Book by the Hour.
I run a photo studio rental space business with 4 unique studios that require the entire management portfolio of Hostfully. The only caveat is that I need bookings by the hour rather than the day.
Our system is currently using a hodge podge of applications to create our user experience. It would be wonderful to use a singular platform for communicating and hosting our studio renters. I wonder how simple a customer calendar solution could be for this? My requirements are the following:
Replace the check-in/check-out day with a check in by the hour, check out by the hour.

QR Codes for Direct Booking Site
It would be helpful to have a QR code to display in our homes so guests can scan and book again, directly on our website.
I understand you have a QR code for the guidebooks, so why not for the websites?2 votesThank you for the suggestion - we'll certainly consider it. In the meantime, you can generate QR codes for free using https://www.qr-code-generator.com/

DBS hero image to look the same on webpage and phone
It would be nice if the hero image on the webpage worked with the phone image. I created a hero image in Canva. Looks good on webpage, but really bad when you pull up DBS on phone.

Re-ordering of listings on Direct Book Site.
Right now, one of our client's properties that we manage is listed at the bottom of the direct book site on the left side when scrolling properties. While our properties that we own are listed above. I'd like to be able to move this property up the left side that shows all properties.

Make First Name and Last Name Mandatory for New Booking
We just had a guest book without entering their last name. Can you update this so the first name / last name are mandatory for a new booking?

Allow potential guests to get quote without putting in email, etc.
Currently, guests must put their name and email to be able to get a quote. This is prohibiting business as it is easier to go to Airbnb or VRBO to run numbers on homes...and then they may find a different home. I would love the option to be able to turn this feature off and only collect guest information when they actually book. Thank you for your consideration.

Show length of stay discount on itemized total
Please include a line item in the computation that shows the long stay discount. Airbnb does this and it is helpful for the guest to see that they benefited from a long stay discount. Otherwise both the guest and the host are guessing whether the length of stay discount was included in the calculation.

Show nightly rate in message to guests showing booking options
When you do a query for certain dates and click on "email property list" I do not like how it gives a total. I want it to show the nightly rate in the email instead.

Allow booking guests to filter properties by amenity
After guest count (i.e. finding a place large enough for their group) the next most important thing to a would-be guest when searching for a property is that it has the amenities they are looking for. Right now, people have no way of knowing which properties have their preferred amenities other than clicking into each property and searching around for it in the listing details or photos. This is painful and makes for a poor experience!
Guests need to be able to filter properties based on amenities. To avoid having that get too unruly, you could start with just the…

Ability to Blacklist email addresses to prevent re-booking of problem guests
Similar requests have been made on this portal, and marked as "functionality already exists." However no explanation has been provided, and as far as I can tell there is no documentation on how to accomplish this.
There is a way to add tags to guests in the "my-clients" page, but this tag does not seem to do anything. It is not visible on the guests reservation, and is not a filterable variable for reporting, or a triggerable element for messaging. Therefore the ability to simply tag guests is entirely worthless.
What is needed is a system where you can flag…

Discount Codes - Allow for discount codes to also apply to cleaning fees, etc.
Specifically, we have owners who like to offer gifted stays for for friends/ family and they want to pay for cleaning too. When we create discount codes for them to easily book, we want to have the option to not have the guest pay a cleaning fee as well.

Allow discount codes to be editable and be able to create excluded dates within them.
Currently, discount codes are not editable, which means you would have to delete one and recreate it - but if you try to use the same code, it won't allow it.
It would also be extremely beneficial if you could make discount codes for a long period of time but with exclusions, for example:
If I created an off peak promotion and I wanted it to be valid between October 1st - April 1st but I did not want it valid for peak holidays like Christmas/New Year (16th Dec - 2nd Jan), February half term or Halloween. It would be…5 votes -
Show property price in the list view once dates and guest count have been entered
Right now prospective guests are REALLY struggling to understand how much our properties cost. It's the number one question we get from people who are searching on our direct booking site.
The problem is that there is no way to compare prices across properties other than drilling down into several property pages open in several tabs and entering dates and guest count info in each one.
It would be much easier to enter the dates and guest count once in the main search and see the total displayed under each property's tile. It's nice that there's already the ability to…

Expand length of the Direct Booking Site "Review Response" field
As a PM I would like to have up to 500 characters to respond to a guest review so that I can be very detailed about my response. Right now, there's a limit of 255 characters.

Custom order for Listing Description Sections
Make all sections of a listing page as moveable widgets so that an operator/manager can decide how to order the information on public listing page. This will greatly improve marketability and ensure that the information that guests find most important is closest to the top. For instance, after "Description" should come "The Space," "The Neighborhood," and then "Other Things to Note" far below the fold -- closer to the House Rules Section.

Improve how Direct Booking Site is displayed vertically on mobile device
When I view the Direct Booking Site on mobile device vertically, I can't scroll down to see the list of my properties. It's good in horizontal view though.

Discount code - Have Validity Range Include Start and End Dates
As a VRM I would like the discount code dates ranges to be inclusive of the start and end dates so that it is very clear to me what the valid dates are.
Right now, the valid date range doesn't include the Start and End dates.

Customize Maximum Stay Message and be Visible
When a guest goes to book on the direct booking site, if they enter a date range that goes beyond the Maximum Night stay (property Main Settings), then hit Book Now, they get this message: Maximum stay requirement is not met. That does not specify the requirement, the way the Min Stay is displayed.
It would also be great to be able to customize a message there, and have it displayed before they hit book now, so they can see that requirement.
Ex., the max stay is 30 days, but we want to include a message that states something like,…1 vote -
