Budapest, Hungary. Budapest has very easy access to what I consider the best transportation system I’ve ever experienced in a large city... the RER in Paris, Metro in Rome, GVB in Amsterdam or Metro in Prague don’t compare. You go out the front door of your apartment, walk to the corner and it’s two blocks to the Metro station one direction and one-and-a-half to the tram and a block to the bus... can’t ask for a better location. The cost for using the system is 13€ for a week pass on the Metro, trams and buses... a very good value, and you’re always within a couple blocks of the system from virtually anywhere in the city.

There are grocery stores, cafes and bars, internet access, movie theaters, basically what ever you want but a short walk from the apartment... another plus which goes with the location. Raday Utca has great restaurants and the food/drinks a of good value for being in a trendy area (about 4 blocks from the apartment).
