Massage Amsterdam tonight: booking the evening while the sightseeing day is still going
Written for visitorsRequests for tonight are usually written somewhere between the last museum and the walk home. That timing works for you: the day is nearly over, you know how tired you are, and there is still time to shape the evening before you reach your own door.
Tonight is the word that opens a large share of the booking messages that reach this house, and nearly all of them come from people who are still out. They sit on a bench beside a canal or stand in a tram with a map in one hand. A massage in Amsterdam for tonight is the plainest booking there is, because the day has already told you most of what the message needs to say. You can already guess the hour you will reach the room, and which part of you has done the work. All that is left is to put it into four lines.
What a request for tonight should hold
Start with the address where you are sleeping, with the floor and the room number, because she is coming to you and not the other way round. Then give the hour you expect to be back, rather than the hour you happen to be writing. Add the length you have in mind and, if you have looked through the therapists, the name you would like. A line about the day is welcome as well: the distance covered, the museum queue, the bag that grew heavier after lunch.
Massage Amsterdam tonight and the forty to sixty minutes
The wait starts when the booking is confirmed, not when your first message leaves the phone. Write at four asking for eight, and the confirmation is timed so that her knock comes around eight. Write from the room at nine and ask for as soon as possible, and forty to sixty minutes after the confirmation is when to listen for her. The arrival window is identical in every central district, so a hotel beside the station waits exactly as long as a flat in De Pijp.
Who is free this evening
Each woman keeps her own diary and decides which hours she takes. The reply names who has an opening at your hour, together with the figure printed on her profile and the arrival window, and nothing is held for you until you accept all three. If the name you asked for is already taken, the reply says so plainly and offers whoever is free instead. A late hour or a busy Saturday adds nothing to the figure.
The wait before she knocks
Use the wait well. A warm shower brings you back from the street faster than a sit on the edge of the bed. Turn the heating up a notch, since lying still after a day outdoors feels colder than walking did. Clear the maps and chargers off the bed, switch the ceiling light off and leave a lamp on. She brings towels and oil, so the room needs nothing further from you.
If this is your first booking with the house, half the fee is paid once the hour is agreed, even for this evening, and the rest is handed over at the door. A guest the house already knows, asking for one or two hours later the same day at a city address, pays the whole amount on arrival. The deposit entry lists every case in which money goes ahead.
