Cloudbeds’ reliability and ease-of-use help drive growth for this group of hostels

ITH Hostels and Eco Lodging operates 9 different properties throughout the United States including hostels and vacation rentals. Founders James and Bobby aimed to offer guests the best possible budget accommodation and provide guests the ultimate experience. The International Travelers House concept was created for travelers allowing them to meet and experience other cultures from around the world all under one roof.

Why it matters: ITH Hostels has grown to become a premium backpacker hostel with first class hostel amenities and staffed by locals who know the destinations first-hand.

Bobby and James continue to grow and have an ambitious vision to expand both domestically and internationally.

Top 3 Core Objectives: As they expanded, ITH Hostels wanted a reliable, cloud-based hostel software that would enable them to scale.

Easy implementation: From the very beginning, Cloudbeds provided extensive help guides, videos, in-app tooltips and their own Cloudbeds customer coach.
Staff training: Because their staff is largely volunteer-based, training continues to be a priority.
Reliabilty: ITH Hotels needed a reliable system that would accompany them as they continued to grow.
