Stop the two money leaks every hotel knows

Free breakfast for guests you never charged, and towels that walk out the door. DohOps was built to close both.

Guest passes

Two guests booked. Four at breakfast.

A room is booked for two, four people stay, and all four eat the free breakfast and come to the manager's reception. The hotel was paid for two. At many hotels nobody can tell, so it can happen every day.

How DohOps stops it
  • At check-in, the front desk sends a guest pass with the guest count on the booking, by text or as a printed QR code.
  • The pass opens your hotel's own guest page with whatever you choose: breakfast hours, Wi-Fi, house rules, checkout time, and buttons to ask for towels or report a problem.
  • At breakfast or the manager's reception, the attendant or front desk scans it: green for “Room 214, guest 2 of 2, OK”, red for “guest 3, extra”.
  • For an extra guest, the attendant records a charge to the room, notes that the guest declined, or a manager overrides it with a reason. The extra-guest report goes to the front desk.
  • Free or paid breakfast, a free or paid manager's reception, or any pass you create. Scans are counted, so a shared screenshot does not get extra people in.
Extras and checkout checks

Extra towels that walk out the door.

A guest asks for more towels, pillows or blankets. Nobody writes it down, nobody knows whether the old ones came back, and at checkout the extras leave with the guest. The hotel pays to replace them.

How DohOps stops it
  • The front desk or the housekeeper logs what went to the room: “Room 214, 4 towels”.
  • Each extra is marked Given, Swapped (the old ones came back on the spot, nothing owed) or Returned later.
  • At checkout, the first person in the room checks the room's standard items plus the extras, tapping only what is missing or damaged, with photos.
  • A checkout room can't be marked clean until the check is done, or the hotel can choose a warning instead.
  • Missing items go into a one-tap evidence PDF with photos, times and proof the item was in the room before the guest, ready for a chargeback.
Smoking and damage
A one-tap report with photos, priced from your own charge list, in the same evidence PDF.
Cash deposits
Who took it, who may collect it, and who returned or kept it and why. A record only; DohOps never holds money.
Unexplained rooms
An owner-only report of rooms cleaned with no guest on file, rooms added to the board by hand, and vacant rooms found dirty.

DohOps never charges a card. Charges are records with proof; your front desk posts them in your PMS.

How DohOps fits a hotel operation

Six ways DohOps maps to the housekeeping, maintenance and front-desk reality of a franchise hotel.

HOTEL ESSENTIAL

Housekeeping board

Photograph or upload your PMS room report and DohOps AI drafts the day's board. Take its suggested split or assign rooms yourself (“Give Milagros 101–110”), and every housekeeper sees their rooms on their phone.

Photo room cleans and inspections

Housekeepers follow your hotel's photo shot guide for each room. DohOps AI scores the photos against your benchmark photos; your inspector passes the room or sends it back with Clean again, marking on the photos what to redo. Inspect every room, a sample, or only the ones DohOps AI flags.

Maintenance work orders

Report a room problem with a photo, assign the work order and track it to done with a promised-by time, verification and costs. Preventive cycles such as deep cleans come around on schedule.

Damage, deposits and lost and found

A one-tap smoking or damage report with photos, a cash deposit log (a record only), found items logged with slips, and linen discards tracked.

Banquet and event staffing

Schedule servers, bartenders and setup crew for each event as shifts by position, next to your regular schedule, and publish them to phones. Cut banquet scheduling time from 90 minutes to 15.

Every department, every property

Housekeeping, front desk, maintenance and breakfast in one schedule across your properties, a shared hotel phone with PIN sign-in for housekeepers, and kiosk clock-in at the front desk.

Inspections that show exactly what to redo

Marks on room photos and work orders, and the ready-made Hotel walk for the whole property.

Marks on room photos

Your inspector circles the hair in the tub or draws an arrow at the missed corner on the housekeeper's photos, adds a short note and sends the room back with Clean again. The housekeeper sees “See 2 marked photos” on My Rooms and knows exactly what to redo. The original photo is never changed.

Marks on work orders

On a maintenance work order, circle the leak or the broken hinge on the report, before and after photos and add a short note. Each mark is added to the work order's history, so whoever picks it up next sees exactly what was found.

Hotel walk audits

Walk the property with the ready-made Hotel walk or build your own weighted checklist. Each item is Pass, Fail or N/A or scored in points, with photos and notes. DohOps works out the score, answers lock when you submit, each miss can make a fix-it task, and you see each property's score and trend.

Real numbers from the founder's hotel

The Country Inn & Suites hotel in our case study is run by DohOps founder Vikas Sharma and his partners. March to October 2026, read from the DohOps database.

202 → 751 checklists a month

Completed checklists grew from 202 in May to 751 in October: 2,381 in total, about 1,355 with photos.

About 1,580 scored by DohOps AI

DohOps AI scored the photos, and managers made the final call.

97% or more on the kiosk

Since June, 97% or more of clock-ins happen on a shared kiosk tablet with a PIN, not on personal phones.

