Title: room sharing for Amsterdam Bitcoin conference 25-28 Sept 2013
Post by: miernik on September 19, 2013, 05:54:56 AM
I see there is not thread about possibly sharing accommodation, so I'm starting one.

If anyone is interested in sharing a room, with me, to save costs, contact me. Both if you already have a room and if you are still looking for one. Usually hotel rooms are for 2 people, even cheaper per person for 3-4 people, so if someone wants to group up, let me know, and we'll take a hotel or something!

I need a place for 3 nights, coming Wednesday. Preferably with kitchen access, as I am on a diet which is difficult/next-to-impossible without homemade food. Besides kitchen I need nothing fancy, sleeping on the floor is OK.

I arrive Wednesday in Eindhoven at 13:25, so will be around 16:00 in Amsterdam.

Amsterdam certainly is expensive for accommodation.

There is a bit more availability out at Schiphol airport. Not that it is cheaper really but the hotels are more modern. I think it means about a 20 minute transit each way though.

I highly recommend AirBNB.com I booked a sick apartment for $200 a night https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/390894

The Marriott wanted $500 a night.

AirBnB FTW

Unfortunately only for "instant bookable places":

Most places are not "instant bookable", as "instant bookable" means the host doesn't have a chance to review the deal before its accepted, so they are more the places which function as a hotel and not a private house.

So I just placed a request for one place there, but unfortunately I had to give my MasterCard, ugrhh!!!

My Co-Founder and I will be in Amsterdam the 26th-28th and would like to share a place.  We don't mind cheap.  Contact me at dan@zeroblock.com if you are interested.
