Hi Simon,
Lovely to talk to you earlier on. Thanks for your assistance here, we didn’t have any problem with the rooms/bookings which is all you can hope in these cases!
We’d be in touch for 2020 as I can’t confirm how many people will attend and on what dates.
Thanks,

It's a budget hotel do not expect much, they provide clean room but small room size. The hotel not far from Messe Duesseldorf by car but if you want to take public transport between the hotel and Messe Duesseldorf it's not convenient. But if you prepare to take taxi so it's not far from the place about 15 minutes
