Alternatively you may enter each room separately, each with a quantity of one. This way bookings will be uniquely assigned and can be transferred to individual rooms.
 
 
 
When using the Room Type = 1 Room per Guest this quantity sets the maximum number of guests for this room. This may represent beds in a hostel room or per person activity tickets etc.
 
 
 
 
 
'''Room Allocation:''' "One Room Per Booking" will allocate one room for each booking. This is the normal setting for a hotel room etc. "One Room Per Guest" will allocate one room for each person in the booking. This is typical for a hostel selling beds or for activity or event tickets which are allocated per person.
 
 
 
'''Collect Number of Guests''':
 
 
 
 
 
'''MaximumPeople''': This is the total number of people this room can accommodate. A booking cannot be made for this room for more than this number of people. If Maximum Adults and Maximum Children are non zero the lowest of Max imumPeople or Maximum Adults plus Maximum Children will apply as the maximum room occupancy.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
'''Maximum Adults:''' This is the maximum number of adults this room can accommodate. A booking cannot be made for this room including more than this number of adults. This can be used with the Maximum Children setting to specify the maximum number of adults and children that can be occupied. If both Maximum Adults and Max Children are zero then Maximum People is used and the booking form will only ask for the number of guests.
 
 
 
 
 
'''Maximum Children''': This is the maximum number of children this room can accommodate. A booking cannot be made for this room including more than this number of children. If you set this to zero the booking page will simply ask for the number of guests. There will be no field for the number of children. If required you can specify any age restrictions in your description and policy fields.
 
 
 
 
 
'''Maximum Nights:''' This sets the maximum number of nights a booking will be accepted for. If Max. Nights is set to 1 only the arrival date will be collected, the departure date will be automatically set to the next day.
 
 
 
If this is set to Activity the departure date is not collected and the wording of the booking form is changed to represent booking an event or activity rather than an accommodation.
