Other ways people say it
The same idea, said differently. Roughly in the order you'll hear them.

What usually trips people up
- Asking on checkout morning — the room may already be sold through the app by then, and the clerk genuinely cannot undo it; the night before is the reliable moment.
- Expecting the same rate — walk-in extension prices can differ from your booking app, so ask the price with the room and decide with the number in hand.
- Forgetting the room change — extensions sometimes move you to another room, which means packing; ask 换房间吗 (am I changing rooms?) before you say yes.
What you might hear back
- 可以，加一晚三百八。Kěyǐ, jiā yì wǎn sānbāi bāYes — one more night is 380 yuan.
- 明晚有房，要换房间。Míngwǎn yǒu fáng, yào huàn fángjiānThere's a room tomorrow, but you'd change rooms.
- 您在系统里重新订一下。Nín zài xìtǒng lǐ chóngxīn dìng yíxiàPlease rebook in the system.
