8. Written Communication
Occupancy Report: prepared by a front desk
agent every night, lists the occupied rooms
that night and indicates the rooms expected
to check out the following day (due out).
The executive housekeeper gets this list in the
morning and schedules the rooms for
cleaning.
Housekeeping Status Report: prepared by the
housekeeping department at the end of the
shift, indicates the curent housekeeping status
of each room (the rooms that have been
cleaned that day)
9. based on a physical check of each room.
Room Staus Discrepancy: is a situation in
which the housekeeping department’s
description of a room’s differs from the
front desk’s description of a room.
Keeping room status information up-to-
date requires close coordination
between the front desk and the
housekeeping department. The two most
common systems for tracking current
room status are mechanical room rack
systems and computerized status systems.
10. Rooms Status Definitions
(Rooms status definitions ex. 6, pg 16)
Occupied: A guest is currently registered to
the room.
Complimentary: The room is occupied, but
the guest is assessed no charge for its use.
Stayover: The guest is not cheking out today
and will remain at least one more night.
On-change: The guest has departed, but the
room has not yet been cleaned and readied
for resale.

to be disturbed.

but the bed has not been used.
Skipper: The guest has left the hotel without
making arrangements to settle his/her

Sleeper: The guest has settled his/her
account and left the hotel, but the front
office staff has failed to properly update the
room’s status.
Vacant and ready: The room has been
cleaned and inspected, and is ready for an
arriving guest.
Out-of-order: The room cannot be assigned
to a guest. A room may be out-of-order for
a variety of reasons, including the need for
maintenance, refurbishing, and extensive
cleaning.
12. Lock-out: The room has been locked so that
the guest cannot re-enter until he/she is
cleared by a hotel official.

informing the front office.

time.
