Unfortunately We Are Full

- Mr Phillips: What can you recommend?

- Reception Clerk: Well, there is a small private guest-house just round the corner You may try there. I'm very sorry, sir.

 

How Long Will You Stay?

- Desk-Clerk: May I ask you, Mr Pavlov, how many days you are planning to stay with us?

- Pavlov: I expect to stay for at least a week, probably more, until the eighteenth of June.

- Desk-Clerk: Very good, sir. Would you mind letting us know 3 the day before you leave the hotel? We can then have your bill ready for you.

- Pavlov: I'll let you know, to be sure.
