If you wish to extend your stay in Europe, you have the choice between renting an apartment and staying in a hotel. If you prefer a hotel (better for stays of 1-2 days), there are several affordable, clean option throughout Europe.

BAILLY RECOMMENDED
“If a few of you will travel together in France, Italy, or other European countries, I suggest renting an apartment. If you plan on arriving early in Rome or extending your stay in Venice, I recommend staying in the same locations. I recommend the same thing for arriving early in Madrid or staying longer in Barcelona.”