$1,319 in bonuses recorded

For 17 employees since January 2026: $152 marked paid, $1,167 approved and waiting to be paid.

The pain we built this for

A hotel runs several workforces at once: housekeeping, front desk, maintenance and often breakfast and banquets. Housekeeping alone is a production floor: rooms assigned every morning, cleaned to a brand standard, inspected, and ready before guests arrive. A generic scheduling tool treats all of it as interchangeable “shifts.”

Then there are the leaks nobody tracks: extra guests at a free breakfast and the manager's reception, extra towels that leave at checkout, damage found days later. Each one is small; together they drain a hotel's profit every month. DohOps puts a record and a photo behind each of them.

Many franchise hotels still run housekeeping from a printed PMS report and a whiteboard in the linen room. That works until a housekeeper calls out, a room is missed, or the brand inspector asks how you know every room was checked. DohOps keeps the board, the photos and the inspection results, room by room, every day.

DohOps does not replace your PMS and does not connect to it. Reservations, billing and room status stay in your PMS; DohOps reads a photo or PDF of the room report to build the housekeeping board, and handles the people and the work.

DohOps was built by Vikas Sharma, a multi-unit operator who has spent 30 years turning struggling stores and hotels into top performers. He is a member of 7-Eleven's NBLC and ZLC and a former President of the Greater Austin 7-Eleven Franchise Owners Association, and his own hotel and stores run on DohOps today: see the numbers in the case study.

Hotels pay $99 plus $1.99 per room a month instead of per employee, never less than the standard per-user price ($99 with 8 users, then $8 per user), with DohOps AI included.

Hotel staff and housekeeping: FAQ

What is the best hotel staff app for a franchise hotel?+
Look for a housekeeping board, rooms on each housekeeper's phone, photo proof of every clean, inspections, maintenance work orders and staff scheduling in one app, plus a way to stop the money leaks: extra guests at a free breakfast and extras that leave at checkout. DohOps does all of that, priced at $99 plus $1.99 per room a month (never less than the standard per-user price), with DohOps AI included.
How do guest passes stop free-breakfast abuse?+
The front desk sends each guest a pass with the guest count on the booking, by text or as a printed QR code. At breakfast or the manager's reception, the attendant scans it: green when the guest is within the count, red for an extra guest. The attendant then records a charge to the room, notes that the guest declined, or a manager overrides it with a reason, and the front desk gets the extra-guest report. Scans are counted, so a shared screenshot does not get extra people in.
How does DohOps track extra towels and linens?+
Whoever hands out extras logs them on the room (“Room 214, 4 towels”), marked Given, Swapped or Returned later. At checkout, the first person in the room checks the standard items plus the extras and taps what is missing, with photos. Missing items go into a one-tap evidence PDF your front desk can use for the charge.
Does DohOps charge the guest's card?+
No. DohOps never charges a card or holds money. Extra-guest charges, missing items and damage are records with photos and times; your front desk posts the charge in your PMS. Cash deposits are a log of who took, returned or kept them.
How does the housekeeping board work?+
Each morning, photograph or upload your PMS room report. DohOps AI reads it and drafts the board with a suggested split, and you assign rooms yourself or tell DohOps AI “Give Milagros 101–110”. Housekeepers see their rooms on their own phone or the shared hotel phone, and you see progress room by room.
Does DohOps connect to OPERA or our PMS?+
No. DohOps does not connect to OPERA or any PMS. Reservations, billing and room status stay in your PMS; DohOps reads a photo or PDF of the PMS room report to build the housekeeping board, and handles staff, housekeeping, inspections and maintenance.
How does DohOps help with brand inspections?+
Every room clean, inspection, public-area checklist and maintenance work order is kept with its photos and time stamps, so when a brand quality inspector visits you can show what was done and when. Before the visit, walk the property yourself with the ready-made Hotel walk or your own weighted checklist: DohOps works out the score, and each miss can make a fix-it task. DohOps does not file anything with your brand.
How does DohOps handle banquet and event staffing?+
Schedule each event's servers, bartenders and setup crew as shifts by position, next to your regular schedule, and publish them to phones with a reminder before each shift. A manager assigns each event shift; staff cannot claim open shifts themselves yet.
How is hotel pricing different?+
Hotels add Hospitality: $99 plus $1.99 per room a month, instead of per employee, and never less than the standard per-user price ($99 with 8 users, then $8 per user). A 60-room hotel with 18 staff pays $218.40 a month. Rooms are billed, not lobbies, pools or corridors. DohOps AI is included. Every new account starts with a 30-day free trial, no credit card; to keep Hospitality after the trial, subscribe to Standard.
Can an inspector show a housekeeper what to redo?+
Yes. When inspecting a room, the inspector can circle, draw arrows and add short notes on the housekeeper's photos, then pass the room or send it back with Clean again. The housekeeper sees how many photos were marked (“See 2 marked photos”) on My Rooms, on their own phone or the shared hotel phone. The original photo is never changed, and the marks are made by a person, not by DohOps AI.
