room inspection
Barracks tidiness audit
A room inspection is a formal examination of living quarters to check for cleanliness, order, or rule compliance.
The term appears most often in military barracks, college dormitories, and summer camps, where authorities periodically verify that residents maintain acceptable standards: We have room inspection every Friday morning.
In the military, failing inspection can result in disciplinary action.
