Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Residency hotel at none against Coastals's shown. Residency hotel also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Coastals's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 12 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
