Cultural Tip
In many Spanish‑speaking hotels, the first digit often indicates the floor, so 402 usually means the fourth floor, second door. Native speakers may say the number as "cuatrocientos dos" or, more informally, "cuatro cero dos". Remember to keep the article 'la' because 'habitación' is feminine; dropping it sounds unnatural.
