wake-up call
How would you ask someone at the reception desk of a hotel to give you a wake-up call at a certain time the next morning? I usually ask:
"Could you set the alarm-clock in my room for ....... tomorrow morning?"
But it now sounds incorrect to me, as they don't really wake you up by setting alarm clocks, but by simply making a phone call.
