Never Late, Never Away Chapter 828
Compared with other hotels which were bustling with people, it was not an understatement to say that I-DO Hotel was deserted without a soul in sight.
“It’s considered normal here, Miss. Our hotel is a five-star hotel after all, and not many people who visit Summerbank are willing to splurge on a luxurious stay here. Besides, our hotel is in a rather secluded location. Miss, I don’t suppose that you’ve seen a five-star hotel being crowded with people. Am I right?”
The receptionist explained the phenomenon that Vivian found odd, but she found her explanation quite viable.
“Yes, the ones we’ve seen crowded with people were not five-star hotels, I suppose.” Vivian recalled the hotels that she had seen on the way here. Even though the hotels looked decent, they were not five-star hotels as advertised online.
“Yes, that’s why our hotel is not as crowded as you’d expect, Miss.” The receptionist managed a reassuring wide smile, a standard smile that a receptionist would give customers.
“Please book a deluxe suite for three nights, then.” Vivian handed over her card to the receptionist.
“Sure.” The receptionist gave Vivian another smile and proceeded with the booking.
“It’s done. Your room number is 55218,” said the receptionist as she handed over Vivian’s card back to her.
“Mommy, are you sure you want to stay here?” Larry asked, as he found the place to be quite peculiar.
However, he could not seem to pinpoint what was wrong.
“Yeah, what’s wrong with this place?” Vivian asked, well aware of what was on her son’s mind.
She was planning on staying at a different hotel if I-DO Hotel was not to Larry’s liking.
Since Summerbank was a tourist hotspot, it would not be difficult to look for a place to stay.
“It’s fine.” Even though Larry found the place to be quite strange, he did not detest the idea of staying there. Besides, it would be troublesome to look for another place to stay anyway.
“Alright, then let’s take a look at our room since we’ve already gotten the card.”
Vivian had browsed through the different types of rooms the hotel offered online, and she had found all the rooms aesthetically pleasing.
Hence, she was excited to see how the room that she had booked would turn out.
