Pros

“The 2FA security codes only get sent to our main email address. When different staff members at different desks need to log in to check guests in, we have to wait on whoever has access to that inbox to send us the code.”
JF

Jacalyn F.

Sales

“Everything is connected in a way that actually makes sense operationally — from reservations and channel management to payments and reporting — which removes a lot of the friction that hospitality teams usually deal with across multiple systems.”
EH

Eric H.

Owner

“The booking management is great, and I particularly like the "Whistle for CB" feature, which keeps me and my guests connected at all times.”
NS

Nicole S.

Hospitality Director

Pros

“This product was brought in by Motel 6 learned it by myself and trained others.”
MD

Michelle D.

General Manager

“The strength of HotelKey is the grass root understanding of business needs of end user; and it’s been solidify by the excellent TEAM.”
GU

Gary U.

Manager

“For adding a pet, we have to push several buttons, where one would suffice.”
DA

Debby A.

Manager

Cons

“Every issue gets funneled into endless tickets, bots, and dead-end emails. If you actually need support to run your business, look elsewhere, Cloudbeds disappears the moment you need them most. ”
CM

Cameron M.

CEO

“Each reservation coming from an OTA has pending balances (we are on Channel Connect) which isn't good for our book keeping.”
KI

Kenji I.

GM

“As soon as a thing is more than a basic problem they do not know how to handle it, create a ticket and that ticket gets succed into a black hole of non existent technical support.”
HB

Henk B.

Owner

Cons

“Doesn't update Data properly if occupancy is above 90% , need option to add existing reservations to the group or option to transfer folios to one room for multi room reservation , if possible auto update signpad app .”
DP

Daisy P.

Manager

“I don't like that when you bring up a date for arrivals or departures, it shows dates for before and after the date. If I have an arrival for 5/13/22, I don't want to see the arrivals for 5/12/22 or 5/14/22, Just 5/13/22!”
DA

Debby A.

Manager

“ex: it won't let you make any changes for groups such as date change, rate change. ”
