Booking.com

Anyone used these for a trip?

It says it doesn't include 5% city tax so how is that paid ?

It makes my trip to the Amrath in March a lot cheaper and I just wonder is it too good to be true when booking direct with the hotel costs more ?

I don't see why Theres a difference what's the catch?

Current apartment advice / tips / info

Hi. I have just completed my 20th trip to Amsterdam.

Re: Do you carry your passport?

So is a drivers license acceptable?

60e is ok, I will take the risk and not carry it and behave myself on the streets.

I don't smoke weed in the street but do walk late after a few beers around town.I never carry my passport it worries me that I would lose it.

What do they do if you don't have it?
