Dear Tom,
Hope you are well.
I wanted to say thank you for your helps for the hotel reservation during A+A 2023.
I would like to know, if you can do any price offer to us for 2025, if we use again your agency.
We are very satisfied with your service, but as we are hiring more people and getting bigger group, if we can reduce the cost per night, it would be grateful.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Dear Tom,
We all had a good stay at Motel One in Dusseldorf. Clean, simple rooms but good showers and beds. I stayed one more night which was paid by a cancellation from one of us at the first night. Very reasonable. Am on the way back and we had a succesfull Anuga.
Thanks dor your help.
Best regards,
Martha
