My daughter and I will be studying at Ulpan Akiva in Netanya (Ramat Poleg) for a month from the last week in June. 1) How should we find a safe and reasonable apartment? 2) How much should we exect to pay for minimal space--just a bedroom kitchen & bath? I have found listings on lagur.com for rentals under1000, then I contact the realtor and get much higher rates. 3) How can I get around with a young daughter and no car, cheaply? Is there any way to find bus schedules online?
