"Not sure why you posted twice... Perhaps no on responded quick enough? OK... here it is..." lovemedellin, then why did you plug yourself twice and continue the mistake? And THREE plugs in one day? Geez....Peter? Moderators?

Simple Vaughnyb...stay away from taking too much advice from people that don't have that much to give. Also don't pay people to do the same work you can easily do on your own.

#1. Come down and rent a private room at www.tigerpawhostel.com for you and the wifey. Nice place, great location and upscale setting for the private room thing along with a fantastic price that doesnt come close to your $40.00 night budget. (no I dont own the place)

#2 When you get here, search the local classifieds for PRIVATELY OWNED apartments for rent (ones that don't have the bold name of a rental company listed with the phone number, or have like 5 numbers listed) It's pretty hard to rent from a rental agency as new transplants (wo cedula, credit, bank accounts and such), so your easiest and safest bet is to rent privately and plan to pay a 6 month advance rent just to satisfy the owner and get in quickly.

There you go...everything you needed right here on PBH and didnt even have to venture off to other fly-by-night websites or pay people to do work for you. I think you'll find a plethora of information here that will keep you busy and satisfied!

The "lovemedellin website" is a piece of crap made by some moron who has only been to Medellin once...you'd be better off reading the Lonely Planet advice from a guy who never even came here!

$700 per month is a lot. .For 700 to 900 thousand pesos you shoud get you a very nice 2 bedroom apartement in a good area. Your problem will be that you will need a co signer. I got around that by offering to pay several months rent in advance. After the initial several months advance bubbler, I pay month to month. right not the exchange is about 1660 colombian pesos per US dollar in the exchange places. It´s a better exchange if you use an ATM card.
