Pros

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

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.”
ZV

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.”
AH

Albron H.

President

Pros

“Good, I do believe however, there is some fine tuning to do with regards to semper and Knightsbridge links as we are experiencing a lot of over bookings which comes through from Knightsbridge and does not allow us to accommodate the Guests on the Semper calendar.”
RK

Richard K.

Assistant General Manager

“This makes it easier for me to track what is happening at my properties and pull any report I want.”
TR

Thabang R.

Operations Manager

“e.g. monthly focus communication to allow for more continous indirect training and learnings”
SB

Shaah B.

Director

Cons

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

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).”
RD

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.”
DR

Diego R.

CTO

Cons

“Only issue for us is the first recipe of recipe within a recipe is that it creates units instead of also volume or weight, so can't create bulk stuff”
AH

Achmat H.

Director

“I miss the ability to be able to log into the system remotely via an app in order to perform functions that are not permitted by on-site staff. ”
GP

Gerrit P.

Director

“Most reports do not have totals When you enter goods recieved - you cannot save - if there is a power cut you have to redo all your work.”
