La Rotunda Sul Mare
You may think that apartments with private sundecks, views, and private kitchenettes would be a lot more expensive than hostels or hotels. But think again, because as of 2009 you can book a 6-bed private apartment for just 19 euros per person. This rate is great for families or groups. There are also 5-bed, 4-bed and triple private apartments, as well as twins and doubles, which are just 48 euros per night per room in 2009, which makes them cheaper than the rooms at Hotel Poggio del Sole and just a few euros more than the rooms for two in Ring Hostel.
