Detailed directions

From Pittsburgh (heading to the west):

Take I-279 out of town. Stay on this main road for several miles as it's designation changes from I-279 to US Route 22/30, to PA Route 60. Just after the road changes into PA 60, you'll start down a long hill and pass an Ikea store on the right. As you near the bottom of the hill move into the right lane, because you need to take the next exit, Montour Run Exit #2. As you curve around on the ramp be ready to bear right at the Cliff Mine Road sign. This puts you onto a road that crosses under the highway. As you emerge from the underpass stay to the right and make sure you are in the right lane as you approach the traffic light. Turn left at the light (yes, you can turn left from the right hand lane here).

This will put you onto Cliff Mine Road. There is a sign here for the Four Points Sheraton but it's small and you'll do well to follow the large blue State Police signs. You'll immediately pass a Marriott on the right, and just ahead there is another traffic light. At this light there are two right turns (this is Pittsburgh after all). You need to take the second, less sharp right. This will put you on to RIDC Park West Drive. Keep following the State Police signs. Go up the hill on this gently curving road, and after 0.4 miles you'll come to the top of the hill and Industry Drive on the right. Make the right turn onto Industry, and you'll stay on this road for a total of 0.7 miles. As you go along the (what else) gently curving road you'll pass the State Police Barracks on the right, and after a bit you'll seem to leave the industrial park. Industry Drive then goes under another road and starts into a broad curve. Along the curve you'll pass a dirt road to the right labeled Enterprise Drive, and a short distance after that you'll come to another road on the right, Industry Lane. Turn right onto Industry Lane. The road is hard to miss because there is not only a small directional sign for the hotel, but also a large, and what appears to be lit-up, sign which says: Four Points Sheraton Baralo Hotel. Stay on Industry Lane as it goes down a small hill and curves to the right. At the end of the lane is the hotel.

From the airport and Beaver County (heading to the east):

Take State Route 60 east, and turn off at Montour Run, exit #2. Go to light at the bottom of the ramp. Make sure you are in the right lane as you approach the light. Turn right at the light, and you'll be on Cliff Mine Road. Continue with the directions above at the second paragraph.

We recommend extreme caution when using the on-line route planners in an attempt to locate the hotel as none of them seem to be able to map properly to the hotel's address and Pittsburgh construction may not be taken into account. Feel free to contact for directions tailor made for you.
