Real Estate / Economical room by the month in Lublin? [24]

Hello, I'm looking for some help finding a room to rent under 500zl on a monthly basis, preferablely in Lubin but willing to try in any major city if my first choice cannot be fulfilled. I'm an older American gent that just needs a quiet and secure place close to the city center if possible. Lubin is my first choice as it appears to have a lower cost of living and quite a few students that might be interested in English tuition. I write "by the month" as I am not sure how long I will stay in Poland for any set period of time. Getting a little too old to endure another northern European winter. Thanks in advance for any tips. I have tried Gumtree.pl already but it seems what is offered gets snatched up fairly fast and communicating in English has presented a few difficulties.

Thanks for all the prompt replies. Yes it was Lublin I had my eye on. The link here suggests that cheapish places do exist.

There are a half a dozen places at 500 or less listed just in the last day or so. What I had in mind was, with the school holiday at prsent, to find some temporary situation what with the assumed surfiet of empty student rooms at the moment and take it from there.

As to my finding work, well I'll have to bow to local knowledge but having successfu!ly worked in many countries and always as a freelancer it is hard for me to believe there isn't something I could scrape together, not necessarily now but when school resumed. Anyway thanks again everyone.

And yes, after checking the climatic history of Poland, it is suprising for me to see C -3° is the lowest average temp. So there is that!

@ jon
Thanks for the heads-up about the revenuers. Germany, over the recent years has cracked down on freelancers so it doesn't suprise me the Poles are doing likewise. Do you know what the penalty entailed?
