not messy
 
Dear colleagues
 
It �s very common to describe a room as "messy". So common that I can �t figure out how to say the opposite :) !
I �m not sure "the classroom was orderly" works, I �d rather use "orderly" for people.
Is "the classroom was in order" ok ???
 
Thank you and have a great new school year!

Thanks for your help, dear cunliffe!

You can also say the room is all cleaned up. Or everything is in its place.
