room cleaning

Making space presentable

Room cleaning is the act of tidying and sanitizing a room—picking up clutter, dusting surfaces, vacuuming or mopping floors, and making beds.

The term appears most often in hospitality contexts, where hotel room cleaning follows checkout: Room cleaning takes about thirty minutes per unit.

It also describes household chores: Saturday morning is for room cleaning.
