Straightforward answers about our booking standards, refund policies, and hotel partner terms.

Are prices on OnStay truly all-inclusive?

Yes. The price you see in the search results includes room rent, GST, and all standard service charges. You will never encounter unexpected fees, linen surcharges, or extra convenience markups at checkout or upon arrival.

How do cancellations and refunds work?

Refundable bookings can be cancelled with a single click inside your OnStay account prior to the free-cancellation deadline. Your refund is automatically processed back to the original payment source (UPI, card, or netbanking) and tracked step-by-step in your account dashboard.

What does the 'Verified' badge specifically mean?

Every verified property is personally inspected by an authorized OnStay field auditor who runs a 50-point checklist. This covers hygienic fresh linen, sanitized private bathrooms, functional air conditioning and hot water, high-speed Wi-Fi (benchmarked live), and electrical safety.

How and when do hotel owners get paid?

Hotel payouts are settled directly to the owner's linked bank account on a bi-weekly cycle with zero hidden deductions. We provide an itemized reconciliation sheet showing guest name, room tariff, and our fixed 12-15% commission. T+1 next-day payout is currently in testing.

What is the check-in process and are local IDs accepted?

Check-in takes under two minutes. Present your booking confirmation SMS or voucher along with any government-approved photo ID (such as Aadhaar, driving licence, or passport). Hotels tagged with our 'Local ID Accepted' and 'Couple Friendly' filters welcome guests without unnecessary questioning.
