My idea is ...

Booking Engine - Program Configuration Setting for the "Rooms" label

"Rooms" does not appropriately describe the type of units offered by many proprietors - Please make this a Program Configuration Setting - either a text input field or pick list with options such as Rooms, Suites, Units, Cabins, Bungalows, etc

        We've had guests comment on this when they rent our entire ranch house. (It's a 3-room place) and they're afraid that other people will be showing up to rent some individual rooms. Good idea to change it. I'll stand by to hear if it's done.

        PS - Just to clarify, I don't think this feature would require any changes to under-lying rate calculations etc... it just makes things clearer.... and "Rooms" could be the default, so it doesn't effect those already happy with it...

        To clarify, the GTO online booking engine asks guests to specify number of "Rooms" they want: however, the "Rooms" label is confusing or misleading in cases where the lodging establishment consists of multi-bedroom suites, or cabins, etc, - If, as a guest, I want to rent one three bedroom suite, it would be unclear if I should enter 1 or 3 - The issue ripples through the booking process, all the way to the confirmation page - Ability to use Program Configuration to set the label as appropriate for each lodging establishment would be great!
