Q3: Choose the correct options to complete the text.
I’ve just made a ( reception / reservation ) for my stay in Florida next year. I planned on
staying in a ( holiday home / hotel ), but the houses I liked were too expensive. Instead, I’m
staying in my favourite kind of accommodation, a small ( cabin / campsite ) on the beach
with wooden walls and steps down to the sea. There’s no kitchen – just a simple bedroom
and bathroom, but I love a place that’s really close to nature. My next choice would have
been a ( campsite / hostel ) . They are great, but they can be very noisy because tents
don’t have walls. When I go on holiday, I don’t care about having things like a waterfall
shower or a huge bed like you get in an expensive ( hostel / hotel ) . Last year, my sister
and I stayed in one in New York. We had a ( double room / reception ) on the 11th floor. I
hated calling ( reception / reservation ) for room service, though I expect some people
love that! I don’t mind staying in a ( hostel / hotel ). They’re cheap and you can usually
make friends with new people.
