Amsterdam Cribs
Re: Amsterdam Cribs
Crib Extreme XO is lovely (basement aprtment opposite Old Church)
just wish the price hadn't risen nearly E300 since our last stop there which pushed it out of the budget
(less on accom , more on smoke as always & no prizes for guessing where I am staying )
Is roughly E300 a "normal" rise in price for an apartment If I had booked it , it would have been roughly 2 years to the day

Sending out the good vibes to those that need them right now

Re: Amsterdam Cribs
Just booked to stay here for my birthday in March, Crib Extreme x1 (the one in the pics on the first page of this thread).
Highly excited!
Anyone stayed in this recently? It states there's a couch in the living area, but the pictures on their site only show chairs?

Re: Amsterdam Cribs
Hi everyone. Long time lurker, but I've never posted before. What an excellent forum, loads of friendly advice!
Anyway, I just thought I'd add my two cents re Amsterdam Cribs. I've stayed with them twice now, once last year in Crib Extreme 4, and more recently in the Crib Extreme 1 a couple of weeks ago. The guy who greets you is very friendly and offers advice on places to go, gives you a map etc. There is a selection of bongs, pipes, grinders etc, and even some left over weed and beers if you get lucky!
Awesome apartment - don't really know what else to say! Perfect in every way. There is a huge living area, much bigger than in Crib 4, and yes, there is a sofa which can fit 4 people on at a push (however beware, one end sinks badly as I found out when lumping my ass down on it)! There is also a couple of those 'pooof' thingys to put your feet up on/sit on, and also a dining table with 4 chairs.
Having 2 bathrooms and 2 showers was great, no queues in the morning! The kitchen is really good too, with a proper oven/hob, and even better - a dishwasher!! Note - the kitchen and bathrooms are down a few stairs. There is a bedroom on the main floor, and another up a few stairs.
Excellent location, can be a little noisy as it's bang in the middle of the RLD, but I think most of the noise was coming from the flat above who seemed to be partying 24/7! No problem though when stoned, you just pass out!
It's also a 10 second walk to FEBO too, should the late night munchies attack!
Have a great time, I can't wait to go back!

Re: Amsterdam Cribs
this place is excellent for smoking
just came back from Amsterdam having paid for the apartment via hostelworld
Pros
Able to cook food (saves cost)
fairly cheap (was around £50 per person)
can control heating to your liking
clean, comfortable (rocking chairs when your stoned )
RLD less then a minute walk
Voyagers 2 min walk
free papers, lighters, pipes and bongs
i dont think i have anything bad to say for this place]
this place is great location wise and in summer would be great (i was there feb 2012)
Anyone who goes will love it

Re: Amsterdam Cribs
someone asked earlier... there's a huge couch that could seat 4-6 people and 4 chairs with a table and a coffee table... very comfortable.

Re: Amsterdam Cribs
I have stayed at with Amsterdam cribs twice and April will be my third time. All i can say is these guys are great, the apartments have everything you need to make your stay comfortable. Eric( one of the guys that runs cribs) gave us some info on where to eat, what shops to avoid in general he some good advice.
The apartment felt like your own place.( made me wish it was)
