Reviews of The Maverick by KasaReviews of The Maverick by Kasa

Good time in pittsburgh, with a excellent base location My wife and me really enjoyed are experience at Kasa Maverick in shadyside pittsburgh. Shops ,restaurants and transportation 2m walking distance. The room was quiet and comfortable. I really recommend Kasa

Parking was a little challenging in this downtown location, but once done it was easy to walk to parks and restaurants. Or eat in the lovely and popular hotel cafe. A cool retro vibe throughout.

Very nice place, virtual check in but there has been a friendly person in lobby to answer my questions about nearby places. Great base to go sightseeing all around pittsburgh

Room was clean ac worked perfectly. Only problem tv stopped working for an hour could of been due to weather but overall highly recommend and will stay again

2nd time at kasa. 1st time was amazing, just the opposite this visit.... Elevator broken so had to lug our luggage to the 4th floor after a 7 hour drive, no one on staff and customer service (California number) very sub par!! Unit was smaller than reserved and when we left we forgot some items in fridge. Called and they said they had our stuff so we drove back too only getting half of what was in fridge! Young lady at the desk which I had to wait 10 minutes for her return said sorry but supposedly already had people in room so I wasn't aloud up too the room..... Unfortunately we won't be back. Don't care how quaint the place is, if you can't provide good customer service, close your doors!

Great building and cute restaurant

Very Nice Place. I will come back soon

Great building, artsy, clean, awesome on site restaurant. No check in desk, self service. Walkable restaurant's & bar's.

Quaint and Modern Hotel The stay was very enjoyable and everything was as I expected. Close to restaurants and hotel was comfortable.

Awesome place for groups! Our Peace Corps group came from all over the country to reconnect after 25+ years. The Maverick was perfect! The rooms were lovely, the check in process was easy, the location was great.

環境感覺不太安全 環境周遭較多流浪漢 街道不太乾淨 但飯店本身是乾淨的

A minor issue with AC. Management solved the issue. Overall a really cool and comfortable hotel to stay. Location is great. 5 minute to excellent restaurants.

Love this location. Close to restaurants. Easy stay when we are visitng the area.

Cute, quite and secure location close to everything. I loved my stay.

Great, safe, clean spot to stay! Easy check in, easy check out! Definitely will be booking here again!

Very clean and great location! Easy virtual check in.

One of the best hotel experiences I've ever had and it was super cheap too. I was basically left undisturbed and everything was easy to do. I would definitely stay here again.

Cozy and Comfortable and truly a Pittsburgh vibe! Likes: It felt like truly staying in Pittsburgh. The building while old has been renovated and maintained. There's a lot of history in the architecture and doesn't feel like a typical hotel room. Highly recommend, and would stay here next time without question!

Alles bestens Likes: Interessantes Gebäude, toll adaptiert, Ausstattung des Zimmers sehr aufmerksam und weitsichtig (Ohrenstoppeln, make up Tücher, Kekse, …) Dislikes: Das Haus an sich ist recht laut- man hört immer wieder die Leitungen nachts. Aber daran gewöhnt man sich

By far, the best place I have stayed at in years! And I travel year-round!

I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT THIS PLACE. Awesome. View from my window below of East Liberty Presbyterian Church. Stunning city scape view. Even from 3rd floor.. Amazing building, one of a kind boutique. 2nd stay there. Had a go to Airbnb in Bloomfield but Kasa is 10x nicer for 20 a night more. Short walk to Friendship, Shadyside, Google plex, Bakery Square. 10 min drive/UBER to Oakland/universities Little Italy, Lawrenceville, Morningside, Highland Park, Squirrel Hill.. 15 min drive or transit to downtown if you don't mind rapid bus. Classy- coffee table books, nice retro fridge, SUPER COMFY BED omg SO COMFY. I loved the bed- my gf didn't but ymmv. Check out the gym if you can, amazing vintage 1970s decor from when it was a YMCA. Building is NOT open to public. You have to buzz in with a code number. Feels VERY SAFE. A few FYI- not negative but FYI There is no garage, valet, etc. Meters on street or at library. I personally would secure or hide valuables. The area is very walkable. There's night spots, a load of eateries. The neighborhood looks rough- its MUCH safer than it looks... its just OLD- BUT be aware of surroundings esp if you are not familiar with the area, or walking at night- if in doubt take uber or drive. You're next to a church and a public library. Youll probably encounter a homeless person or two, or someone who wants you to join their religion. Use your own judgment on both. Two things- lobby bar would ABSOLUTELY ROCK, and paper cups with lkds for coffee "to go"

The air conditioning was unbearablely loud and didn't manage the temperature well. Also the least they could do for a self-service building is have a vending machine or something for a quick drink or snack.

Disappointing Likes: Good location Dislikes: Might be the loudest air-conditioning system I've ever experienced. Room wildly fluctuated in temperature. There's also nowhere in the building to grab a drink or a snack - even a vending machine would be an upgrade. Also no fitness room.

The first night, the shower gel dispenser was broken, I text the hotel per instructions, the response was warm and friendly and patient, but the issue is the problem was never fixed, even after multiple interactions. I suspect I was talking to AI. There is zero human contact in the whole process, the concept is new, probably can save operations cost. it is okay unless things broken. I ended up having to buy a shower gel myself from the store. The hotel should do a better job to include real human to address real problem.

