Quest rooms



Simplybook is a perfect online booking system for quest and escape rooms of various types. It allows clients to choose the room and book specific time when the game will take place. Clients can leave feedback on the company booking page after the follow up email. In order to use Simplybook.me efficiently we recommend the following setup:

1. Create service as game with corresponding duration in Manage // Services // "+". Use Manage // Services // Time details to edit service duration.

2. Make providers as rooms. In Manage // Service Providers // "+" to add new service provider - create the number of providers equal to the rooms you have.

Rentals



If you are offering renting services, Simplybook can become a suitable booking software for you.

If you rent items for hours
Make your items as providers. For example if you rent musical instruments, create providers Flute, Bass, Violin, etc.
If you rent for different duration you will need to create multiple services with different duration. For example: Renting 1 hour, Renting 2 hours, Renting 6 hours, etc.


If you rent items for days

1. In Settings // Main configuration st both "Allow service to extend over breaktime" and "Allow service to extend over closing hours" to "Yes".

2. In Manage // Services // "+" create service with the duration corresponding to the amount of days your service will be offered for (3 days=3 hours, 7 days=7 hours).

3. In the Settings // Company opening hours (when you have only 1 service) or in the working hours of the service (Manage // Services // Service schedule) open only 1 hour each day.

If you plan to have 1 event or several events without regular services you should do the following:

1. Close all company opening hours in Settings // Company opening hours - put the switchers near weekday names to "off" position.

2. Create events you need in Manage // Services // "+". See detailed tutorial about events here.


24/7 or after 00.00 services

If your services will cross midnight, after you set up your availability make sure to set "Allow service to extend over closing hours" to "Yes" in Settings//Main configuration.


Different clinics/salons under one account

If you have several clinics/salons/gyms/etc you can use Locations Custom Feature and make each clinic or salon a location. You can assign providers who work on that location and while booking your services, clients will first choose location and then service and provider.


Services limited to the amount of rooms or items

For those companies that are restricted to amount of rooms or items we recommend to check Limit Bookings Custom Feature. This Custom Feature allows you to restrict booking quantity which can be booked at the same time. This Custom Feature is useful when your services require additional things like dental chair or room in the studio etc. When the booking limit is reached the corresponding time interval will look like breaktime on the booking page (and in the admin interface if you haven't set to skip these restrictions for admin). It is possible to limit booking number at the same time generally, and also you can set certain limit for each service separately.

Or as another option you can use Related Resources custom feature as it allows to connect equipment, rooms or anything else that is limited in quantity to a service. Different resources can be connected to the same service when needed. You can create all the necessary equipment, define the number of items required for each appointment per service/class and the resources will be automatically attached during the booking process.
