>From what I understood, you need a day level granularity (i.e booked on
15th, 16th and 17th of August) in your indexes. If this is true, then why
even store a "date"? For your use case, I think this should suffice -
<dynamicField name="reserved_dates_*" type="integer" indexed="true"
stored="true" multiValued="true"/>

Each document will have values like these for this particular field -
reserved_dates_August => 15, 16, 19
reserved_dates_September => 1, 3
....

Searches would be for documents (rooms) that don't have certain dates in
their multi-valued fields for the a particular month.
E.g if you wanted to find out rooms available on 15th, 16th and 17th of
August, the query could be:
q=!(+reserved_dates_August:15 +reserved_dates_August:16
+reserved_dates_August:17)

Hope this helps.
