Dear Tom, Dear Tess,
Thank you for your service, all went well. The only remark is that the hotel does not dispose of many parking slots, so we might reconsider it for next year.
Thanks

I was very happy with my stay at Novum Hotel Lichtburg am Kurfurstendamm***. I'm happy with the standard. It is clean and very well located. And for the price you pay is worth it. Thank you very much. For next edition I will make sure to let you know.
