Thx Kermit, but were travelling THIS Friday not June, i have used Hotel.nl but the amount of available options has deminished 10 fold in a few days and the only ones that are available are 15km from Amsterdam, and that defeats the object of going.

If any of you chaps live there in Spacious Accom and fancy some extra Euros and 2 friendly stoner lodges hehe im open to offers...

thx guys

Dont shit it, if you head to future coffeeshop theres a place right next to it that has listings of all the spare rooms in town. Well they told me it was all the listings. Worse comes to worse your going to have to go there man, im sure you'll be able to find one hostel with a spare bed.

You could attempt a 72 hour session, there's things to do at every time of day. I've never attempted it so not sure what would happen, but I've survived a few 48 hour partys :)

Failing that no worries I'm sure you'll find somewhere to stay, even if not a hotel there's always hostels to keep you dry. - Hostel Meeting Point comes highly recommended from a group of us here.

Thx Alot guys..

I was just panicking a bit with having the lass with me and what not you need a place to stay,

I was super lucky managed to bag the retro room at the Greenhouse Effect, for 3 nights which im super happy about cause you cant get much more central than this...

Appreciate all the link postage guys... and all answers, peace and report coming soon.
