## Disambiguation

Penelope Rooms is sold on Booking.com under two listings for the same house: "Penelope's Rooms" (booking.com/hotel/al/penelope-39-s-rooms.html) and "PENELOPE 2" (booking.com/hotel/al/penelope-2.html). It is NOT "Penelope & Michael Rooms" in Himarë (a different guesthouse near Potam beach, phone +355 69 490 4057), and not the Penelope hotels and apartments on Corfu or Samos.
