Why Hostayl

Run your hostel without registers and endless phone calls

Hostayl by Group Takey is a web-based Hostel & PG Management Software for PGs, hostels, colleges and hostel chains. Rooms, residents, rent, gate entry and exit, mess and complaints all work on one platform.

There is nothing to install. Owners and wardens use the admin panel, guards use the gate app, residents and parents use their own apps — on any phone, tablet or PC — while sensitive data like Aadhaar stays encrypted.
