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 …
Homeland of the Tall & Beautiful
... so I was freezing!!!! But it cleared up and was actually quite nice the rest of the time we were out. We stopped into a restaurant called Pancakes! for lunch. Obviously we had pancakes, apple pancakes to be specific. They were authentically Dutch, and really delicious! We put some cinnamon sugar on them too!! Another insanely touristy thing we had to do, the Red Light District. We walked through it, ...
Sailing round the docks!
Amsterdam, city of canals, cycles, clogs, coaches and confetti. Actually I didn't see any of the latter - but who wants to spoil an alliterative run!!

The Original Sin City

Amsterdam es una ciudad preciosa, super pintoresca, no es solo joda de noche y coffee shops, tiene mucho arte, mucha vida.

“Hotel ok, but unbearable showers mean cannot recommend this place”
Reviewed Aug 25, 2011
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.
