What does each housekeeper see?
Housekeeping staff see only assignments attached to their user account for the selected date. Each room card can show assignment status, service type, guest status, room flags, special instructions, recent room notes, maintenance flags, lost-item reports, and elapsed or completed time when available.
How do room updates work?
A Pending assignment can move to In Progress with Start Cleaning. An In Progress assignment can move to Completed with Mark Ready for Guest. Hotel Central records the lifecycle timestamps on the server, marks the room clean on completion, and can notify eligible hotel users according to their notification settings.
What can a housekeeper report from a room card?
Housekeepers can mark DND, still occupied, or service denied; report a maintenance issue with urgency and an optional photo; or create a lost-item report with description, category, found location, and an optional photo.
Which languages are supported?
Hotel Central supports saved interface-language preferences for English, Spanish, Hindi, Chinese, French, Arabic, Portuguese, and Gujarati. The room-assignment workflow uses translated interface labels, and room notes can render translated in place when a non-English language is selected.
Does Housekeeper Mobile work offline?
No. Assignments, status changes, room flags, and reports require an active internet connection so the current hotel record is read and updated safely.
Does it replace our PMS?
No. Your PMS remains the system of record for reservations and core room inventory. Hotel Central runs the staff assignment, room-progress, and exception workflow beside it. Compatible housekeeping files can be previewed and imported, but an import is not a live PMS connection.
