The location of that hotel is *great* (I don't know the hotel itself, but I think it's one of the relatively small ones on that street; they look okay). It's on Leidsekade in the heart of the city, right on the water, just around the corner of Leidseplein, which is pretty much the busiest nightlife square.
Note that Leidseplein is normally *not* the busiest and most atmospheric square prior to football games. Rembrandtplein is normally busier (also because connections to the ArenA are easier from there). Away fans tend to stay in the area of Dam Square mostly.

Ummm, lemme think... No :-)
» Why is the official website for Ajax, called Ajax angels ?
Ha! :-) You mean 'Ajax Engels'. That's just the name for the (crap) English version of the site. It means 'Ajax English'.
Of course we're all 'angels', but that's not the point here.

Flemish and Dutch are linguistically the same, but there are very distinct differences in pronounciation and choice of words. Flemish people use many French words and pure, 'old fashioned' Dutch words. Dutch is more modern, but (the downside of that) also more polluted with English/American words. Also: Flemish has a very wide range of very hard to understand provincial dialects. In practice it is sometimes a bit hard to understand each other, so Flemish-speakers are usually subtitled on Dutch TV and the other way round, even though it's technically the same language.
People from Antwerp or Ghent, however, speak Flemish in a very 'Dutch' way and are easy for Dutchies to understand. In general, Flemish speech is softer and more melodic. It sound gracious: a bit like French. Dutch is louder, more harsh and (alright then) simply more ugly ;-)
» Ajax didn't he die in the movie Troy ;-?
You're kidding me... Ajax is dead? That's bad news! ;-)
Seriously: I didn't see that movie yet, to be honest.
