I’m not sure if I’d ever actually make the trip out there, but for a quite some time I’ve been interested in learning more about Amsterdam. Over the last year an old friend of mine kind of moved himself out there, but he’s heavy into the “rock & roll” kind of lifestyle that Amsterdam has to offer. So I looked into Amsterdam hotels just to get a general idea of how much it would cost me in the chance that I do actually get out there. I was actually surprised to find a few cheap hotels in the area that really weren’t that bad looking. Sure, when you go on vacation you don’t want to stay in some kind of a dive and that’s completely understandable to anyone involved. I wouldn’t recommend going to some horrible motel that costs $10 a night. I figure if you’re going on vacation you can find something in the $50-$80 range which is about what you’d spend for a decent two star here in the states. I was shocked to find out that a few hotels out there are in that price range and they look more like the three to four stars that we’d spend over $200 a night for.
