Some great ideas that add more options for travelers in Europe. We've stayed in hostels in Portugal, convents in Italy, and camped in Slovenia, for starters.

We're big on getting the most out of our limited budget when we travel, and we've found that traveling in Europe is often cheaper for us than traveling here in the U.S. - even after we throw in airfare. Europe tends to have many more original, small, and reasonably priced places to stay.

Another accommodation resource for travelers looking beyond traditional hotels is our own website, http://www.darngooddigs.com. Budget-minded travelers nominate their all-time favorite independently owned places to stay, and we publish the best of the best on Darn Good Digs. We now have reviews for hotels, guest houses, and b and b's in 15 European countries. It's true we're a bit biased, but we think it's a great way to learn about often hard-to-find cool places to stay!
