity were a big plus as was Samantha, the house manager. The mansion is old, however, and while rooms were homey and large, they do lack some of the things you find in a newer hotel (better lighting, larger bathroom). But then what else would you expect from an old classic Mansion, Right? If we visited Pittsburgh again, we would go back.
The history and ambience of this property is worth the visit alone. The staff is more than welcoming and the facility is beautiful. Boggâs Mansion is well worth the visit for any North Shore activities you have planned.
Great and cozy stay in Pitt, very walkable to downtown and the stadiums. Staff was super kind and accommodating. Will plan to stay here every time in headed to Pittsburgh.
Sam was an absolute pleasure to have as a host. Sam went above and beyond for me and my husband. Even as far as keeping an eye on the weather for us as we had a 7 hour drive back home. Keeps plenty of snacks and drinks stocked for guests. You always see Sam maintaining the property from sunrise to sunset. I would love to come back every time we visit the Pittsburgh area. Off street parking in the front for free as well as parking in the back. We did not get to experience the courtyard due to weather but we say was beautiful. Sam brings a sense of home to a historic building. I recommend this place to anyone who wants a quiet couples getaway. I wouldnât recommend children personally (as a mother) since it is a rather old building so sound definitely carries through the walls or floorboards. Sam also gives a brief 5 minute historic walkthrough as you check in and gives you a history to the building and surrounding area that involved the Boggs family. Old photographs were placed in a binder in the parlor for guests to look at. And if you want to leave a kind note for Sam there is a notepad there with nothing but positive reviews from 2022. I know most of the reviews center around the famous chocolate chip cookiesâŠ.my husband the biggest sweet tooth I know said âHoney these are the best cookies I have ever put in my mouth.â Only downfall is no elevator for those who need one. I hope you all love it as much as my husband and I did.
We always enjoy a stay at the Bogg's mansion. It is always comfortable, quiet, and beautiful. We like the breakfast nook; it encourages chatting with other guests, which is like being around the same table in a smaller BnB.
Boggs Mansion was a beautiful place to stay. Across the street was a wonderful park. Sam was very hospitable and gave us a tour of the property. Definitely worth staying!
