What does vacant dirty mean?
In Optii's housekeeping status documentation, “Vacant Dirty (VD)” means a guest has checked out and the room is empty but still requires a departure clean before reuse. This describes Optii's workflow, not necessarily another hotel's system.
What does vacant clean mean?
Room-status stages can differ after cleaning. Optii describes “Vacant Clean (VC)” as cleaned by an attendant but awaiting final inspection, and “Vacant Inspected (VI)” as verified. Frontdesko's product guide describes VC as clean and ready to assign in its own workflow. Consult the definitions configured for the actual property.
Check the hotel's own room-status procedure
Before acting on a code, use the property's PMS definitions and housekeeping SOP. Confirm which status means cleaned, which—if any—means inspection complete, who changes the status and how the front office is notified. A code from another hotel or software system does not authorize a check-in.
Use clear handover language
When discussing a room, include its number, the status shown in the local system and the cleaning or inspection task still pending. This avoids treating shorthand from another property as a universal workflow.
