How is Globostay different?
We understand that it is difficult to trust a hotel or BnB or serviced apartment when you are coming to a new city for the first time. The photos on the websites are rosy but the state of the actual room is really bad in most of the cases. Security is a very big concern which is often overlooked.
We ensure that every property we recommend to the guest is screened by our team, before any bookings are sent to it. We do not pick properties just by name, flashy looks, snazzy boards etc, we:
- meet the owner personally to ensure that he/she is a genuine person and understands that service comes first.
- make sure that the management is sensitive to the guests need.
- ensure that property is neat, clean and well maintained.
- conduct surprise visits every month to check on the quality of service.
- keep in touch with the guest to obtain constant feedback of the service being provided to him/her.
It is our team on the field that gives us the edge over all other hospitality portals.
So, you mean to say, Globostay is a travel agent/portal?
Yes and no. Globostay is not just a travel portal. We provide the following services:
- Connecting the guest to the accommodation.
- Marketing aid to property owners.
- Management solutions to the property owners.
- Housekeeping solutions for any property.
- Custom accommodations for special needs of the guest.
So yes, part of our job is that of a travel agent, however, in totality we are a hospitality company.
Hmm but what about your staff? I don’t want goons to take me on site visits in a new city when I am looking for service apartments!
Our team consists of:
- Qualified professionals from the hospitality industry who are on the field most of the time.
- IT professionals to run our online operations and virtual reception.
- Experienced professionals from the retail and real estate sectors who get the best prices for you.
OK! so how would you summarize Globostay?
In short, we are a hospitality company, here to revolutionize the budget accommodation sector without compromising on service, quality and the budget itself!
