    Compare tools for cleaning between stays — Cleanster vs Properly

    Follow one booking from checkout to the next guest arrival. Check how it creates a job, who gets the task and how you see the result. Keep software fees separate from cleaning labor. If you need a local cleaner, confirm service in your area before choosing a tool.

    Cleanster: what to consider

    Check how booking imports reach the cleaning schedule. If you need a cleaner, check for help in your area. Ask about labor, booking and cancellation fees as well as the software price. Read the Cleanster profile for its plans and requirements.

    Properly: what to consider

    Check the plan and link you need. Pro’s direct link is separate from a calendar feed. For Cohost Pro, check the property count needed, how long you must stay and the setup fees. Read the Properly profile for its plans and requirements.

    Explore all cleaning and turnover options, how to automate cleaning schedules, software and managed cleaning services to continue your shortlist.

    Common questions

    What should I check before using Cleanster and Properly for cleaning between stays?

    Test what happens when a guest changes, cancels or books a stay at short notice. Check that the right person sees the job. Agree who checks for missing work and adds a job when needed. Linking a calendar does not settle who will do that.

    How should I check completed work with Cleanster and Properly?

    Choose the photos and tasks that matter for each home. Decide who checks them and who handles a problem. A task marked done in an app is not proof that a separate inspector checked the home.

    Where should I check the full cost of a Cleanster booking?

    Marketplace bookings add a $3 fee to the cleaner’s price. Paying your own cleaner through the app costs 5% plus $3 per booking. Check the full price before you confirm. The site does not say which dollar currency applies.

    Can a co-host Airbnb account import bookings into Properly?

    Properly’s Airbnb support guide says to connect the property’s main account. A co-host login can connect without bringing in bookings. The person named as main host may not own that account. Check which login owns the listing.
