Room Types are marketing descriptions. (Room Type is a label that can be= changed to suit your property, i.e., Suites, Dorm Beds, Camp Sites, Holida= y Units, Rooms, etc.) You can have as many Room Types as needed. Room Types= normally have consistent values; maximum guest capacity, number of beds, a= picture, descriptions, amenities and rate. If Rooms don't all match a Room= Type's criteria, then you may need to create additional Room Type= s. It is not unusual to have Room Types with Rooms that are very similar, b= ut slightly different.
Most Room Types are 'private rooms' where 1 booking occupies the entire ro=
om. A Hostel may sell beds in Share Rooms or Dorm Room. If you sell Beds, t=
hen you need to create a Room Type called Dorm Bed; then every bed in the r=
oom would be a treated like a 'room' for inventory management. Then, you se=
t the capacity of a "Dorm Bed" to 1. Guests will then make group bookings; =
booking as many Dorm Beds as needed. If you're unsure, ring support and let=
us help you.
Each Room Types has an inventory of rooms.It is not be necessary, and may =
not be beneficial, to add every room to your inventory. If you have too few=
rooms this will limit your ability to sell. If you are unfamiliar with the=
'Class' or 'Quality', simply make your best judgement. There is no empiric=
al definition of these terms, so use your best professional judgement.
There is a sort order field on the room type screen. This sort is used to =
place room types with low numbers at the top of the booking engine results =
screen. If many room types have the same sort number then the system will s=
ort alphabetically.
