ゆうしょくごにおへやをじゅんびさせていただきます。おしょくじのあいだにおしきします。
We will prepare your room after dinner. We will lay out the futon while you are having your meal.
Gesture & etiquette
Look around the room, then make a sleeping motion or point at the floor.
Do not attempt to lay out the futon yourself unless explicitly told to. It is usually part of the ryokan's service.
