“Hotel ok, but unbearable showers mean cannot recommend this place”

Rooms were small, but ok for what we wanted, I would have given this place 4 stars due to price and location, but the showers make this impossible to rate highly. They are clean, but either ice cold or boiling hot, no inbetween. we tried different floors but no joy. ruined what would have been a reasonable place, i have had better water temperature in 75p hostels.

Couples time in Amsterdam
Easyjet flight for sub 30 quid, then to hotel which was small, but right near train station and in a great area of brown cafes, selling quality brews at fair prices. Stroll around red light district, then bed.
Next day spent sightseeing, including the free brewery in a windmill which IŽd never been to before (this being my 4th trip to …

On Wednesday a big treat is expecting us: Afie takes us to Delft, a town that she loves. We therefore take the train at 9:10 – as expected, the train is on time. Delft is the quaintest old town even under the rain. We visit there the Vermeer museum, the Ode Kerk (old church) where he is buried, and the Nieuwe ...

Tonight was the last night we would have to live in such close quarters before we fly to London and John moves on to Rotterdam. Our time with John has been most enjoyable and we are looking very forward to catching up with him again in Germany later in the ...
Contiki Begins in Canal City!
... before mum and dad drove me over to the airport. After check-in (and already being over the weight limit) we sat in a cafe and chatted before I'd say my good byes to them also. They followed me to the departures gate, which was clear glass. I could still see them after going through, and they continued to wave and act like fools up until I had to have my bag checked. They actually got into trouble for coming too close to the security area! This is why I love them.

Road Trippin' - Part 2
... chowed down on pizza and beer at one of the numerous cafes in the district. We all got what we ordered and the waiter spoke English, so everyone was happy. We took a final stroll down to the shopping district Galleries La Fayette, which is the French equivalent of Harrods. So it is full of very nice items, all with greatly inflated price tags. Not really the place where scummy backpackers fit in. The markets outside selling tacky souvenirs seemed to suit us better, so we spent some ...
