U: I am looking for a 3 star hotel to stay in.

S: There are 6, 3 start hotels in Cambridge. Do you have a preference for the part of town it is located in?

U: The hotel should be in the expensive price range.

S: Okay, I've got two that fit the bill.  One in the centre of town and one in the south.  Do you have a preference?

U: I do, yes. I would like to stay in the center of town. I need it to fit five people, for 3 nights, starting Wednesday afternoon.

S: I am very sorry, but I was unable to book a reservation for you. Would you be willing to book a later day or would you be willing to have a shorter stay?

U: Lets try just booking it for one night.

S: I apologize. One night is not working either. There are guesthouses.

U: What about the 4 star hotels?

S: I do have a four star hotel in the centre of town, but it is also unable to accommodate your guests for 3 days. Can you adjust your length of stay?

U: Can we book the other expensive 3 star hotel for one night starting on wednesday?

S: I reserved Wednesday night at the University Arms Hotel for 5 people.  Your reference number is GM90EY8A.  Is there anything else?

U: Do you know whether the University Arms Hotel has beds that are comfy?
S: It has been said by guests who have previously stayed that the beds are really comfortable.  Others have said though that the beds could have been better.
