Gonna post again

Arriving 14.11 (Friday) staying that night, spending 15.11 (Sat) in ilovetechno and returning to stay 16.11 (Sun) and depart 17.11 (Mon) morning.

Looking for centrally located place for 3 guys, pref not a dorm, or if it is, just for the 3 of us. ie a triple. Clean, safe and central, alot to ask? Bear in mind we're not in Amsterdam on the Saturday night.

Recommendations please! (Ive searched like mad and most are a bit iffy, considered the Flying Pig Uptown!) 4 bed dorm seems an ok-ish option right now, cheap and central I guess. Pref smoker friendly or with some outdoor smoking area.

Please and Thanks <3

Cheers dude, emailed them, I've heard Amsterdam is packed out that weekend, hoping against hope I dont have to slop it out in some back packer dive :/

The camping huts at Zeeburg sleep 4 and are amongst some of the cheapest ways to stay in Amsterdam. Not as central as you might have hoped but only a 10min tram ride away... So laid back there its unture!

Amsterdam cribs do cheap smoking rooms...

There isnt a hope in hell I'm staying anywhere more than a 15 minute walk from the train station.

The cribs need 3 day min stay we need 2 seperate days. GHE never emailed me back ;(

If you find yourselves without a booking before you go, Diddy, try the Hotel Beursstraat, close to the Grasshopper on Beursstraat... They don't book online, so you've a fair chance of getting a room there if you get there early enough.

I've stayed there three times now with no complaints...

I'm not sure but i'd say if you and ur mates are looking for single night stays a hostel may be your only hope m8

Ok Im sorted in the GHE, laura was extremely helpful, as was your suggestion Boner.

Os helpful was Laura that though Im an idiot and booked too slowly she upgraded us to an apartment for one of the nights for no extra cost, and will look after our gear (luggage

) when we go to ILT.

I've promised her hugs of course!
