The Room status lets you keep a live status of rooms to help housekeeping communicate with the front desk. Beside each room name on the grid, Preno will display the room's current room status. This is a clear indicator to you and your team if a room is ready for it's next occupant.
Rooms status Key:
Green - Clean
Blue - Occupied
Red - Dirty
Orange - Cleaning
Black - Out of order
How to change room status
You can bulk update room statuses which will save your team a lot of time especially if you need to update a number of rooms at once. To do this:
From the Home page, above the grid, click on 'Update room status'
Select the rooms you would like to update
From the dropdown, choose the new status you would like and click 'Update'
You can also manually change the status of a room on the grid by:
Clicking on the Room tile
Clicking the current status of the room
Choosing the new status from the drop down
Then select 'Update' and the new status will be applied.
A change log is available to keep track of room status changes per user
The status can also be changed on the Housekeeping report by clicking on the status to the left of the room. The selectable options for status are limited on the Housekeeping report to Clean, Cleaning and Dirty.
The status will change automatically through the following flow:
The room is clean by default
When a guest checks in, the room will become occupied
When a guest checks out, the room becomes dirty
When a housekeeper cleans the room, they should change status to “Cleaning” manually
When they are finished cleaning, the housekeeping team can change the status to “Clean” to indicate the room is ready for the next guest
Moving Rooms
If you move a booking from one room to another, the original room will become "Dirty", and the status of the new room will change to "Occupied".
Out of Order
When the room status is 'out of order' the room is still available to be booked online unless you apply a room closure to it.
