I have stayed in youth hostels a time or two. I've heard that there are convents where you can get cheaper accommodation. Can we compile a list by your posts?

In other posts, I have mentioned the Paris Zen Centre studio apartments. http://www.maisonzen.com/

In Rothenburg Ob Der Tauber, the youth hostel is great but in Bavaria, IYH are only for youth or for families travelling with children or teens. http://tinyurl.com/2jnh7

In Klosters in Switzerland (near Davos), we stayed in a family room in the youth hostel. Great location, friendly, good food served family style. http://www.jugendherbergen.ch/e/home.cfm

If you know of any interesting or reasonable accommodation, why don't you tell us about it? The posts will be archived for future reference.

Lots of us are on a budget!

Thanks.
