There are plenty of places to go to in Budapest. I would recommend bars Simpla and Kuplung, jazz pub Fat Mo's, club Morrisons and Inside. Moreover, spas are not to be missed. As well as cultural activities such as exhibitions in the Fine Arts Museum.

Personal comments
We found the flat ourselves; however, I heard that the dormitories provided by the school were quite bad (quite dirty, noisy) and expensive. The only advantage is that it is very close to school.

Personal comments
Exams were too easy, especially, during the course. However, at the end of the course requirements for examinations were not communicated well enough to the foreign students.

The level of studies is pretty low; however, if you want to study marketing, it's quite good. On the other hand, the city and cultural life is amazing in Budapest.

I have been learning in English in my home university; therefore, I improved my German (I was living with Germans) and French (I studied French and communicated with French) more.
