Housekeeping statuses: the front desk cheat sheet
Housekeeping4 min readUpdated 2026-04-30Dirty, clean, inspected, out-of-order — what each status means and how they drive your room board.
A clean, honest room board is the fastest thing you can improve at your property. Statuses are the language it speaks.
The statuses
- Dirty — guest out, room not yet cleaned
- Clean — cleaned, awaiting supervisor approval
- Inspected — approved and sellable in real time
- Out of order — maintenance, not sellable
Why it matters
When housekeeping updates status on their phone, the front desk and every channel instantly know the room is sellable. That's how you stop turning away early arrivals with a clean room sitting in limbo.
