Hi -- where is everyone? I'll be in Donetsk in mid-Sept. looking for an apt. Does anyone have any ideas? Near the Donbas Hotel would be ideal. BTW, I've been in Poland for a couple of years, so I know what it's like to live simply and frugally. (ie. NO high-end apts. from agents, please). If anyone already living there wouldn't mind renting me a single room till Christmas, that would be great, too.

Hi everyone!
The most reliable way to rent an apartment in Donetsk is working with an agent. Me and my bfr was searching a flat in a city center for a long time without help (papers, advertising), because we thinking that it would be cheap. But when we decided to use the services an agent, we find a suitable flat with a cheap price. Of course we have paid the agent, but she deserved it.
But you must beware of swindlers.
