I switched from Hetzner to these guys few months ago. They are in the same price range but offer DDOS protection (Hetzner just null-routes you in such situations), which can be handy. Basically you get what you pay for. Not much of a customer support, but quite cheap compared to rest of the market. Useful for playing around or as a development box. The servers are in France (you can choose from a few datacenters), so good latency towards Europe's visitors. If anybody wants to tests them let me know, I can give you temporary access to one of my boxes.
