Pros

“I mainly use it to centralize bookings, manage cleaners/cleaning times, automate guest messages, and streamline the check-in/check-out process.”

Jubril B.

Consultant

“Price optimizer could be built out more to include orphan gaps and other specifics. But I am sure they are looking at it.”

Zach V.

CEO

“Often when editing current reservations or updating blocked out dates, it takes a few hops, skips, and jumps to get the task accomplished.”

Albron H.

President

Pros

“Additionally, the seamless smart lock integration—which automatically generates a unique access code for every single guest—provides incredible peace of mind and makes check-in entirely hands-off."”

Susan V.

Owner

“What has been amazing for me is the owners portal were they can access their calendar, view reservations and block dates for personal use, this has given my company a great transparency view from their perspective.”

Manuel M.

CEO

“The platform provides a centralized system where we can handle reservations, guest communication, pricing, and channel management all in one place.”

Claudia M.

Property Manager

Cons

“Seems subscription cost for smaller hosts is more pricey as compared to their enterprise solution?”

Jubril B.

Consultant

“It messed up my listings 3x and said I had way more beds (like 16 or 18 per property, when it only has 3-4, and said it only had 1 bathroom instead of 2-3).”

Rachel D.

Owner

“However, I was managing my 40 properties through another PMS, and everything was working perfectly with Airbnb, proving this excuse was not valid. Despite knowing they had failed to deliver on their promises, Guesty charged me $1,000 for an onboarding that never happened.”

Diego R.

CTO

Cons

“A few features are missing or limited for traditional hotel workflows—for example, you can’t easily hold back door codes for guests who haven’t submitted a credit card, and there’s no way to send an itemized line-item invoice; it has to go out as the full reservation balance.”

Christopher F.

General Manager

“The main drawback I’ve experienced is the amount of time it took to resolve a group billing issue—over three weeks. While the support team was polite and eventually resolved the problem, the delay impacted our workflow and created challenges for managing a time-sensitive reservation.”

Kaylyn V.

AGM

“I added guesty accounting and it has not worked for me. Since I live in mexico, it is not an option to add multiple taxes and I have not been able to automize my owner reports.”

Manuel M.

CEO
