The Oakwood Worldwide® Guest Mobile App is designed to enhance the guest experience from pre-arrival through departure. It is downloadable for iOs or Android devices, as well as the desktop, and provides personalized check-in information, utilizes GPS for easy directions to the properties and enables guests to submit service requests, including uploading photos, for quick resolution.
