I made another comment already, but also: Uberspace!

They're a shared hoster with a pay-what-you-want/can model. They have pretty solid documentation for most things one could care about. I had some problems a few times (which were all caused by me doing something wrong), and whenever I had to email them I got a helpful and friendly reply within a short time. They always helped me fix the issues, even if it was my fault and/or took a few steps to properly diagnose. They also have a blog where they share some behind-the-scenes info, which is always interesting.
