690 – Types of Views
Andrea: Help me decide on which type of hotel room to book.
George: I want the one with a bed.
Andrea: Very funny. We have a choice of different views, and each one is a different price. For instance, a room with a city view is $175 a night and a panoramic view is $275 a night.
George: $275 a night?! That’s highway robbery!
Andrea: If you think that’s too steep, there are a few other options. We can get a courtyard room with no view for $120 a night or a room with an obstructed or peek-a-boo ocean views for $130 a night.
George: I don’t really care which type of room we get as long as we don’t end up with a room on the ground floor. I don’t like having people walking back and forth outside my window all night.
Andrea: Okay, I can request a room on an upper floor. You really don’t have a preference?
George: No, not really.
Andrea: There is a penthouse room for $400 a night.
George: What?! For that price, I’d better get a view of the Eiffel Tower, the Parthenon, and the Great Wall of China!
