As Laksmi has also announced on the teams chat, I would like to share the standardized way of adding notes on RB for the housekeeping team. 

Here are the three types of notes:

1) Futon (Extra) - still within standard pax

  • Guests requested futon (even though there are enough beddings for all)
  • Any booking that includes Guest extras package as futon, room notes should state: Futon (Extra) x (number of futon request)


2) Futon (Add Pax) - over standard pax, but within max pax.

  • Add Pax for "Additional pax"
  • Booking value includes additional pax fee for each additional guest over standard pax.
  • If the room type is more than standard pax, we check how many additional guests are there.
  • Room notes should state: Futon (Add Pax) x (additional number of pax)


Example: In this booking, Total guests is 7. Since 3 bedroom standard pax is 6, 7th guest requires a futon. Hence, room notes should state: Futon (Add Pax) x 1


Disclaimer: Should the guest still request Guest Extras even though there is already a futon for the additional guest, room notes should state: Futon (Add Pax) x 1 & Futon (Extra) x 1


3) Futon (Std) - still within standard pax

  • Std for "Standard" 
  • Futon set up in the Tatami room
Here is an exemplary scenario using Terrazze 4 bedroom penthouse. Room T401 has a standard capacity of 8 pax and the 4th bedroom is a tatami room.
  1. Example: if the booking is for 8 pax and the guest has chosen twin futons, please note as Futon (Std) x2
  2. Example: if the booking is for 8 pax and the guest has chosen double futon, please note as Futon (Std) x1
  3. Example: If the booking states 9 pax, exceeding the standard capacity of 8 pax.
    Since the 7th, 8th, and 9th guests will be sleeping on the futon, the room notes should state: Futon (Std) x2 & Futon (Add Pax) x1
  4. Example: if the guests request extra futons without an increase in pax
    Room notes should state: Futon (Std) x2 & Futon (Extra) x1
I understand it might be a bit complex to understand at first, so if there are any questions, feel free to ask the front desk and any other reservations team member. 
Please start implementing this for our existing bookings and it will be very helpful to our housekeeping team for the upcoming season!
