Thanks.
So "a room versus a suite" is one thing? What does versus mean here? Including? I feel a suite is bigger than a room. Am I on the right track?

The sentence you quoted means: first, offer the guests a traditional guest room; (if they don't like that) then offer them an executive level room (a fancier room than a guest room); if they don't like either, then, if the ones you showed were non-view rooms (rooms without a nice view), show them ones with a view; if they're still not satisfied, then show them the difference between a room and a suite (a suite is a room with additional space - that is, show them a traditional guest suite and an executive level suite).

The word "versus" here means "as compared to," the argument here being: a traditional guest room as compared to an executive level room; a room with a view as compared to a room without a view; a room as compared to a suite.

A suite has one or more additional rooms.
