Lets face it, your not just going to Amsterdam to see Ann Frank's house, your going to visit the notorious coffeeshops. This book starts you off with the history of Amsterdam, and it then breaks off into different sections like hotels and restuarants. Some guides might not stray into the touchy subjects such as prostitution and drugs. Yet this guide does not fear these. It has its own sections on sex and coffeeshops. It lists names of hotels, restuarants, and coffeshops all including a small description. The colored photos are also a nice part to the guide. The guide is also very easy to navigate through. If you purchase this guide, also purchase an Amsterdam map as with this guide, it does not have a pullout map or a very detailed one in the first place. It also does not have a star-rating system which is a minor let down. You might think about the Michelin guide because of its star rating system yet the Michelin guide is a bit conservative. It does not explore sex and drugs. None the less, this guide is extremely informative and will work very well with a color pullout map to help you navigate through the streets of Amsterdam.
