[speaker001:] Hi, I need a hotel room.
[speaker002:] That's no problem at all. May I have your name, please?
[speaker001:] Certainly. My name is John Sandals.
[speaker002:] It's a pleasure, Mr. Sandals. My name is Michelle. What days will you need a room?
[speaker001:] Friday afternoon, April 14 through Monday morning, April 17.
[speaker002:] One minor problem, sir. Our prices are now slightly higher. Is that acceptable, sir?
[speaker001:] Please tell me the price, so I can make a decision.
[speaker002:] It'll be $ 308 nightly.
[speaker001:] That's a reasonable price.
[speaker002:] Good! Now, sir, do you have a preference for smoking or nonsmoking?
[speaker001:] I quit smoking, so nonsmoking.
[speaker002:] I hear you, sir. Nonsmoking. Now, about the bed, is a queen-size okay?
[speaker001:] A queen sounds great.
[speaker002:] Okay, sir, let me reserve those dates, there. Now, if you'll just tell me your phone number.
[speaker001:] That would be 626-555-1739.
[speaker002:] That's 626-555-1739. Thank you so much for choosing our hotel, sir!
