After returning the room card and checking out at the front desk, you ask whether the hotel can hold your two bags until 4 p.m. The clerk gives you a luggage tag to complete and a claim tag to keep, which you will show when you return for the bags.

Common mistakes
Small fixes that make your Chinese sound natural.
1. Use the fixed expression 退房
Not natural
我想退房间。
Natural
我想退房。
Why
Hotel checkout is expressed with the fixed verb 退房; do not add 间.
2. Mark the storage endpoint with 到
Not natural
可以寄存下午四点吗?
Natural
可以寄存到下午四点吗?
Why
到 introduces the time until which the luggage will be stored.
3. Count luggage with 件
Not natural
我有两张行李。
Natural
我有两件行李。
Why
Use 件 for separate pieces of luggage; 张 counts flat objects such as tickets or sheets.
