Room 307
Daniel expected (sleep) well after a long journey, but the hotel had other ideas. Shortly after midnight, he kept (hear) three slow knocks from somewhere near the wardrobe. He remembered (see) an old photograph of a man hanging next to it when he first entered the room, although he hadn’t paid much attention to it. He called reception and asked the night manager (change) his room.
There were no other rooms immediately available, but she offered him the opportunity (move) the following morning. (hear) the same three knocks every few minutes made it impossible for Daniel to sleep, so eventually he decided (investigate) . He was curious (find) out whether the sound was coming from inside the wardrobe. He opened the wardrobe slowly (check) what was inside. Nothing. He looked at the photo hanging on the wall next to the wardrobe and discovered that the man had disappeared. At that point, he refused (stay) in Room 307 until morning.
