I also was thinking apartment because as you said above it feels more comfortable to them. How secure do you think the apartments are though?

I have never had any security problems, if you have ever seen the Russian front doors you will know why, usually steel with numerous types of lock and usually at least one inner door also. It's easier to get into Fort Knox than someones apartment  ;)

Shadow:
In many buildings not only the apartment has a steel door, but also there is someone sitting downstairs lookin to keep out trouble.
And in general Kiev is a safe city.

Evilferret:
Yeah I figured they where pretty safe just thought id ask in case someone had any bad experiences :)

Also for the more intrepid traveller you can ask your friends to find a private apartment for you. I've rented out a spare room or full apartment (while the owner went to stay with family for a few days).

I have done that too Jooky just recently in Ufa, although it wasn't planned ;) the family who lived ther were just moving out as I arrived :D it was cheap but pretty basic though, no where near as good as the luxury one I had in Moscow!

BCKev:
I stayed in a few hotels in the FSU, and didn't like them much. For the same money you could get a much more comfortable apartment.

The apartments I rented in Kiev ranged in price from $55 for a studio to $90 for a 3 room, all nice places. I had no concerns about security/safety.
