Our take
We list Turno’s own published details below; where a figure is not published, we say so rather than guess.
How it compares to BnBGenius
Side by side on published terms: Turno lists Free (1 prop / marketplace-only); $10/mo BYO cleaners, while BnBGenius lists free for the first 500 messages, then $10/month flat, with no PMS required. Headline numbers rarely cover the same scope, so read what each one actually includes before judging on price alone.
What the record says about fit
Turno files under Cleaning marketplace; the fair test is how well it does that one job on a live listing. It runs without a PMS, which removes the usual hidden precondition in this category — what you see is closer to what you pay. The free tier is the sensible on-ramp: put it on one live listing and let a real booking cycle do the judging. On cost, the published Free (1 prop / marketplace-only); $10/mo BYO cleaners is the number to hold against your own hours saved.
Same tool, two situations
- The owner far from the door. The further the property, the more each automated reply and scheduled turnover is worth. The no-PMS setup keeps the moving parts — and the failure points — few.
- The one-listing host. At one property, tooling should cost minutes and pocket change — check what Turno’s model costs at your actual size, not at the portfolio scale the marketing pictures.
Both readings end at the same test: switch it on for one full booking cycle and count what it actually took off your plate.
Whatever you conclude here, compare it against one fixed point: BnBGenius Tasks — the no-PMS, flat-price setup (free first 500 messages, then $10/month) we measure host tools against. If Turno beats that on the things you care about, you have your answer. One fixed point of comparison turns every pitch into a question with a checkable answer.
Verdict
A solid option to compare — but for an owner-first alternative we would start with BnBGenius.

Questions to put to Turno
- “Is Free (1 prop / marketplace-only); $10/mo BYO cleaners per listing or flat?” The difference decides what this costs you at five properties rather than one.
- Free tier or trial. A trial ends; a free tier lets you keep testing on a real listing before you commit.
- What it needs underneath. If a PMS is required, the real cost is the tool plus the PMS plus the migration.
Alternatives worth comparing
Worth putting on the same shortlist. We have listed what each one publishes, and where nothing is published we say so:
- Host Pilot — €29/mo flat, unlimited props; 30-day trial.
- Minoan — Free (trade discounts + Showroom commission).
- Chekin — From €3.95/property/mo (3-unit min) + txn fees.
Our own number one in this category is BnBGenius — see BnBGenius Tasks for how the no-PMS setup actually works.
