Good experience with Hosting Power

I have been using Hosting Power for a few years now and find them very thorough in providing background checks on potential guests. They are also very responsive to any queries I have made. Also there is never any pressure to accept guests.

I have been hosting guests through Hosting Power

I have been hosting guests through Hosting Power for a few years now. They are a fantastic company to deal with. Firstly, they check the background of each guest individually, provide all paperwork necessary including house rules, guest weekly payment schedule and are always prompt with replies. I find Hosting Power are committed to excellence ensuring both guests and hosts have a positive experience. The Hosting Power App is also great and easy to Navigate.

Strangers becoming Family

Im with Hosting Power a number of years now,and I just can't find one thing I could fault.
Staff are so helpful, prompt with their replies and my Guest are always lovely, polite and I have some who are now firm family members of my family.
Two of my former guest in particular one form Palestine who stayed with me for over a year,is now married, living in Ireland and im officially the Irish Nana of their first born.We visit regularly and make contact with each other on a regular basis.
The second is from Malaysia and now lives and works in Dublin.
He is a regular visitor to our home for weekend brakes as we are now his Irish family and this is his Irish home.
We have built fantastic relationships with in particular with these two men.
Our lives and family are now enriched because of these 2 separate stays in our home.They started out as compleat strangers and now are family to us.
I couldn't recommend Hosting Power highly enough.

We accepted a guest who subsequently sought to have terms amended

We accepted a guest who subsequently accepted the booking on their side. After confirming same day we would revert in 2 days to confirm arrival time on the agreed start date booked we received a number of messages from tenant ranging from viewing room prior to moving in, seeking an earlier start date then what was agreed , seeking to extend term booked and seeking to pay rent monthly - all before the guest started their tenancy. Feel the terms and conditions are clearly outlined for both sides when booking and this resulted in having to cancel the booking which meant room remained idle for number of additional days.

First Experienc letting Room

My first time to let a room is a good experience. Both myself and the tenant have contracts that make the process clear and easy to live with. The Hosting Power are readily available to answer questions as issues happen.

Hosting Power

Hosting Power have secured me a tenant without me having to make much of an effort! I liked the fact that I could chose a tenant that I felt was suitable for me & my son it’s important that we are all comfortable together . I found all Hosting Power’s emails to be very helpful & friendly . I can’t thank them enough

Very happy working with Hosting Power.

I have been working with Hosting Power for a number of years now and have never had a problem. They make the process very easy and are easy to contact if need be. Any students I have had from HP have been lovely and respectable regarding house rules and family members. I'd have no hesitation in recommending HP for anyone who is thinking of hosting.
