a cool place that i've never been able to stay at(it's popular and small) is the 'hemp hotel amsterdam' prices are about the same as a bad budget hotel if you got 2 sharing. you get to stay in a hemp room sleeping under hemp sheets you get a vegi/hemp b'fast. they only accept c.c payment. tel. 0031 (0)20 625 4425
if you wanna chance it and just turn up and look for a hotel try 'vvv'(tourist info) on platform 2 of centraal station, there's also a 'vvv' outside the station to the left but platform 2 is normally quicker. on the 'damrak'(1 min walk from station) there's also 'amsterdam hotel service' hotel prices around 50 euro per person per night are normal but the best prices are bookings.nl.
as for coffeeshops, we have a vast choice.
but you wan't go far wrong if you try these:-
dutch flowers , singel 387
some of the best weed/hash in the dam
goa, kloveniersburgwal 42
try the jack herrer or temple ball
amnesia, herengracht 133
smoke and see the ladys of the night at the same time
tweedy, vondelstraat 104
go here if you don't mind paying a high price for top quality. try (super) creme melana, 20,15 euro gram respective
there are a lot of coffeeshops on the 'oudezijds voorburgwal' but the greenhouse at number 191 is pretty cool with a good selection of dope
need anymore info, let me know :thumbsup:
psst...i want two free tickets to amsterdamn :D
I wanted to try to set up going to Amsterdam, But I live in the states, Located in Texas.
Ive checked ticket prices and it said like 1,200 USD.:(
thanks amsterdammed

its about 25mins from asmterdam main centre but that suits me cos i wanna chill i dont wanna be in the heart of amsterdam. i wanna chill not just go coffeeshops.

BTW there is 4 of us, i heard rotterdam is really nice too but i know nothing about that lol
Rotterdam is very nice. I was born there. :)Quote:

I suggest staying at a hostol. Unless you plan to do more than just sleep, but if you're just going to be sleeping, find a hostol to stay at. They can be as cheap as $20 a night.
That's bullshit dude! This time of year is very expensive. Try around October through Feburary--the ticket prices come waaayyy down. Avoid Christmas though, since it's expensive at Christmas and New Years.Quote:
