Hero: Could you check it again? Here are my reservation number and my passport.
Camilla: Thank you, sir. Eh, maybe there is something wrong with our booking system. I am really sorry for that. And... we don’t have any double rooms available now. But I can upgrade you to one of our superior rooms. They are a lot larger, as the room size nearly doubles.
