## 2. Maintenance & Out-of-Order (OOO) Protocols

- Any plumbing, electrical, or structural issue reported by housekeeping or front desk creates a **Maintenance Ticket**.
- Selecting **Priority: Critical** instantly updates physical room operational status to `Out of Order (OOO)`.
- The direct booking availability engine immediately excludes this room from online inventory to prevent selling defective rooms.
- Once the technician resolves the ticket, the room returns to `Dirty` for deep cleaning and inspection before release.
