Leo: Good afternoon. Can I help you?

Mona: Yes, we have a reservation for three nights. Mona White. I called last week.

Leo: One moment please, Ms White.

Leo: Yes, that was for two single rooms, wasn’t it? I’ve reserved rooms 402 and 403 for you.

Mona: Are they quiet rooms?

Leo: Well they are facing the street, but there’s a lovely view.

Mona: We’d like quiet rooms thanks.

Leo: Of course…

Leo: I can put you in rooms three-eleven and three-twelve. They’re at the rear¹ of the hotel.

Jack²: Mona…

Mona: That’s much better, thank you.

Jack: Mona…

Mona: Yes, Dad?

Jack: I’d like a view.

Mona: Oh. Is there a view?

Leo: Not really.

Mona: Well, we want our rooms together.

Jack: Mona…

Mona: Yes, Dad?

Jack: I don’t mind if our rooms aren’t together. I’d like a lovely view.

Mona: Oh.

Leo: I’ll see what I can do.

Leo: I can put you both on the same floor. Room 305 with a view and Room 311 at the rear. Your father will be just opposite you, Ms White. Is that OK?

Mona: Oh, yes, that’s fine.

Jack: Thank you.

Leo: My pleasure. Could you just fill out this form please?

Leo: Now can I help you with anything else?

Mona: Yes, is there an alarm clock in the room?

Leo: Yes, there is.

Mona: And a kettle and tea?

Leo: Yes, there are tea-making facilities in every room.

Mona: And is there an iron?

Leo: I’ll see to it right away. Now, could I see your credit card please, Ms White?..….
