Marston $odge is a " star hotel consisting o 100 edrooms and situated in

5or/ o!erurden on sta>. So6 in all the situations6 ames Thoma (the
operations manager) and im Talot (the head cleaner responsile or all
cleaning standards at Marston $odge) should chec/ each angle and corner
o the guest room including tales6 8oors6 ceilings6 eds6 toilets and other
elongings o the room in order to ma/e sure they are dust ree andcompletely hygienic. The sta> responsile or cleaning can get eedac/

can use this eedac/ to impro!e the ser!ices or the uture. 9egati!e

to o>er etter ser!ice to guests (O+allon and 'utherord6 2011). These
eedac/s should e monitored through the proper implementation o an
ICT system.
C$eck+in C$eck+out
Chec/?in and chec/?out system in any hotel is one o the important systems5hich need special attention (Kallen and Kallen6 201). This system is
related to cleaning as 5ell. +or eample6 a house/eeping system is said to
e unctional i the ront des/ is a5are o chec/?ins and chec/?outs so that
cleaning o rooms can e arranged accordingly. =s mentioned in the case
study that chec/?in and chec/?out systems are inade;uate and most o the
guests seem unhappy rom the eisting acilities. This also re8ects cleaning
and other house/eeping acti!ities as 5ell. Thereore6 hotel manager and
other responsile sta> in Marston $odge must ta/e this into account
seriously and implementing a proper ICT system is the est solution ormanaging chec/?in and chec/?out system.

The laundry ;uality control and in!entory system needs to e managed
properly 5hich greatly support hotel operations. In act6 these contriute
greatly to the management o hotels. ones (200,) in this regard asserts
that controlling in!entory and ;uality control through sot5are is important
in order to super!ise and control the laundry system and also to minimise
the loss and damages. Gsing sot5are can reduce the damages as they can
e ;uic/ly traced and recorded and hence immediate action can e ta/enon urgent asis. This not only reduces costs and ependitures ut also
contriutes greatly to the increment o hotel7s pro

It is also e!ident rom the comments o laundry sta> in the case study that
the laundry system in Marston $odge al5ays has prolems due to high sta>
turno!er. The system at the hotel is not unctioning 5ell and thereore
re;uires proper planning. In this regard6 the hotel can put into practice a
sot5are system to e>ecti!ely control and manage the laundry system. 4yimplementing this solution as a part o ICT strategy 5ill help operations
manager and the head or laundry responsile to replace the manual
system 5ith computerised so that turno!er o people cannot a>ect the
laundry system.

ayes and 9inemeier (200*) argue that maintaining essentially re;uired
acilities is also a massi!e department 5hich is accountale or upholding
all interior and eterior acilities in the hotel. Interior acilities reer cleaning
and maintenance o all urniture inside the hotel 5hereas eterior acilitiesinclude the outside loo/ o the hotel. =s compared to eterior acilities6 it is
more critical to maintain the attracti!eness o interior loo/s o the hotels
especially in an en!ironment 5hen the hotel is too usy all the time.
=ccording to ones (200,)6 interior loo/s ha!e a considerale impact on the
enoyment and perceptions o guests 5hile their stay at the hotel.
