The Annex Hotel, a boutique property in Toronto, Canada, has recorded a 454% return on investment in Year 2 after implementing Flexkeeping, a Mews company, across its housekeeping and maintenance operations.
Running at 90% occupancy with a lean team, The Annex had operational coordination spread across multiple channels, with no single source of truth for room status, tasks or maintenance. Flexkeeping consolidated those workflows into one platform, delivering a 57% overall productivity improvement across housekeeping, maintenance and front-of-house. That included a 100% improvement in maintenance task management and an 80% improvement in how internal repairs are communicated across the team.
Room statuses now flow directly into Mews in real time, giving front desk staff accurate information without manual updates or cross-department delays.
"The fact that I can just reference Mews and the two of them talk to one another, and I can see when rooms are clean, inspected, or out of order, is a big win," said Sean Killeen, Hotel Manager at The Annex Hotel. "Of all the apps I've used, Flexkeeping is probably the easiest to transition to and understand."
The Annex Hotel runs Flexkeeping in conjunction with Mews, the hospitality operating system that powers its property management.
