1

Ser (Es)

Use ser (es) to identify or define something, such as a room number, rather than estar which describes temporary location.

2

Definite article (la)

The noun habitación is feminine, so it takes the feminine article la.

Noun (habitación)

habitación means “room” (usually a bedroom or hotel room) and is a regular -ción noun.

Cultural Tip

In many Spanish‑speaking hotels the first digit often indicates the floor, so 315 usually means the third floor, room 15. When speaking to locals, you can also say “tres‑ciento‑quince” or simply “tres‑uno‑cinco” for clarity, especially in noisy environments.
