More often than not I try and find affordable 'apartments' for us to stay in. Quite often these apartments are barely more expensive than low cost hotels and allow us to cook our own meals. It is definately a compromise for me as one of my favourite things when travelling is dining out - both for the foody experience and for the cultural experience. However, given that Aaste is a picky 13 year old vegetarian and that food can be a major cost - renting apartments works for us. Of course, when we are lucky, it also provides free internet access which is also helpful.
Our tiny, but wonderful apartment in Barcelona.

Our apartment in Granada.
The bedroom in Granada. The place is called Arte Vida and is filled with original art work, some of which is quite good.
