HostAureaHostAurea vs paper and phone
Paper works. Up to 10 rooms.
Paper register, cleaning slips, phone between desk and floors: the oldest system in the world. And the one that scales worst.
| HostAurea | paper and phone | |
|---|---|---|
| Who booked what | Shared timeline, always updated | Known by whoever wrote the sheet |
| Ready rooms | Housekeeper verification on smartphone | A call to the maid |
| Shifts and absences | Tasks follow the room, not the person | If whoever knows is missing, everything stops |
| Guest history | Preferences and stays always available | In the memory of whoever was there |
| Cost | Tailored quote | Pen and paper, plus the wasted hours |
The verdict
With 4-5 rooms and family management, paper and phone are enough. As soon as seasonal staff, shifts or a second person at reception enter, you need a shared system. HostAurea takes an afternoon to learn.

Will my senior staff learn to use it?
The interface is built for workers, not IT people: guided setup and included training.
What if there's no internet?
You need connection, like for the OTA extranets you already use. The PWA works even on little bandwidth.
