B: no, they don’t. they have a beauty parlor, but I didn’t go there.
A: what’s the service like?
B; it’s very good. Check in and check out only took a few minutes. The wait staff is very good. A waiter recommended their baked fish, which tasted wonderful. The hotel was quite full, so I’d suggest making a reservation if you intend to go there. The hotel offers a discount at the weekends.
A: it sounds perfect. Did you have any complaints at all?
B; there was a problem with the internet access, so I couldn’t check my email, but I didn’t complain about it to the management.
A; I suppose you were happy to forget about the outside world.
B; yes, I was. Here’s their business card.

A: one of the things I dislike about hotels is that everyone expects tips.
B: I know. At the hingland hotel, they have an interesting policy. When you check out, you put some money in a special box at reception. Each evening, the money in the box is shared equally by the hotel staff.
