What is TownMate?
Problem faced by students
One of the biggest problems students face while living in a hostel or shared room is not being able to find a roommate who matches their vibe, habits, and interests. Mismatched roommates often lead to conflicts over cleanliness, study schedules, social life, and personal boundaries, making student life stressful. Finding someone with similar interests and lifestyle is usually based on luck. Townmate solves this problem by helping students connect with potential hostel roommates based on shared interests, preferences, and living habits. With townmate, students can choose roommates who match their vibe, creating a comfortable and positive living environment. Townmate makes hostel living better for students.
Trust issues with random listing
Many students face trust issues when searching for hostel rooms or roommates due to random allotments, fake listings, and lack of transparency. Often, students are assigned roommates without any background information, leading to uncomfortable living situations. Online listings can also be outdated, misleading, or posted by unreliable sources, making it difficult to trust accommodation options. Townmate addresses these trust issues by offering verified listings and genuine student profiles. With townmate, students can view accurate information, connect directly with potential roommates, and make confident decisions. Townmate creates a safe and transparent platform that students can trust for hostel and shared living solutions.
