Watch for a Decline email
Watch for a Decline email
If you try and book an event that is available for part of the time period you want, you might see the room as available. If it is not available for the entire time period you want, you may still be able to try and book the event, BUT will immediately generate an "Event Declined" email.
There is a chance that you could book an event is a room that has a room manager. That manager might decline the event because they see another need for that room.
