I used to love this app, but it just updated and seems to have gotten rid of all the features I loved the most. You can no longer save favorites or make lists of hostels which is SO frustrating. Also, you used to be able to click the location and read written directions on how to get to the hostel from the owners before you book. It was so helpful seeing thos instructions before booking, not just having Google maps.

They absolutely need to bring back the ability to create lists and save favorites. This is how I plan my trips ahead of time, and I've actually lost a ton of my research for a trip I've got coming up next week. I have no idea why they would have removed this. You also can't see a map of locations anymore, so it's fairly useless to try and book a decent location without having something else open to check every single one. I'll be using a different app until they fix this.

Used to be a big fan of this app, but suddenly all my lists for planning upcoming trips are gone--i had spent hours reviewing properties & bookmarking the best places. Just gone & I need to book in the next few days! SO FRUSTRATING! Can no longer view any of the properties I've stayed at previously or even the cities or countries. Clearly didn't care at all about the user's needs when designing this garbage update. I dont have any reason to use this app anymore. I'll look for something else.

I used to love this app and used it consistently for travel throughout 2019 and beyond till now. They recently did an overhaul of the app design and they took away Favoriting and having lists of hostels of the ones you favorited. It now makes it so much more difficult to keep track of the ones you want to stay in, the ones you liked when reading descriptions, and harder to narrow down where to stay when you can't click the simple heart to favorite a hostel and see it when scrolling through.

The app itself is OK, although I regularly struggle to successfully book places. It just shows the processing page and then seems to time out. I also get very annoyed when I get app notifications for staying in places or cities when I dont book. Particularly given that I often wanted to book, but was unable to. So the fact that I cant use it, and then get pestered for not using it results in it getting 1 star.

There's no way to see past/completed bookings and see whether or not the amounts (deposit, full payment, etc.) Have been properly paid and settled in full. SOOO much financial clarity, detail, and TRANSPARENCY lacking in the app, it's mind boggling. Needs to be fixed urgently. Also: customer service is abysmal - I've been waiting weeks for a response on improper charges made to my debit card and NADA.
