16 of us are riding to Amsterdam and struggling to find accommodation!
Somewhere near the City Centre with secure bike storage is pretty much our only requirements really.
Anyone been and have any suggestions?!
We used AirBnB for 6, most AirBnB I contacted wouldn't entertain cyclists, a few would but bikes needed to be stored outside in the street. I was lucky to find one big enough, and welcoming enough to allow us to bring the bikes in the Appt. it was a short 5min ride into the City, brand new development too so all clean and tidy. There are a lot of BnB's on AirBnB .. commercial BnBs so you should find something.
You'll have trouble finding storage for all folks and bikes in one place.
Heemskerk Stayokay hostel, a short train ride out, but totally worth it.

Cheers for the suggestions!
That Stayokay place looks great, but can see it being a little far out for some! Although Stayokay do have 3 places in the City with bike storage so that could be a winner!!
Yeah, we stayed at 3 Stayokays on our trip in the spring. Dordrecht, Utrecht and Heemskerk. They are the NL version of YHA, so bunk rooms, a good breakfast for not much cash. Evening meals too, but you need to book these ahead if you want them. Some of the hostels had open outdoor bike storage, the Heemskerk castle had a proper locked compound. We weren't bothered about staying in town, and taking the train with a bike is easy and cheap so it was nice to stay in the castle, good bar in there too, and a short ride down to the beach too.
