    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:background="@drawable/title_color"
    tools:context=".MainActivity">

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/Occupied"
        android:layout_width="235dp"
        android:layout_height="80dp"
        android:layout_marginStart="98dp"
        android:layout_marginLeft="98dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="186dp"
        android:background="@drawable/my_button_bg"
        android:text="@string/main_name_button"
        android:textAllCaps="false"
        android:textColor="#00FFFF"
        android:textSize="25sp" />

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/Guest"
        android:layout_width="235dp"
        android:layout_height="80dp"
        android:layout_marginStart="98dp"
        android:textAllCaps="false"
        android:layout_marginLeft="98dp"
