I've been playing the piano for 9 years now, so lets see if I can help you a bit...
Guitar and Piano sheet music are very similar, except the Piano usually has treble clef and bass clef rows instead of just the treble row. So if you can read Guitar music, you're all set with the treble clef row. You'll just need to get used to bass clef (yes it's a bit confusing, but once you got it, it's easy).
Picture of Piano Keys + Notes for both clefs:

First off you'll need to find ';middle C,'; it may not be in the exact middle, but that's what it's called. On Piano sheet music (that has both treble and bass clef), it's the very center of that space in between the rows. That note is C, that's why it's called ';middle C.'; Anyways, just look at your Piano keys, and try to pinpoint the exact center note, then from there, look for the closest C key, that's usually middle C.
Once you locate middle C, you can start playing! Try this piece:

If you got your notes messed up, refer to the other picture above.
One easy tip: When you see the note in the middle of the clef rows, with the horizontal line through it, that is middle C.
Once you can play that song smoothly, you're basically able to play the Piano. Yes, there are other things to like the type of note and how long to hold it for, as well as other symbols. The song I gave you to play doesn't have anything too complex except there're notes where you have to hold, but don't worry about that yet, just get used to the Piano key placements and reading the music...
