Roomsto

Roomsto is an online platform designed to connect individuals and businesses with temporary accommodation solutions. Launched in 2016, the service operates primarily in Europe, offering a range of short-term rental options such as apartments, studios, and entire homes. It caters to travelers, digital nomads, and professionals seeking flexible housing arrangements, often for periods ranging from a few days to several months.

The platform functions similarly to traditional rental websites but emphasizes longer-term stays compared to short-term vacation rentals like Airbnb. Users can browse listings filtered by location, price, duration, and amenities, such as Wi-Fi, parking, and furnished spaces. Roomsto also provides tools for managing bookings, including online payments and digital contracts, streamlining the rental process for both hosts and guests.

Hosts on Roomsto include property owners, real estate agencies, and corporate housing providers, ensuring a diverse inventory of listings. The platform charges a service fee to hosts, typically a percentage of the rental rate, while guests may incur additional costs depending on the booking terms. Roomsto emphasizes transparency, requiring hosts to provide detailed information about their properties, including photos, descriptions, and pricing structures.

The company operates under a business model focused on sustainability and urban living, encouraging users to opt for longer-term rentals over traditional hotels. Roomsto has expanded its presence in cities across Europe, including major hubs like Berlin, Paris, and Amsterdam, reflecting growing demand for flexible housing solutions in urban environments. The platform also offers customer support and assistance for users navigating local regulations and rental agreements.
