Does anyone know anything about this hotel? The website looks cool and I will be staying here in two weeks. I have read that it is a non-smoking hotel but can someone recommend a place for a late night j before hitting the sack?

I'd change hotels if I was you as it's situated quite a distance from the centre of Amsterdam.

I know that this is about a twenty minute train ride from centraal station but couldn't beat the deal we got. Well worth the price of the train each day.

Is Amsterdam really chill enough to where I can casually go outside this hotel at the airport and light a joint as long as I am not blowing it in someone's face? As you all must know, that is such a foreign concept to someone coming over from the states.
