Need A Place To Stay In Pittsburgh

 I had planned this trip to Pittsburgh to watch the Pirates for some time, but had failed to make reservations with the Choice Hotels; I belong to Choice Hotels It's free to join.

So. I logged onto Choice Hotels @www.ChoiceHotels.com with my only requirement being a room priced less than $100USD and found a number of them at EconoLodge

I chose the one at 1303 Clairton Blvd., Jefferson Hills, PA 15025

 Telephone #412-384-5811/fax412-714-4798. 

I hit the jackpot!

Now, I haven't been too impressed with the EconoLodges in the past

 But, this one is the Gold Standard!

Clean Rooms, Plenty of Free Parking, Close to Denny's, Sheetz, Super Wal-Mart, and Plenty of other shopping venues; and, it was only a 30 minute drive to PNC Stadium

If that wasn't good enough, I met two interesting and friendly people that I plan on keeping in contact with.

One, a female truck driver from Nashville. TN, and the other, a hard-charging, twenty-three year old, workaholic from Oklahoma. Named Tanner.

Tanner stated, I have stayed here eight times in two years and always found the rooms clean and the owners friendly

Enough with the verbage, here are the photos:
