What happens when a room is set online?

When a room is Set Online in Stayflexi, it becomes available for booking across all connected channels, including the property’s own website and OTAs [Online Travel Agencies]. This is commonly done after the room has been offline due to maintenance, cleaning, or other operational reasons. The room’s availability is instantly updated across all platforms, making it open for new reservations.

EXAMPLE: Let’s say Kevin, a property manager, had previously set Room 301 offline for a week due to to plumbing repairs. After the repairs are completed and the room is ready for guests, Kevin logs into Stayflexi and sets Room 301 back Online. Immediately, the room becomes available for booking across all connected OTAs like Booking.com and Airbnb.

Later that day, a guest visiting the property’s official website sees Room 301 available for their desired dates and makes a booking. Since Stayflexi automatically syncs inventory across all platforms, the room is also available on all OTA platforms.

By setting the room online, Kevin ensures that the guests have access to the most up-to-date availability, all while avoiding any manual work to update each booking channel individually.
