Hoteliers say

Preno is praised for lowering PMS costs while keeping operations simple for small hotels and motels: users say it’s easy to learn, speeds up staff workflows, and improves housekeeping, billing, reporting, and multi-property transfers. Strong Xero/Lightspeed integrations and responsive support help reduce admin work and keep costs and guest experience under control, though some users want better UI, more payment options, deeper customization, and stronger after-hours support.
