They absolutely need to bring back the ability to create lists and save favorites. This is how I plan my trips ahead of time, and I've actually lost a ton of my research for a trip I've got coming up next week. I have no idea why they would have removed this. You also can't see a map of locations anymore, so it's fairly useless to try and book a decent location without having something else open to check every single one. I'll be using a different app until they fix this.

There's no way to see past/completed bookings and see whether or not the amounts (deposit, full payment, etc.) Have been properly paid and settled in full. SOOO much financial clarity, detail, and TRANSPARENCY lacking in the app, it's mind boggling. Needs to be fixed urgently. Also: customer service is abysmal - I've been waiting weeks for a response on improper charges made to my debit card and NADA.

The app itself is OK, although I regularly struggle to successfully book places. It just shows the processing page and then seems to time out. I also get very annoyed when I get app notifications for staying in places or cities when I dont book. Particularly given that I often wanted to book, but was unable to. So the fact that I cant use it, and then get pestered for not using it results in it getting 1 star.

Trying to create a password for my account, they send me an email to click a link. I click it and the link is broken, it doesn't work. In their email, they list a customer service email address, so I write them an email. I get an automated response that the email address they JUST provided me no longer works and I won't receive a response! I am literally unable to create an account.

The app doesn't let me access the chats or events despite my stay being in the 14 day window. I've contacted customer support and although they've tried to work the problem at first they've seem to have given up. This is extremely disappointing because this was a huge reason for booking through hostel world. Was hoping to make friends on my trips. I should've just booked directly with each hostel and saved money.

Hostel world is not allowing me to sign up in the app. when i try to sign up it says I already have an account associated with that email. and when I try to login it shows it doesn't match any account all over the app. i have tried with all my email accounts it just won't budge. it's irritating now. I have been trying it since yesterday but all in vain.
