What changed
  • Every room shows its price for your dates and the total for the stay, so nobody needs the tariff PDF or an email to find out.
  • Pick your dates once, in the first screen, and every room says free or taken on its own postcard.
  • The six rooms are six postcards of the view from each window, so you choose by what you will see in the morning.
  • The phone number is a real tap-to-call link in the first screen on a phone.
  • "Ask for this room" fills in the room and dates, and says plainly why booking direct costs less: no commission comes off.
  • Built for a phone first. With JavaScript off it is still six rooms with prices and a phone number.
