Unless I was working in a team, I wouldn't bother using a hosting service.
If you have the repository on you own box you can use file://... URLs
instead of svn://... or https://... or whatever. That way you don't
have to have a subversion server running. (Nothing to administer!)
Your svn client (e.g., Tortoise) will just be accessing the repository
directly. And if you use FSFS instead of Berkeley DB, you can even
access it over a shared network drive.
BTW, with TortoiseSVN, creating a repository is ludicrously easy: You
just right-click in the directory where you want to put the repository
and then do TortoiseSVN/Create repository here.
