The Partee alternative for when you want everything automated
Partee is one of the cheapest apps for the Spanish traveller report — and for some accommodations it is enough. This honest comparison helps you figure out whether you are one of them, or whether a full platform pays for itself.
In short: Partee or BookCheckin?
If your only need is generating and filing the traveller report, Partee is probably the cheapest option — per its Google Play listing (consulted July 2026) it offers a free month and plans from €1.49/month — and we will not hide it. BookCheckin costs more, from €3/property/month, because it does more: pre-arrival online check-in, PMS and smart-lock integrations, DNI/NIE/passport scanning, and cancellation of already-filed reports. The fair comparison is not price versus price but price versus hours of manual work removed: for a single accommodation with few bookings and in-person key handover, Partee is enough; with volume, several channels, and arrivals at any hour, the full platform pays for itself.
What Partee and BookCheckin have in common
Partee is a traveller-registration app known for its very low entry price, popular among small tourist establishments in Spain. Like BookCheckin, it lets you register guests and generate the traveller report required by RD 933/2021, leaving paper forms behind.
Both solve the basic legal obligation. The question that actually decides the purchase is a different one: how much manual work is still on you after you are compliant? That is where the two products diverge completely.
Pricing compared: Partee vs BookCheckin
According to its public Google Play listing (consulted in July 2026), Partee offers a free month and plans from €1.49 per month. Let us say it plainly: if your only need is generating and filing the traveller report, Partee is probably the cheapest option on the market, and we are not going to pretend otherwise.
BookCheckin costs more — from €3 per property per month — because it does more: pre-arrival online check-in, sync with your PMS and channels, virtual keys with smart locks, and cancellation of already-filed reports. The fair comparison is not price against price, but price against hours of work removed.

Reviews: comparing a budget app with a platform
When reading reviews of Partee, BookCheckin, or any other traveller-registration tool, the usual mistake is comparing average scores of products playing in different leagues. A €1.49-per-month app and a full automation platform attract users with different expectations, and their reviews reflect that.
The useful questions are operational: what do recent reviews say about SES Hospedajes errors and how they get resolved? Does support answer when a report is rejected on a Friday evening? Do guests complete the process on their own, or do you end up chasing them? SES Hospedajes failures are real — rejected postal codes, correctable states, expiring credentials — and the difference between tools is who resolves them for you.
BookCheckin operates those cases daily: more than 2,500 reports accepted in production, error handling built from real incidents, and the ability to cancel or correct an already-filed report without opening a ticket.
Why accommodations choose BookCheckin
BookCheckin makes sense when the goal stops being "be compliant" and becomes "make it all run on its own".
- ✓A complete online check-in flow: the guest registers and signs before arrival, from their phone and in their language.
- ✓Native PMS integrations (Amenitiz, Cloudbeds, Hostaway) and sync with Booking.com and Airbnb: every booking generates its link automatically.
- ✓Self check-in with Nuki, TTLock, and igloohome smart locks, with virtual keys conditional on completed registration.
- ✓AI scanning of DNI, NIE, and passport with automatic identity-data validation.
- ✓Automatic SES Hospedajes filing with receipts, error handling, and cancellation of already-filed reports.
- ✓Multi-property and multi-company structure for growing managers, with team roles.
- ✓Automated guest messaging and tourist-tax calculation.
When Partee may be enough
If you manage a single accommodation, receive few bookings, hand over keys in person, and do not use a PMS, a budget traveller-report app may well cover your case — and at its published price, Partee is hard to beat in that scenario.
The category change comes with volume: when bookings arrive through several channels, guests show up at any hour, and every minute of manual work multiplies by your property count. At that point, the savings of a cheap app get eaten by the time your team keeps putting in.
Our suggestion is simple: add up how many hours a month you currently spend on registrations, reports, and keys. If the number makes you uncomfortable, try BookCheckin free for 3 months and run the count again.
How to migrate from Partee to BookCheckin
Migrating requires no import: configure your properties and SES Hospedajes credentials in BookCheckin, verify a real filing, and overlap both tools for a few days before closing the previous one.
- 1
Keep your SES Hospedajes credentials at hand
The establishment code and landlord credentials are yours and work with any tool. There is no migration without them — locate them first.
- 2
Create your BookCheckin account and add your accommodations
Sign-up is self-serve and free for 3 months, so the overlap period with your current subscription costs you nothing.
- 3
Connect your bookings
If you use Amenitiz, Cloudbeds, or Hostaway, enable the integration; if not, create check-in links from the dashboard. Every new booking is covered automatically.
- 4
Verify an accepted report with its receipt
Complete a trial check-in and confirm in the dashboard that SES Hospedajes accepts the report and the receipt is archived before changing anything else.
- 5
Overlap a few days and close the previous app
Keep both tools through several arrivals. Once everything works with real bookings, save your history and cancel the old subscription per its terms.
Frequently asked questions
Is BookCheckin a Partee alternative?+
Yes. BookCheckin covers what a traveller-report app does — guest registration and SES Hospedajes filing — and adds pre-arrival online check-in, PMS and smart-lock integrations, identity verification, cancellation of filed reports, and a multi-company structure for managers.
Why choose BookCheckin if Partee is cheaper?+
Because the tool’s price is not the total cost: you have to add the hours of manual work it leaves on your plate. If you only need the report, Partee is cheaper. If you want bookings, registration, report, and keys to run on their own, BookCheckin removes work a basic app does not touch.
How much does each one cost?+
According to its Google Play listing (July 2026), Partee offers a free month and plans from €1.49/month. BookCheckin publishes three plans from €3/property/month, with the first 3 months free, automatic volume discounts, and no per-check-in or per-guest fees.
Does BookCheckin work for small accommodations?+
Yes. BookCheckin works from a single property, with no minimums or lock-in, and volume discounts apply automatically if you grow. Many customers start with just one accommodation.
Is it hard to switch from Partee to BookCheckin?+
No. There is no data to migrate from the previous app: register your properties and SES Hospedajes credentials, verify a test report with its receipt, and keep both tools in parallel for a few days before cancelling the old one.
What about Catalonia and the Basque Country?+
Both regions run their own registries (Mossos d’Esquadra and Ertzaintza), separate from the national SES Hospedajes. BookCheckin digitises guest data collection and signature, and you submit the regional report yourself.
Does Partee work with SES Hospedajes?+
Yes. According to its public information (consulted July 2026), Partee generates the traveller report and files it automatically with SES Hospedajes (and, per its listing, with Mossos d’Esquadra and Ertzaintza too). BookCheckin files the report with the national SES Hospedajes; in Catalonia and the Basque Country we digitise data collection and signature, but you submit the regional report yourself. Always confirm current terms on each provider’s website.
Where can I read Partee reviews?+
Partee has reviews and ratings on its Google Play and App Store listings (consulted July 2026), where it also publishes its price and free month. These are reviews of a budget app: weigh them against what you actually need — PMS integration, smart locks, report cancellation — before deciding.
Exactly how much does Partee cost?+
According to its Google Play listing (consulted July 2026), Partee offers a free month and plans from €1.49 per month; the specific tiers may vary by number of reports or properties, so confirm the current figure on its listing. BookCheckin costs from €3/property/month with the first 3 months free, and includes online check-in, PMS, smart locks, and report cancellation.
How do I migrate from Partee to BookCheckin without losing my reports?+
Your already-filed reports are recorded in SES Hospedajes with their receipts, so they are not lost when you switch apps; save or export from Partee any history you want to keep. In BookCheckin you register your properties and SES credentials, verify a test report, and keep both tools running in parallel for a few days before cancelling Partee.
