This morning, a guest called to confirm her reservation for next weekend. I asked for her surname and found her booking. She had booked a double room for two nights, from Friday to Sunday. I checked the dates with her and confirmed that breakfast was included in the price. She wanted to know about parking because she was coming by car. I explained that we had a private car park behind the hotel. It costs ten pounds a day. She also mentioned that she would arrive around nine in the evening. I added a note to her booking so the evening team would know. Before the call ended, I checked her email address and sent her the confirmation with the booking number, arrival time and parking details.

Before her weekend trip, Maya checks her hotel confirmation. She booked a twin room for herself and a colleague, but the email says “double room”. They need separate beds, so she calls the hotel.
“Could you check the room type on my booking?” she asks. The receptionist finds the reservation using her surname and arrival date. He confirms that the booking is for a double room with one large bed.
Maya explains that she requested two single beds. The receptionist checks what is available and changes the booking to a twin room at the same price. He then confirms the dates, the number of guests and whether breakfast is included.
Before ending the call, Maya asks for a new confirmation email. When it arrives, she checks the details again. Everything now matches her plans, and she saves the email on her phone to show at reception.
