Overview
The problem
The client needed to run day-to-day hotel operations — listings, bookings, multi-location inventory — from one place, without paying for an off-the-shelf SaaS tool that would be over-engineered for a single boutique property.
What it is
DwellCasa is a complete hotel management platform built for a boutique property in Lalitpur. The client needed to manage listings, handle bookings, track inventory across multiple locations, and run day-to-day operations from a single admin panel — without paying for an off-the-shelf SaaS tool that would be over-engineered for their scale.
My role & approach
Solo client project — I designed and built the entire platform, including the multi-location inventory architecture, role-based access for front desk, manager, and admin staff, and Google OAuth onboarding.
Built with the repository pattern for a clean separation between data access and business logic, which made the multi-location inventory support significantly easier to reason about. Role-based access control ensures front desk staff, managers, and admins each see only what they need. Google SSO was included to simplify staff onboarding.

"One admin panel for listings, bookings, and staff — instead of an off-the-shelf tool built for a scale they didn't need."
