Not so hot,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Frankfurt (Insight Guide Frankfurt) (Paperback)
I purchased this book to better my Frankfurt vacation. When I did not find it to be accurate, I checked the date and noticed it was several years old. Don't you think travel guides should only be sold if up to date? Should you not warn the buyer if the book is older?
