An even bigger challenge is when they're all full of guests\! This is where Hostfully guidebooks came in and saved the day. I've been using Hostfully's guidebooks for over 3 years and our guests love them. They find the information and recommendations we provide extremely helpful and because of it, we believe, they enjoy their stay more. Importantly, they are intuitive for first-time users and easy to dive right into. I was never asked by any guests for instructions or for help using them. We provide a QR code in each property which guests can scan to access the guidebook and voila\! The management side is very easy and user-friendly. I was able to create almost 100 guidebooks for different unique homes in just 3 days\! Hostfully also makes it easy and quick to update the guidebooks using a super-efficient "card" system which I love (it's genius). I used to create and update guidebooks by using a word processor, a very manual and time-consuming approach I would not recommend from the moment Hostfully is around. It's a no-brainer, really... Give it a try\! > > **Cons**: None comes to mind, honestly. I provided feedback for improvements when I first started working with Hostfully and the team was always so receptive and appreciated our feedback. They implemented so many improvements since then... so, what I saw as "cons" in the early days have been more or less ironed out. ----- ### "Great Guidebook - disappointing customer care" — 4.0/5 > **Kay** | *11 May 2023* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to set upEasy for guests to find the information they need, in one document > > **Cons**: When trying to change my email address on account I was unable to. On contacting customer service they informed me why. I then deleted a Guidebook which was no longer needed, leaving the remaining one which was vital. When I was asked to check the account details, the email had not been changed and the vital Guidebook had been removed (NOT by me). There was no way that I was going to set it all up again. Although I was happy with the Guidebook, this was a bad experience. ----- ### "Hostfully provide guest guidebooks for a modern businesses" — 5.0/5 > **Sara** | *11 May 2023* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use. Modern approach to the old fashioned paper based guidebooks we've all seen in guest houses over the years. Can be sent in advance of stay so that the guest is better prepared. > > **Cons**: Nothing to dislike, even if technophobe this was easy. ----- ### "Digital Guidebooks Helpful for Vacation Rental" — 4.0/5 > **Salma** | *13 May 2023* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the way the digital guidebook is set up with "cards" for each category, and that it is easy to send to guests so that they can have all the important information in one place. > > **Cons**: Not really. Overall the set up was pretty easy and straight forward. > > I like that it is an easy way to create and share house rules, check-in information, property specific info. This is all really important information that guests need to have, and even though we have a printed House Manual at the property, it is essential to have something digital. I like that it is an easy link to share with guests and they can access it from anywhere. ----- Page: 1 / 6\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.co.uk/software/127147/hostfully-guidebook-platform?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.co.uk/software/127147/hostfully-guidebook-platform) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
