    Amsterdam Trip - 2 people more needed! Read me.
    Hi Guys,

    Basically, in a nutshell, a couple of friends and I (2 male, 1 female) are organizing a trip to Amsterdam, however the cost will be reduced further (hostel, etc) if we can find a couple of more people to go. I've asked people in our circles, but its a bit short notice so they were either busy with exams or unable to come for other reasons.

    Roughly speaking, we're talking quite short notice; roughly between 11th and 14th/15th of June. If anyone is interested, preferably around the Coventry/Birmingham area (Ideal if you go to Warwick Uni too!) then PM me!

    We are a fun bunch, although not overly wild, group of people and so we expect the same; We don't want to have someone who sits in the hostel all day, but I don't plan to skinny dip into the river either.

    Thanks,
    Sunny

    Literally dont know yet! Early stages. Which is a good/cheap place to stay? Interested in getting a 5-people room and splitting costs?

    OP hostels usually charge per bed, not per room. Extra people wouldnt reduce your costs.

    Yeah Amsterdam is a tricky one. It is pretty expensive, relatively. We are staying at Inner Amsterdam as it had the best rate/location scale (that we made up haha) it's a good punt so we'll see what happens. We just wanted to book asap so we got the cheapest deal they had. The longer we waiting the more rooms were booked up.

    It also depends what kind of vibe you want. We are moving from that place for our last night to one of the most recommended party hostels from all my mates who have been before but a bit on the pricey side. You only go to Amsterdam once eh?
    Unless you love it of course... We'll see
