Join Friends of Treebo and be part of India&#8217;s fastest growing community of passionate travellers.<\/p>\n<p>Friends of Treebo earlier allowed mystery auditors to sign up and stay for a free night in return for a reward. While there have been changes now in how audits are conducted, let us understand what Friends of Treebo meant earlier.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TreeboHotels\/videos\/1110951998998078\/\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TreeboHotels\/videos\/1110951998998078\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TreeboHotels\/videos\/1110951998998078\/\">\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Supriya Jha,<\/strong> a 22-year-old girl from a small town, came to Mumbai with big dreams in her eyes. She is a smart, independent and strong woman, yet Mumbai can be intimidating at times.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Not when you have a place to go back to, after a long day, though. That is what she found. Staying in Treebo Hummingbird Suites in Mumbai, it felt like home. The service, the amenities, stellar location all added up to create a great experience for her.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Shristi Goswami<\/strong> had a similar experience in Mumbai. For a person who loves to travel, she found it hard to believe that from now she could stay free when she signed up with Friends of Treebo. Beautiful rooms, fantastic facilities and top-notch service were all that she wanted and got.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Neha <\/strong>went to Bangalore with her family. Her experience was nothing different. Neha was bowled over by the service, the amenities and the cleanliness she saw at Treebo Akshaya Mayflower. Highly impressed by Treebo, she booked Treebo for her parents again when they visited Kolkata. They are not just Friends of Treebo but highly influenced by the secret audit program too. They introduced internal audits in their factory and got immediate results!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Congratulations to Supriya, Shristi and Neha!\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">What is Friends Of Treebo now?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Neha, Shristi and Supriya didn&#8217;t have to do anything special to become a mystery auditor with Treebo. They just had a keen sense and an eye for detail. Friends of Treebo is a crowd-sourced mystery audit program that has over 1700 travel enthusiasts now. They stay in Treebo hotels spread across 120+ cities and give unbiased feedback afterwards. It doesn&#8217;t end there. Members are rewarded for helping Treebo maintain high standards.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">How Does It Work?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">People who wish to be FOTs are supposed to fill out a Google form. After a property is launched these FOTs visit the property in the morning. The early hours help them to judge the breakfast and the dining area as well. The common areas and 2-3 rooms are also audited. This process takes around 2-3 hours. A detailed feedback along with images are submitted via Google form. The feedback helps Treebo to maintain impeccable standards and resolve issues quickly. You can find the Terms &amp; Conditions <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treebo.com\/static\/files\/FriendsofTreebotermsandconditions.pdf\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">What Do You Get From It?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Once the audit is over, members get a certain amount of cash prize. The FOTs also have the freedom to do multiple audits and accumulate several cash prizes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If this does not lure you, then what does?
