Cleaning shows which rooms need cleaning, who is doing them and what's done. Rooms appear by themselves when a guest checks out — you don't need to create anything first.

Cleaning is on the Starter plan and up. Owners, admins and managers can use this page.

The Cleaning page

The four numbers at the top

  • Clean first — rooms where a new guest arrives today. Do these before anything else.
  • Still to clean — and how many are not given to anyone yet.
  • Being cleaned — started, not finished.
  • Done today.

The page updates itself every minute or so, so you can leave it open.

Today

Each room is a card. The label on it says where it stands:

Label Means
Clean first A new guest arrives in this room today (the card shows the time).
To clean A guest leaves or has left today.
Missed A guest left on an earlier day and the room wasn't cleaned. It stays here for up to 3 days, until it's cleaned or a new guest moves in.
Being cleaned A cleaner has started.
Done / Skipped Finished, or you chose to skip it.

The card also shows when the guest leaves, the cleaner, how much of the checklist is ticked and any photos. If the room has an open maintenance problem, there is a link to it.

Give a room to a cleaner

  1. On the room's card, open the box that says Nobody yet.
  2. Pick the cleaner.

It saves straight away. The cleaner sees the room in their cleaner app, and gets a text if they have a mobile number and texts to cleaners are switched on in this page's Settings.

No cleaners yet? The card shows Add a cleaner to give rooms out — see Add cleaners and give them the phone app.

Tick a room off

  • Mark clean — the room is done.
  • The ⋯ menu has Start (cleaning has begun), Skip (no clean needed) and Details (the job page with checklist, notes and photos).
  • A room marked Done or Skipped has Reopen if you made a mistake.

Your cleaners can do the same from their own app.

Guests staying on (stay-over cleans)

Under the board, Guests staying on lists rooms whose guest stays tonight too. These are not counted as rooms to clean. If you tidy rooms during a stay, click Add a clean next to the room — it becomes a job called "Stay-over clean".

Jobs that aren't a checkout

Click + Add a job for anything else, like a deep clean. Pick the Room and Date, optionally a Cleaner and instructions, then click Add job.

Next 7 days

Every checkout for the coming week, day by day. Give rooms to cleaners ahead of time with the same Nobody yet box. If a booking is cancelled or moved, its job is removed or moved too, and the cleaner gets a text.

History

Past jobs. Filter by Period (last 30 days, 90 days or 12 months), Status (Done, Skipped, Never finished) and Cleaner.

Note: Want rooms given out every morning by themselves? Click Settings at the top of this page and, under Every morning, tick Make a cleaning job for each room with a checkout today and Give each job to a cleaner automatically. Owner or admin only.
