Main Features

Searching for a room

Urcheckin uses Google APIs to deliver an excellent experience of using maps. The developers used these APIs to spot all the properties from the Urcheckin’s database and let users choose the appropriate place to stay.

Make offer

An user is allowed to make an offer to a host to get a cheaper rate to rent the room he/she wants.

Building in-app communication channel

It is necessary to give both parties an additional channel for keeping in touch. A real-time chat was a perfect fit for fulfilling that need. With its help, guests and hosts can both message each other to specify details.
