What do you like best about Hostaway?

Mel has been exceptional, truly patient with my temperament and the stress the process has caused me. But I can only say that she has been very professional, kind, and above all proactive, attentive throughout the process.

Staff like Mel are hard to find, she takes her work very seriously and it shows! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simplicity and Efficiency for Property Management"
What do you like best about Hostaway?

The simplicity of using Hostaway is the most exciting thing for me, along with the intuitive interface. These two aspects are what I was looking for, as they allow for easier delegation to other people within the company for using the platform. The intuitive interface enables collaborators to find solutions independently and intuitively, which is important to me. Additionally, the home boarding process was really very simple and fast thanks to Melania's help, making the onboarding aspect very positive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Better Property Management Systems"
What do you like best about Hostaway?

With onboarding app architecture, it requires time to get use to a new platform, which will ultimately make our roles easier from property managers, cleaners and maintenance.

Hostaway as a partner ticks boxes on so many levels on the back end enabling better customer experiences and engagement, and property management.

Ces as the onboarding specialist, has been been absolutely fantastic, so I look forward to working with Hostaway and creating lasting experiences for our customers.

"Efficient Channel Manager with Top Support"
What do you like best about Hostaway?

I like that Hostaway allows the use of platforms like VRBO while providing simple solutions for clarity. The mobile view of the calendar is particularly nice, which is perfect for me. I also greatly appreciate the support; Antoine was extremely competent and friendly. He took the time to explain everything clearly and simply, and was able to answer every specific question in detail. The support is truly perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hostaway?

I find the clarity in the calendar on the desktop view needs improvement. Additionally, there are errors in the adoption of notification settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Mel made Our Hostaway Onboarding Seamless and Easy"
What do you like best about Hostaway?

Mel was amazing from start to finish. I have only ever used Guesty, so being new to Hostaway, she was super patient with all my questions. Not only helped me guide my way through it, but even got involved with our marketing team to guide them. She is a credit to the company and our company, STAY Group were thrilled to have her as our onboarding tutor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hostaway?

Honestly nothing. Everything is fully functional, flexible and easy to manage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hostaway?

Once in awhile, I get a really fantastic technical support team member like, Kristna A! WOWSA! I got lucky because she was able to help me configure monthly tax remittance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hostaway?

Once in awhile, some of the wait times are 45 minutes to an hour. But you guys are working on that so I am rest assured! Otherwise, everything is all good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Streamlined Multi-Channel Property Management"
What do you like best about Hostaway?

I like the ease of use, along with the central inbox and API integrations in Hostaway. These API integrations make it possible to list on multiple channels without worrying about double bookings, thanks to the real-time updates. I had a great experience with the onboarding process, especially with Alma Gutierrez, who did an outstanding job helping us get started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hostaway?

Could have better owner notifications, the ability to set up reminders as well as schedule an online payment link with a due date as opposed to only due now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
