How FreshLinen compares
FreshLinen is a digital welcome book for vacation rentals. So are most of the tools below. Two things set them apart: how you pay, and what your guests see. FreshLinen is one flat price for every property on your account, and a guest reading your book never sees anything for sale. Every other tool here prices per property, or monetizes the guest's screen, or both.
| Service | Price for one property | On the guest's screen |
|---|---|---|
| FreshLinen | $49.99 a year, flat, every property | Only the host's own content |
| Touch Stay | Free up to 20 guest views a month, or from $99 a year, per property | Upsell store on every plan, 2 to 3% to Touch Stay |
| Hostfully Guidebooks | Free with ads, or about $120 a year | Sponsored ads on free books, 1% on upsells |
| YourWelcome | $449.99 a year, per property, includes a tablet | Tablet built around guest services |
Competitor prices checked October 2026 from their public pricing pages, except Hostfully's paid price, which comes from review sites. Where each tool is ahead of FreshLinen is covered honestly on its own page below.
