Dear ken,
Hi – how have you been? In request to your letter I would hereby like to inform you about the hotel for your uncle. I find one, the Westin Hotel, but there are some good and bad points.
One of the main advantages about this hotel is that's it is comfortable and luxurious. Such as there's a swimming pool and a sauna. Another point in favour to this hotel is that they have a good prices. There're even a special discount in april and may.
However, this hotel also has some drawbacks. The main point against it it is that the location is rather out of the way. As a result, your uncle will has to walk about fifteen minutes to the nearest bus station. Another disadvantage is that can be difficult to find rooms, so your uncle will have to book early.
All in all, although. I firmly believe the Westin Hotel is a good choice, and you can safely recommend it to your uncle. Inform him that he can to book directly (see number at the bottom), or if you want me to do it just let me know. I look forward to hearing from you again.
Yours sincerely.
Joe
