Sample answer:
About 6 months ago I was sent by my company to solve a problem for a client. The client was located in a remote island off the mainland and so I had to drive to the coast and then take a flight to the island. The plan had been to go there early in the morning and then fly back late afternoon because there were only two flights that day. Unfortunately, while I was there the weather turned really bad and a really strong storm moved in from the sea and so it was impossible to fly out in the afternoon.
So someone at the company arranged a local hotel for me to stay at, when hopefully I would be able to fly out again. The hotel was really small and there were only four rooms, but it was so cool. It was like an old farmhouse with a big open fire, and the owner, a middle-aged lady, was really friendly and made sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed.When dinner was served in the evening I met another guest and we had a coffee afterwards and the owner also joined us and told us a little more about life there and her hotel.It was really fascinating that I’d never stayed anywhere so remote before, so it was quite an adventure.
As for the view from the hotel, that night it wasn’t very impressive because all you could see was the rain and some of the lights along the coast but early the next morning when the sun came up it was quite spectacular to see the light bouncing of the ocean and the birds flying around. The storm had passed but the waves were still crashing onto the shore and you could see some of the fishing boats in the harbor as well, so it was really quite picturesque.
Anyway, by about midday the pilot had gotten the all clear to fly again and shortly after that we were off and flying back to the mainland.
I’ve stayed in quite a few hotels over the years, but I’ll never forget that one,it was just so different,more like staying with an old friend in their house because the atmosphere was very homey and not like most commercial hotels.
