As usual, after the inquiry as to what priced rooms they desired, it turned out that there was not a single good room vacant: one good room was occupied by a railway inspector, another by a lawyer from Moscow, a third by the Princess Astafyeva from the country.
Come sempre, dopo la domanda sul prezzo della camera desiderata, risultò che nessuna camera buona era libera: una camera buona era occupata da un ispettore delle ferrovie, un’altra da un avvocato di Mosca, una terza dalla principessa Astaf’eva venuta dalla campagna.
