We are moving a client from another PMS to this one and the support havent answered 4 messages in 3 days - how bad is this support on this?? Community, is it really worth setting up on this system if the support is rubbish???

 

The issue we have is the booking.com rooms are not open and according to the documentation they are setup correctly and we contact booking.com and they said channel is connected correctly but the issue of opening a room lies on the PMS side and no one on support answers.

To answer your questions, Hospitable is growing a lot, so they are swamped with support inquiries. 

And second, Booking.com is a nightmare, so anything takes 10x time compared to Airbnb. Yes, it could be hospitable bottleneck, but more often than not, it is Booking.com's shitty software ​@Team P

Also, ​@Team P  I'll recommend paying for priority support at least for the first 4 months that you are new to Hospitable. Its not that expensive. and you can drop it after you are fully set

So your screenshot of the open rooms from Herrwood, shows the property open and available. Are you asking about the one standard rate room for Herrwood you have squared?

I agree with ​@Homelike.ca. I would invest in Priority Support. And knowing Booking.com and how weird their rate system is, I am inclined to think it is something on their end.

p.s. thanks for the suggestions

 

but it’s a parent child relationship. There are “two rooms / children” / villa configurations and thus two different standar rate types. The mapping of parent to child is correct in hospitable according to their documentation and the room ID is correctly associated to the room/property in Hospitable - however, on booking.com it remains closed - this is usually a mapping error for rate plans.

The issue isnt booking.com it’s hospitable and the support needs to step in here because the rate plan is mapped correctly (deleted all the other ones to make it easy) but hospitable support hasnt answered our support emails in 3 days.

 

Now upgrading to priority support is an option but the disclaimer on the subscription we have says “Award Winning Support” for the package we are on - and three days without a single answer is definitely not award winning - who gave them the award if this is teh case and we need to raise this to their attention.
