1 · A booking arrives from your booking channels
The reservation syncs automatically. The guest receives their check-in link on the channel they prefer, 48–72h before arrival — nothing for your staff to send.
See the whole receptionless journey — without booking a call
EZ2Stay is self-serve, so the demo is too. In 10 minutes you can follow the exact journey your guests get: a check-in link 48–72 hours before arrival, a 3-minute online check-in with ID and selfie verification, and a personal 4-digit code that opens all 4 zones — gate, entrance, dorm and locker. Then start a 14-day free trial, no card required.

2 · The guest checks in online in ~3 minutes
Details, payment of city tax and extras, ID document, verification selfie (deleted ≤30 days after checkout — not configurable), digital signature on your house rules.
3 · Codes activate at check-in time
One personal 4-digit code per guest, valid on the gate, the entrance and their dorm — active exactly for their stay window. No key handover, no front desk.
4 · You run everything from your phone
Arrivals, check-in progress, payments, lock alerts and per-dorm cleaning live in a mobile admin. The pilot — Popcorn Hostel Bucharest — runs 15 smart locks this way in production.
Frequently asked questions about EZ2Stay for hostels
Can I get a live demo with a person?
EZ2Stay is built receptionless end to end — including sales. The trial IS the demo: 14 days of the full platform on your own data. If you get stuck, support answers by email.
Do I need hardware to try it?
No. You can run the whole trial — check-in flow, admin, cleaning board — without smart locks. TTLock hardware only matters when you decide to go keyless.
How long does setup take?
Connecting your booking channels and Stripe takes minutes; a typical hostel is fully live in 1–2 weeks, including locks.
