In this chapter, extra beds are used as an example to illustrate the handling of:
•roll away beds
•baby cots
•parking spaces
The main advantage of using bed reservations in this connection is that the availability of these facilities can be seen in the category rack, thus avoiding overbookings. In case of extra beds and baby cots the hotel may be able to order or rent extra stocks in advance if and when required.
In addition, the layouts of the housekeeping reports can be adjusted to include extra bed and baby cot requirements.
