Where would you suggest are nice and reasonable(in price) places to live in Budapest?

Locations?
Apartments/Condos/?
Furnished?
Cost range for that particular place? - I actually have an idea of the general cost range, from the "Cost of Living" post.
Short-term(4 months) to Long-term(1 year)

Thank-you in advance for any assistance.

Sorry that you don't get any replies

It always has been a quiet corner, our Hungarian corner,...sigh.

Maybe you could PM some of the members in Budapest?

Here is a website listing furnished apartment rentals. Top of the line, apparently.
Around 500 Euros per month rent.

I ordered one copy of a book entitled, "Hungary, a quick guide to customs & etiquette".
I got two copies by mistake. I will be happy to mail this little guide book (part of the Culture Smart series) to someone who could make good use of it-- perhaps someone who is moving there, or has just moved there. I will mail it to you for free if you give me your mailing address.
You can see who I am at www.ladauphine.com
This is not a scam--- just a goodwill gesture :-)
Yours, Ray in New Orleans

If noone that is just now moving here is interested (just in case) I would put my name on the list
I can even send you the money via Paypal.
But like I said, I'll wait and see if someone else wants to chime in first
You know, it's tough right now to get books here in the wild woods. Amazon doesn't ship Hungary no more
Cheers, Nicole

I have a copy of this book- is is excellent. I would recommend it to anyone considering coming here.

I guess you find a flat by now :-) However if anyone is interested, I'm aware of two services, offering flat rental for foreigners, they sent me acceptable offers:
1 budapestcityflats.com
2 budapesthotelservice.com

Buying English books in Hungary is possible again, because bookdepository.co.uk delivers to Hungary without postage fee!
I have tried it three times already, they are very good and usually quick.
