Trust

Transparency
Until quite recent time the communication between the hotelier and the guest was possible only via e-mail or phone. Tadays age of social networks involves us to a handier communication. From now on each guest can view the history of his bookings and the reviews about them on one page — in his personal account. There’s no need to search for messages in your mailbox to remember the bookings details. Consequently, the relations between the owner and the guest become Transparent and clear — after reading the reviews about the guest the owners can trust them more.
Responsibility
The guest will face more responsibility for his stay and the relationships with the owner booking an apartment on Dobovo.com. Making a good impression is getting more important – this will be reflected in the profile and will be useful for the guest and the owners. This feature individuates Dobovo from all the other daily rent services in Ukraine, which usually miss that the post-travel feedback is possible also from the hotelier’s side.
Dobovo booking center keeps on working to make the guest’s personal account better. In the profile the guests can view their past and future reservations and leave reviews about the apartments they’ve stayed at. At the moment the loyalty program and the system of clear and handy communication between guest and the owner are being developed. New messaging system will allow the guest to ask the owner and get a prompt reply and the loyalty program is optimized for the regular client who can get the discounts depending on the amount of successful bookings.
Dobovo.com Content manager Anastasia Uvarova shares her impression from new feature:
“New functionality is one more step to the open communication between the apartments owners and their clients. Only the clients could write a review after their stay and thus the hotelier’s opinion was put on the back burner. Now they have the possibility to share the experience they had with the clients and recommend them for the other owners. This will help the guests in future bookings as the owners will know they are dealing with the proved clients.”
Dobovo provides daily rent service from 2010 and keeps improving booking the apartments for daily rent service. Over 2300 hoteliers cooperate with the company. Today around 8 thousand apartments are listed. The unique distinguishing feature of Dobovo is the possibility to make real reviews about the apartments and there are over 13 thousands added already.
Dobovo booking center informs about specifics of booking in the period of holidays in May. This month Ukrainians will have 4 days-off in the beginning — on 1st, 2nd, 3d, 4th, and in the middle — on 9th and 11th of May. Such a big amount of free days increases the interest to domestic tourism and all the citizens of Ukraine more often choose the most popular routes as a vacation idea.
The most popular cities are still Kiyiv, Lviv and Odessa — tourists keep choosing it from year to year to spend their holidays. This is determined by well-developed infrastructure and wide variety of places to visit. These cities are popular among families, couples and groups of friends. Our website statistics shows that in May the biggest demand is in Lviv — the amount of requests is almost twice bigger than in Kiyiv which is only on the third place. Odessa is on the second with 10% bookings than in Kiyiv.
Most of the tourists choose the first days of May to travel when the amount of free days in bigger. The average amount of nights per booking in Kiyiv is 3 and for Lviv and Odessa — one night more. Such a tendency is connected to the fact that the average price per night for an apartment for daily rent is higher in Kiyiv than in other cities. For example, apartment for daily rent in Odessa will cost 600 UAH per night, in Lviv — 700 and average price in Kiev will vary around 850 UAH per night.
First of all tourism boom influences the price — the hoteliers increase the prices for the apartments at least 1,5 — 2 times. Also, you should be ready to the fact that it’s almost impossible to book an apartment for one or two nights as almost all the hoteliers restrict the minimum nights for booking. Dobovo recommends booking apartments with actual for the season price and availability calendar.
Such apartments are always in the beginning of the search results and are marked as «Instant booking». Such a choice will guarantee the successful accommodation and ensure from any risks while the check in and stay as the hoteliers who keep their availability calendar up-to-date are always sure when the apartment is actually free and what the price would be.
Here what our Account manager Alexandra says about May high season:
«Beginning of May is the hottest period for the tourism. In these days demand is always outstripping supply which always cause essential increase in price for accommodation. Usually the prices for apartments for daily rent in the most popular cities as Kiyiv, Lviv and Odessa grew at least twice and the bookings for at least three days were accepted. This year despite a lot of requests from the clients the hoteliers change the price more carefully. As a result most of the customers have already found apartments for a reasonable price even for the high season.»
