Students: hotel recommendations

Florence: The hotel I booked for Florence was through venere.com(great website) and was called Pendini. It was 180.00 EUR and worked wonderfully for five people. The room and bathroom were very clean and spacious and the location, piazza dell Repubblica, was perfect.
