The client's goal

The idea for the project originated at Webdelo. We had the idea to create an accommodation booking service in Bulgaria with the potential to scale to other countries.

The goal is to provide the highest quality service by focusing efforts on just one country. The unique aspect of this project is that most property owners do not reside in Bulgaria, so they need assistance with check-ins, check-outs, and apartment cleaning. Website users have access to a wide range of properties, and the service earns a percentage from each successful booking.

Solution

The solution was the development of a service for booking apartments and rooms in Bulgaria. The service connects property owners and guests, providing the following functionalities:

  • Communication with property owners through the website
  • Calendar and booking of available dates
  • Ability to set prices for different seasonal periods, block specific dates in the calendar
  • Management of multiple properties by a single owner
  • Online payment with full or partial payment. For partial payments, the client completes the remaining balance upon check-in.
  • Refund system for standard (short-term rental) and long-term conditions (6 months or more)
  • Integration with social networks
  • Moderation of new listings
  • Messaging with apartment owners through the website, similar to Airbnb. Additional contact details are provided after booking payment.
  • Three user interfaces: for property owners, guests, and administrators.
  • The admin interface includes a built-in call center.

Design

The website design extends beyond just a few types of pages visible to visitors. We meticulously crafted the design of personal accounts for both guests and property owners.

The mobile and desktop versions are developed based on UX audit data. The entire booking process can be navigated independently by the user. For instance, the search page displays each apartment on the site map and features convenient filtering options based on 20 parameters. On the apartment page, we introduced a user-friendly booking form, infographics to illustrate apartment characteristics, and a display of reviews.

During development, we incorporated two user journey scenarios:
  • Through searching for available dates with the option to filter results.
  • Through curated selections of apartments - based on locations, budget, and living space (especially relevant as we curated selections based on our experience).

Web development

We utilized a custom PHP framework that encompasses all the necessary tools for the core system, ensuring stability and high performance. The use of Angular enabled us to create an interactive user interface, providing a pleasant user experience on the website. To optimize and cache data, we implemented Memcached and also leveraged the Laravel framework as an API service to ensure reliable integration with external systems. This technology stack guarantees reliability, performance, and facilitates our clients in conveniently leasing and renting properties.
