A room at the Hotel Albergo Azzi in Florence, Italy
The terrace at the Hotel Albergo Azzi in Florence, Italy

The Azzi has the Boho atmosphere of a hostel but without the grungy backpacker/slacker feel.

It's run by a pair of artist/musicians (hence the nickname, "Inn of the Artists") who love to share info on their beloved city over breakfast at the big family-style table, and are keen to strum the guitar on the narrow terrace in the evenings.

Rooms are simple but bright, many with wood plank floors and a dash o' faux 18th-century styling to the furnishings. All in all, it's a pretty homey joint, and there are shared rooms available for hostel-oriented cheapskates.

Actually, it's but one of several cheap hotels that fill this building in a hotel-choked street between the train station and the center of town, so if you strike out here, chances are pretty good of finding a room elsewhere in the building.
