At the station and at the airport

The main airport of Holland Schiphol is a hub for both local airlines and international-class aircraft. At Schiphol Airport you can take advantage of luggage storage services (there are automatic and conventional luggage storage for up to one month at the airport) and an information center, as well as rent a mobile phone. The budget way from Schiphol airport to Amsterdam is a free city bus that runs on schedule.

Be wary of pickpockets on trains going from Schiphol airport to the Central Station, and also in trams No. 1, 2 and 5, going from the Central Station to the museum area. Typically, small thieves act in pairs: one distracts and the other steals a purse, and then both criminals leave the car - so be especially vigilant during stops.

If you travel by train, be careful with the signs on the platforms. Most of the trains run to or via Amsterdam Central Station, but it may be that a train approaching the underground station should not go to another city or country, but just to the other end of the city to the south station.

According to the comments of some tourists, in the evening, drunks and loud people from Arab countries occasionally appear on the city's auto and railway stations, so if you do not want trouble, bypass the station areas by side.

Hotel

Full information about hotels or youth hostels you can get at one of the tourist information points (located in the city center, indicated by the letter "VVV" - three blue checkmarks or a local "fairy-fairy-fairy") where you can also book a room with a discount of 25-30%. It is advantageous for those traveling by car to stop at one of the motels of the "Formula 1" system or in a suburban hotel.

In Holland, there is a national association of hotels that sets standards and conducts certification. You can always count on the courteous staff and the cleanliness of the rooms. Room service is included in the bill, but it is also customary to leave a maid and a porter tip (50 cents a day). In order to avoid unforeseen expenses, ask the guide about the rules of service at your hotel, and before checking out, check all the accounts. As a rule, cable TV and telephone calls from the room are paid separately (even calls through the city).
