The room was labeled as a queen size room, but the bed felt smaller than that. The bathroom didn’t have a fan, which would have been nice. The concierge floor was stocked with water, towels, earplugs, toothbrush/toothpaste. The check in and check out was seamless and easy to figure out. Would stay again!

All went well. The property is clean and well taken care of. The area around the hotel is a little loud on the weekend but not bad. Communication is very good and the online check in/out was seemless.

Caroline, the concierge on duty when we arrived, is phenomenal! She was engaging, funny, and extremely helpful. The room was as expected with easy access to the building and our room. We had our trepidations about the parking situation and it turned out to be a non-issue. We also had our concerns about the virtual front desk and boutique / niche feel for the hotel. This is not the hotel for everyone. We knew what we were reserving and knew about the low beds. This is not a negative criticism of the beds. The bed and mattress were great. Rather, after a good night’s sleep after an active day, my 59 year old knees didn’t like pushing me up from such a low height. That’s on me. I’ll be looking for the typical bed frame, box spring, and mattress offerings going forward. Final thought, read the instructions when you receive them. Ask a bunch of questions to prepare yourself. We did and our stay went very smoothly! Enjoy!

Parking is not available on site. Have to walk through an alley which is rather ominous at night. Room was very clean with a unique design. Never saw an employee on site.

The property is not a real hotel, just an expensive guest house. The Virtual Front Desk is a joke. There is no maid service, no parking, no temporary storage, no food, no bar. The coffee maker is terrible, the TV has very few channels, no stores nearby, and getting any help is a long phone call to India.

Maverick Kasa is a formula where no services are provided. The room and the building are really great but there nobody around from the management with whom you can talk. Nobody cleaning the room, nobody offering help for a cab, or advising on restaurants etc.. Said so , rooms are really nice and if you think you can cope with this formula it is really value for money

The building is stately and classic. The hotel rooms are very uniquely designed. High ceiling, large window, seating area, and vicinity to a landmark church gave us a very interesting experience.

The checkin and checkout process really needs a person or a key pad that is more reliable. We almost weren’t able to access the building when we returned after being out and we would have been completely stuck if people didn’t let us in while they were leaving.

Older building that has been updated. Rooms are cheerful but lighting could be better. Occasional musty smell but air conditioning helped.

I love the beauty and old architecture character of the building, the check in and out technology was pretty cool. Front desk lady was very helpful and professional. The room was very clean and we love the simplicity of the old/modern decor. My only concern is that the windows need curtains between the dark blinds, so you can enjoy the natural lighting of the room and people can't see you from outside, because the windows are gigantic, they need more accessible parking, a bar (with a dining area), the lobby has a lot of potential, it's as nice as it is, but with a little effort it can be better. Other than that, we will be returning to the Maverick by Kasa at the Burgh/. Our stay was LOVELY<3

Beware of very hard beds!
HARD BEDS, not firm. HARD. The mattresses are 6-7 inches of incompressible material, on top of solid wood. I stayed 3 nights, in town on business. I did not get one night of good sleep. After the first night, I texted the unseen staff asking if they had any softer mattresses. They did not, and suggested that I pile up blankets to make it softer. (Yes, that's just the way I like to sleep on an August night. ) I resorted to Advil PM, which made me groggy the following day and made work and driving home difficult. The location is nice, the room very clean and quiet, but I still would have left after the first night, if I could have afforded to.

Room 518 corner room with huge windows on 2 sides, gorgeous views of the church. Huge room! Great value for the money! Clean, new, has all the ammenities and little touches that make it special. Finally a hotel room with hooks for towels and clothes. My room had 22 hooks!! Loved everything about this place.

We had a wonder night stay. We went into Pittsburgh to catch a candlelight Adele tribute, have dinner at Fish not foul and just relax. The Maverick was a neat place to stay, and interesting being a converted YMCA. Navigating the TV took a minute and the water pressure was very low but our room was nice and we had a great stay.

This is a gorgeously restored 115 year old YMCA with original architecture, intricate detail and comfortable and well appointed rooms. With the addition of a concierge on duty, the hotel has a personal touch as well as an efficient online presence. The area is full of great food, history and vibrant culture.
