Good Morning Tracy,
how are you?
Just a quick feed back about Gideon Hotel.
Excellent, confortable, good cleaning, lovely position in the center of Nuernberg, good connection with the exhibition center.
Katharinenhaus parking place for the cars was just round the corner 5 minutes walking. Very good.
Breakfast not so much to be honest.
Check in a little bit complicate after 08.00 pm.
Generally speaking it was good.
Thank you so much for your co-operation.
Keep in touch.
Best Regrads.

I was sending 3 people to Anuga at the last minute and her help in finding lodging at a reasonable price, good location and quality hotel was outstanding. You have a winner with Michelle! She's definitely management material.
