It sounds great because it's so close (3) ___to_____ everything we want to visit. It costs £50 for a single room, which is expensive, but we'd get 10% (4) ____off____ if we booked early. The Lansdowne Hotel is a lot bigger and costs £39 for a single room. It's further out, but apparently there are (5) ____lots____ of buses to the center and it takes about 35 minutes to get there. Personally, I think the Pickwick Hotel would be (6) __great______. It's closer, so we wouldn't have to (7) ____spend____ so much time and money traveling. With the discount, it'll be £45, so it's not that much more than the other one. Could you get in (8) __book______ and tell me if this is OK? Then I can call to (9) ________ the rooms. Looking (10) _____forward___ to seeing you.
