I stayed at the RI NS for one night after choosing this location over the RI Oakland. What a great choice!\n\nThe RI North Shore charges the same as the RI Oakland, but the RI NS is a much better property. Stainless steel appliances, great mattress, and nice modern finishes are all standard in most rooms.\n\nThe staff is also very pleasant.\n\nIf you don't need to be close to Pitt campus and have the ability to drive, stay here!  Next time I am in Pittsburgh, I will be staying at this property.
