Happy to Recommend Hosting Power

I have been more than pleased with all the young people I have welcomed into my home through Hosting Power over the years. Thankfully, I have never encountered any problems but it is reassuring to know that, should I need any assistance or advice, Hosting Power are just at the end of a phone call and are happy to assist.

Hosting with Hosting Power

Communication with all staff in Hosting Power has been very clear and supportive. The booking process is very straightforward and the provision of house rules for guests is very helpful and makes it very easy to communicate what is required of guests. I have had very good experience with all guests who have stayed with me.

Do their own thing no considation for…

Do their own thing no considation for host, set house rules, price without asking host who is proving service. Would not recommend any house owner to use Hosting Power.

Reply from Hosting Power

Hello Carmel,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations.

We would like to clarify a few points. Hosts always remain in full control of their listing, including the rental price. While Hosting Power provides pricing recommendations based on local market conditions and demand to help maximise a property's rental potential, the final price can always be set by the host. It can be changed at any time through their dashboard.

Regarding our house rules, these are standard across all listings on the platform and are designed to protect both hosts and guests by providing clear expectations and reducing the risk of misunderstandings. They are publicly available before a booking is made, ensuring complete transparency for everyone involved.

We value our hosts and strive to provide a service that balances flexibility with consistency, creating a safe and reliable experience for both property owners and tenants. We appreciate your feedback and will continue to improve our communication and support for all hosts.

Regards,
Hosting Power Team

Good honestt info about guests

Good honestt info about guests. All young stdents and workers have been very respectful. Just one diffiiculty a young man obsesssive about dust who bought in his own cleaner despite my havinng. Cleaned thoroughly myself. He did a runner effectively by not giviing me notice of my departure , then had the cheek to complain about my wearing shorts in the morning during the warm days of last summer. There glad. to say got that off my chest.
