The 1st hotel we checked into had a card on the table saying that there was No Pot Smoking allowed in the room, otherwise there would be a $300 fine. So we checked out, and had to scramble to find a new place to stay.

When we got to the room, it said Chet Baker Suite. It was then that we looked on the internet for some research as to why this room in Amsterdam had his name on it, and we found the history.
