Guys and Gals, help a lady out!
So just booked spur of the moment flights to Amsterdam next month! The 23rd till the 26th!! But I'm really struggling to find a nice apartment or houseboat for the five of us that we can smoke in! Especially because I've just found out its some national holiday or something?
Does anyone know of any lovely little city center places we can get for three nights reasonably cheap? Don't really want to be spending more than E80 a night but I know E100's more like it.
Thanks dudes!
Bee.

Queens Day, April 30th, is probably the biggest holiday in the Netherlands. That said, most accommodations raise their price and have probably been booked. 100E will not get you very far looking for a 5 person room. Have you checked the booking sites?
http://www.booking.com http://www.easytobook.com http://www.hotels.nl http://www.eurobookings.com I wish you luck, you're going to need it!
Peace,
Balou

I'll give them all a check! I meant E100 per person sorry! I know we'd never get a room for any less than that!
