De Old Museum is in serious need of renovation. The Museum decided to hold a fundraising auction. Donations were sought from many area businesses. The historic Seacliff Hotel agreed to donate a weekend stay for two to be sold at the auction. At the auction, Phil purchased the weekend at Seacliff Hotel for $500. Subsequently, erosion caused the Seacliff Hotel to slide into the ocean. However, Phil paid the $500 to De Old Museum and, with Phil's agreement, De Old Museum spent $300 for a weekend stay for two at another hotel. What is De Old Museum entitled to recover from Seacliff Hotel?

A)$500, because Phil paid this amount in reliance on the hotel's promise.

b) $300, because the destruction of the hotel acts as a partial discharge if a substitute performance is possible.

c) Nothing, because impossibility prevented the hotel from performing.

d) Nothing, because there was no consideration for the hotel's promise.
