Booking a happy ending massage in Amsterdam, correctly
Bookings here are written rather than spoken, and four facts in the opening message are enough to get a complete answer back. Nothing is held until that answer has been agreed in the thread, and nothing about the session itself is agreed there at any point.
A booking runs in four moves. You write. An answer comes back carrying a name, a figure and an arrival window. Where a deposit applies, half the fee goes before she leaves. Then she travels, which is forty to sixty minutes to any central address in the city.
The four facts a booking actually runs on
Where. The building or the street, and the room number as soon as you have one. If the street door is locked after a certain hour, or visitors are asked to be met downstairs, put that in the message instead of discovering it together on the doorstep.
When. In Amsterdam time. A phone still keeping the time of the country you flew in from is the likeliest cause of a botched start, and it costs an hour that nobody gets back.
How long. An hour, ninety minutes, two hours, three hours, or the eight hour block. If you are unsure, say how much of the evening is actually yours and a length will be proposed against it.
Who, or what sort of hour. A name from the roster, or a line about the kind of hour you want: talkative or quiet, one therapist or two, a language that would be easier than English today.
What the reply contains, and what it never contains
The answer names a therapist, gives the figure and gives a window rather than a single minute. Forty to sixty is honest for the centre, so plan against the far end of it and you will not be caught unready. One word confirms all three, and nothing is asked of you before that: no form, no account, no card details typed into a page.
What the reply never contains is any description of a session. Ask for a format and you get an answer. Ask for anything past a format and the reply moves on politely without addressing it, which is not coyness and not a hint. Your therapist decides what her session includes, says so at the start of the visit and holds to it, and the thread has no authority over that at all.
The deposit, in plain halves
Half the fee confirms seven kinds of booking: anything arranged more than twenty-four hours before it starts, the eight hour block at any start time, any booking with two therapists, any room at Schiphol or an airport hotel, any peak date such as King's Day or Pride or the stretch between Christmas and New Year, any session of three hours or more, and the first booking anybody makes here. Only a returning guest's same-day hour or two at a city address is settled in full at the door.
Read as halves, it stops being abstract. A first hour sends half its figure ahead and settles the other half in the room. The eight hour block sends half of its own single figure, and two therapists across two hours send half of a figure four times the size of that first hour. It travels by card, Revolut, Wise or cryptocurrency, on details that appear inside the confirmed thread and nowhere else. Cash cannot serve as a deposit, for the plain reason that a deposit is settled before she sets out and cash only moves once she is in the room. Neither bank transfer nor PayPal is accepted here.
Calling it off, and moving it
Calling off a booking creates no liability to the house for damages at any stage. Where a deposit is held, what the house keeps is the share of the fee already earned when your message lands: more than twenty-four hours out, none of it, and the whole deposit goes back; inside the final day but before she has left, half the deposit stays and half returns; once she is on her way, the deposit stays. Two exceptions take the edge off even that last case. If the hour is taken by somebody else, the deposit is repaid in full. If the loss can be shown to be smaller than what was held back, the smaller figure is all that stays.
Where no deposit was taken, nothing at all is owed while she is still at home. Once she has set out, the journey share of the fee is owed and the house asks for nothing beyond it. Moving a booking is free once, provided the request reaches the thread more than twenty-four hours ahead and the new date falls inside a fortnight, and the deposit travels across intact. A second move, or one asked for inside the final day, is measured on the notice scale exactly as a cancellation would be. The rest of what guests write in to ask sits on the questions page.
Half of the agreed figure is sent before she leaves on most bookings here, a first one included, and how much stays behind after a cancellation depends on when your message arrives; a returning guest's same-day hour or two at a city address is settled at the door. Booking terms.
