Dam Square, as it sleeps
The hotels around the square are mostly large, busy and used to visitors at every hour. Lobbies are staffed all night and key-card lifts are common, so meet her downstairs or give her your room number when she messages. Rooms facing the square can hear street performers until late on summer evenings, while rooms on the Damrak side hear trams; the side streets toward the Spuistraat are quieter. Some older hotels near the Nieuwendijk have narrow corridors and small rooms, so clear the bed and floor before she arrives. If you are staying in a rented flat above a shop, the street door may be shared with the business below and locked at night; mention that in the thread. The square itself is well lit and patrolled, which makes arrival after midnight straightforward.
