Visited Netherlands for 10 days. Great experience. Scene is quieter but worthwhile. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $69/day. Best part: variety.
Overall: 7.5/10. Solid destination.
AMA.

With respect, my experience was more mixed. But maybe I went at the wrong time.

Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were lower when I went. Maybe timing matters.

Adding my experience from 3 weeks ago.
The scene has stayed the same since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 20%.
