Great app, great experience
I really appreciate this app, the ease of it, and the ability for prospective tenants and landlords to be able to communicate. I know that there is an upgraded version, I have used and will continue to use the free version as it has worked very well for me.

Would recommend but be wary
I found my apartment in NYC on pretty short notice through posting an ad about myself and people reaching out. I honestly think I got really lucky with a super ideal sublessor. I wish there were less brokers/shady listings.

I posted my ad on Zillow
I posted my ad on Zillow, next door, Facebook Marketplace and spare room and every single response to renting my room came from spare room not one single response from the others.....

Spare room gives you good customer service with an actual human being
Spare room gives you good customer service with an actual human being if you need that! Something that seems to be very rare these days.

Customer Service was fast and friendly
Customer Service was fast and friendly. He renewed my ad another month because I didn’t get any renter. SpareRoom keeps sending emails about potential renter that I had been contacting. Lots of extra work. Downside of this portal is that it doesn’t limit the potential renters to indicate 3 or 4 preferred areas or zip codes. It is wasting lots of time for renters and landlords.

Super helpful assistance from Noah!
Somehow The dates of renewal were confusing me, so I called and spoke with Noah and he was very prompt and quick about renewing for another 28 days which will help a lot so we can complete our mission with spare room. Thank you so much Noah!
