    Hi TONTALE

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    Our plugin currently support time slot booking during one day, so if it is just renting of co-working space for a couple of hours a day, then it is possible to use our plugin for this. If, however you need multi-days booking then you should check out our new feature Events.

    You can either create rooms where services are and create employee for each room (different one, so they can be bookable at the same time) and hide the employee selection with a simple CSS (we will explain later on ) or you can create each room as separate employee and create just one service to attach to each room. Just so you know each employee needs to have email, so if you don't need a separate email for each you can create with Gmail or outlook the same email with +number, and they will be seen as a different one (a would later explain you this in more details, but you should know that you need to use Gmail or Outlook).

    If your employee email address is [email protected] you can make more employees with same email adding numbers like [email protected],[email protected]... )

    And then you can use ameliabooking shortcode and on front-end you can hide with CSS  dropdawn with Employees.

    You can hide the employees selection field from the customize tab or using this CSS rule on the page between style tags where you will hide Employee dropdawn:

    <style>
    .am-select-employee-option {    display: none;
    }
    </style>

    If you create just one employee and rooms as services, that means that rooms will not be bookable at the same time, since there is just one employee that is working (one employee/rooms one working hours - multiple employees/rooms multiple working hours). That is the reason why I offer you two other workarounds: rooms as services but with several employees hidden from the front-end, or rooms as employees with one service.
