Thank you all!
Now that you have helped me this much, can you also give me tips about Amsterdam? I only have 3 nights there so I should be smart about where to visit. What neighborhood is the best to book my hotel in? Also, which places are must see in 3 days?

The city is not enormous so stay out from the centre and commute in from these areas or even Haarlem.
What to see, well lots of old boats, windmills, art, architecture, diamonds, museums. You coud hire a bike, but note that the rules of the bike in Amsterdam are .... well let's put it like this, they are very good at cycle commuting. You may not be.

Maybe watch a youtube video for the must see's. As far as areas are concerned, depends on what you want from a city. If that is a modicum of quiet at night book outside the canal ring. Although there are places more central that a lot of people of Fodors like. E.g. Residence Le Coin in Doelenstraat. Fire up booking.com and marvel at the steep hotel prices

I haven't been to Amsterdam for ages but what I have learned from reading TRs and other posts on this Forum is that if you want to see Anne Frank's House or the Riksmuseum, book asap.
