Problem building ArrayList for Hotel class

[ed spithaler]

I am building a hotel program with 2 classes. I am using an arraylist to store the room info, but when I print the room list I get strange characters that look like hex.
Any help would be appreciated.

This is the output:

Number of Rooms :
Number of Occupied Rooms :
Room Details are :
Room Number :
Smoking room :
Bed Type :
Rate :
Room@56f9659d
Room@f7e5307
Room@2e7cf883
Room@e9f784d
Room@7930ebb

It should look like this:

Hotel Name : Beach Marriot
Number of Rooms : 5
Number of Occupied Rooms : 1

Room Details are:

Room Number: 101
Occupant name: Not Occupied
Smoking room: s
Bed Type: queen
Rate: 100.0

public class TestHotel
{ 
  
public static void main(String[] args)
      {
      
         Hotel navarre = new Hotel(" Hampton Hotel ", "Hwy 98 Navarre");
         //pensacola.addReservation();
         navarre.addRoom("king",101,'s',99.99);
         navarre.addRoom("queen",202,'n',79.99); 
         navarre.addRoom("single",203,'s',49.99); 
         navarre.addRoom("king studio",204,'s',159.99); 
         navarre.addRoom("queen and twin",205,'n',129.99);
         navarre.printReservationList();                  
         
      }
      
}       

import java.util.*;
   public class Hotel
   {
      ArrayList<Room> theRooms = new ArrayList<Room>();
      private String name;
      private String location;
      private int occupiedCnt=0;
      private double occupancyPercentage = 0;
      private double DailySales = 0;
      private static final int NOT_FOUND = -1;
 
       public Hotel(String n, String a)
      {  
        name = n;
        location = a; 
      }  
	      public void addRoom(String bd, int rn, char s, double r)
      {
        
		Room newRoom = new Room(bd,rn,s,r );
   
		theRooms.add(newRoom);
   
      }
       public void printReservationList()
      {
       
	    System.out.println("Hotel  Name: " + name   + '\n' + "Address: " + location + '\n');
       System.out.println("Number of Rooms :");
		 System.out.println("Number of Occupied Rooms :");
		 System.out.println("Room Details are :");
		 System.out.println("Room Number :");
       System.out.println("Smoking room :");
       System.out.println("Bed Type :");
       System.out.println("Rate :");

		      for (int i = 0; i < theRooms.size(); i++)
           { 
		      System.out.println(theRooms.get(i));
      }
   }       
}

import java.util.ArrayList;
public class Room
{
	private String bedType, occupantName;
   private int roomNum  ;
   private double rate ;
   private char smoking;
   private boolean occupied;
	 
   public Room(String bd, int rn, char s, double r)
	{
	   roomNum = rn;
      bedType = bd;
      smoking = s;
      rate = r;      
  
   }

 }

Nothing strange about it. Check out the source code for Object#toString()

To get your desired output, you need to
1) Provide appropriate getter methods in your Room class. eg.getRoomNum, isSmoking* etc
2) When you are iterating over theRooms, call these methods and print the values

*I notice you have defined smoking as a char. If it is going to indicate yes/no, then it would be a better idea to define it as a boolean like you have done for occupied

PS. You can also override the toString() in your Room class to return the appropriate text you want.

What’s smoking? They don’t allow it in this country any more. Not in a hotel at least.
When you said to look up toString, I presume you meant this, which explains the problem quite nicely.

look at the line 47 theRooms.add(newRoom);

Here you are storing objects in your array List . and when you are retreiving you are getting objects So what you have stored you are getting
