Room Inspections

Your housekeeper cleans the room.
Your front desk knows instantly.

No radio calls. No paper sheets. No chasing. Housekeeping marks a room ready on their phone - and the status appears on the dashboard in real time. Works for guest rooms, bathrooms, common areas, changing rooms - anywhere that needs tracking. Early guest? Flag the room as urgent and it goes straight to the top of the list.

The Problem

Rooms are ready.
Nobody knows.

On a busy check-in day, front desk staff are fielding guests, answering phones, and trying to find out which rooms are actually ready. Housekeeping are heads down, cleaning. The communication between them is radios, shouting across corridors, and paper lists that nobody has time to update.

A guest arrives two hours early. Reception has no idea whether their room is done. Someone has to physically go and check, or call around until they reach the right person.

  • Radio calls disrupt housekeeping mid-clean
  • Paper inspection sheets are filled in after the fact, if at all
  • No real-time view of what's ready and what isn't
  • Early arrivals create stress for front desk and housekeeping alike
  • No way to flag which rooms are genuinely urgent

How It Works

One tap. Everyone knows.

Housekeeping staff open the ILYAN app on their phone while they're in the room. When the clean is done and the room is ready, they tap one button. That's it.

The room status updates on the front desk dashboard immediately - green for ready, flagged for urgent. No call required. No radio. No paper. Front desk can see the full property at a glance and know exactly what's available for early check-ins.

  • Staff tap Ready when the room is done - one button, takes two seconds
  • Status appears instantly on the front desk dashboard
  • Filter by All, Fresh, Not Fresh, or Urgent at a glance
  • Works for guest rooms, bathrooms, common areas and changing rooms
  • Full log of who marked each room and when
  • Works on any smartphone via native app or web portal

Urgent Rooms

Early arrival?
Front desk flags it. Housekeeping sees it.

When a guest arrives ahead of schedule, front desk can toggle a room to Urgent directly from the dashboard. That flag appears immediately on the housekeeping team's mobile list - highlighted, at the top, impossible to miss.

No radio call required. No need to find the right person. The message gets to whoever is working that floor within seconds, and the room jumps to the front of the queue.

  • Front desk toggles a room to Urgent in one click from the dashboard
  • Housekeeping sees the flag immediately on their phone
  • Room rises to the top of the inspection list automatically
  • Push notification alerts the relevant team member
  • Dashboard also shows scan count, notes and score per room at a glance

Common Questions

Straight answers.

Do housekeeping staff need a specific phone or app?
Staff can use either the ILYAN native app or the web portal on any smartphone - no special hardware required. The native app is recommended for housekeeping teams because it delivers push notifications reliably, ensuring urgent room flags reach the right person immediately. Either way, the interface is designed for speed - usable in seconds with no training required.
What happens when a guest arrives early?
Front desk toggles the room to Urgent on the dashboard with one click. That flag appears instantly on the housekeeping team's list - highlighted, at the top, with a push notification sent to the relevant team member. No radio call needed.
Is there a record of who cleaned each room and when?
Yes - every inspection is automatically timestamped and attributed to the staff member who completed it. The full log is permanent and searchable. If a guest raises a concern about room condition, you have an immediate record of what happened and when.
Does this replace paper inspection sheets entirely?
Yes. No paper, no clipboards, no sheets to file. Everything is logged digitally as it happens, visible to front desk in real time, and stored permanently. Management can review inspection history across any date range without chasing anyone for paperwork.