The area was not too far from my brothers house, easily accessible.

I stayed at Kasa in Pittsburgh for 3 nights. I absolutely loved the self service concept. Rooms are modern and spacious. Location is great. Walking distance to Whole Foods and Target and the neighborhood itself is vibrant-numerous restaurants and coffee shops. I was initially anxious about parking because of the reviews from prior guests. This was not an issue. Super easy to find free street parking after 6 PM. During the day, I parked in the lot behind the hotel for 1.5/hour. Still very affordable (my advice is to use the mobile parking app). Kasa will be my go to hotel next time I travel to Pittsburgh.

Stayed here for 4 nights in fall 2024. It’s ok but pretty basic / no frills. And there’s sometimes significant noise from the event space the building owner leases out. Furthermore, if you stay multiple nights you have to request basic things like fresh towels and the staff is fairly slow to respond via their messaging system. I ended up feeling disappointed overall. Location is a plus though.

clean and quiet .. close to everything you need

Here’s a polished version of your review that keeps your warm, detailed tone while making it flow smoothly for readers: --- I really enjoyed my stay at Kasa in Pittsburgh. The room was exactly as described, complete with thoughtful amenities and a lovely welcome beverage and snack. Both the bathroom and living areas were spacious, and communication was easy throughout. The hosts clearly prioritized my comfort and made the stay feel seamless. A couple of notes for future guests: the stairs can be tricky to navigate with heavier luggage, and the doors swing outward, which may feel a bit awkward when entering the space. Since the property is shared with a bar, you may encounter a lively crowd upon arrival, so just be prepared for some noise and curious glances. Parking is free after 6:00 p.m. but resumes at 8:00 a.m., so it’s best to quickly load/unload and then scout the surrounding area for spots, as parking can be scarce. Overall, it was comfortable and enjoyable.

Clean, classy and quiet We’ve stayed at The Maverick 4 or 5 times over the past couple years. It’s always clean, classy and quiet. It’s also priced competitively. We’ll be back.

had bad time here Likes: I liked only the location. Located in shadyside good area. Dislikes: It’s a very small hotel with no fresh air inside the rooms. They only clean when you’re checking out. They call themselves a digital hotel, but there’s nothing digital about it, just staff working remotely and using that as the label. We also had troubles with checking in. Service was so aweful and very slow. Highly not recommennded

Likes: Io e il mio ragazzo abbiamo soggiornato a Pittsburg come meta di mezzo tra le cascate del Niagara a Washington DC. Che dire struttura bellissima e la camera era immensa e bellissima , una delle più belle che ho mai visto in America . Dentro la nostra camera c’era anche un tavolino con vista sulla vetrata con la chiesa dove la sera ci siamo rilassati cenando visto che Pittsburg come città o almeno quel quartiere non aveva molto da offrire fuori. Dislikes: È un hotel dove il check - in si fa online , per quel che mi riguarda è andato tutto bene ma non ho visto personale in caso ci fosse bisogno.

We enjoyed our stay at the maverick! The room was very clean, comfortable, and stylish. The location was very convenient and street parking was easy. The only problem was that I had some trouble with the customer service text line. We booked two nights separately but wanted to stay in the same room for both. It was difficult to get clear instructions/help over text and it wasn't clear whether you were chatting with a person or a computer. If you're having any issues I'd recommend just calling as they were very helpful once I spoke with someone.

Best stay in the city 10/10 The room was so beautiful! Well furnished, super comfortable and huge bed, complimentary snacks and water and coffee and ra. The roon was very clean, bathroom too. Air conditioning was nice and cold which we were grateful for. The whole building is beautiful, lovely old pittsburg tower with a fancy restaurant in the lobby. Keyless entry could not be easier , worked like a dream. Wish we had stayed longer!

A great option for parents visiting college kids This boutique-style hotel is a great option for parents visiting their kids at college in Pittsburgh. It's only a short drive from Carnegie Mellon or Pitt. Overnight parking is free in an adjacent lot (though you have to pay starting at 8am, which is easy to do from a parking app, and quite inexpensive). It is usually much more affordable than other options in the area, but the accommodations are very nice. You must be comfortable with not having a live person at a front desk. You check in and check out online or via text, and you are given a code to enter the hotel and your room. Staff is VERY responsive and helpful via text. It's nice to arrive at the hotel and go straight to your room. The building is a converted old YMCA with lots of interesting charm. The newly finished bar area and lobby look very nice (though the bar area only appears to be open limited hours). The rooms are all updated and well appointed. There are a number of decent restaurants and coffee shops within a walkable distance.

Second stay at this hotel while in Pittsburgh. Up and coming neighborhood near a Whole Foods, Target and tons of cute neighborhood restaurants and cafes. The hotel itself is lovely. I much prefer to stay here when visiting my child at the University of Pitt. Street parking or metered parking in a lot behind the building is abundant and I don't feel overwhelmed with garage parking or the Forbes Avenue traffic/congestion. It is a short 10 minute drive from that. So much character in the architectural details!!! Love that this building has been repurposed from a YMCA. The mid century modern furnishings are adorable. The contactless check in and parking is convenient. I will be back.

Booked last minute. Smooth and easy booking and check in! Comfortable and clean.

This is one of the coolest hotels at which I've stayed in a while. Comfortable, chic, and sexy, it is in a very walkable area with a lot to do. I will definitely be back!
