ou are asked to design the database structure for an international hotel chain. The following is a list of requirements for the design that you have to model.
The hotel chain owns many hotels
Each hotel has the following attributes: a unique building ID (bID), a name that is not necessarily unique, country, state, city and street address.
A hotel contains a set of rooms, each with a room number. Different hotels can have rooms with the same number but within a hotel the number is unique.
For each room, we associate with it the maximum number of possible occupants.
A room can be reserved by hotel guests between a given check in and check out date.
Each guest has a guest ID and a name that is not necessarily unique.
The guest who pays for the room is designated as the payer. This person has an attribute, credit card number, associated with him/her for the credit card that is used to pay for the stay.
Suppose we have an entity set room related to an entity set guest through a relationship reservedBy. If we wish to record the duration of the guests' stay, i.e., record (checkInDate, checkOutDate), what is the best way to model this?
