Indeed ~ nice place and not too pricey. Also convenient for tram routes 2 and 2a to and from the Railway Station and The Dam. Good bar about half a mile away. I slipped out one night at 7 pm when staying in the Cok with Mrs S#1 (yes I took her there too, she had a migraine that night) and went to the bar. Got into an endless game of cribbage/drinking Amstel (prolly the World's best beer) with the owner(Dutch/Irish chap) and a couple of locals and went back to the hotel after brekky the following day. I was in a lot of trouble with the wife
What I like most about Amsterdam is that it never closes. You can eat, drink, smoke good pot all day and night. As long as you don't get silly the locals smile indulgently and invite you to their homes to carry on the party.
I s'pose you'll be window shopping then
Bin there, dun that
I did in fact take Mrs S#2 there to view the "windows". We were on honeymoon and a chap sprang out in front of us and announced "Good clean girls, you follow me they will take care of you" all this was directed at me as if the wife wasn't there. In one of my quicker moments I responded with "No thanks mate ~ I've brought my own". The new wife thought this a wonderful thing to have said ~ well she was easily impressed in those far off early days
