There is a colour tv in all the apartment and a dvd player. also with internet facilities
- The apartment cost Eur 450 per month including all bills such as water, electricity, gas e..t.c plus Eur 600 for security deposit which is refundable while packing without any lost or damage of my properties.

Location is ok for me. I want to rent a place for a year I think. I must say I have never lived on my own but I think I can take good care of the apartment. Please send me some photos. And if I understand good it is for one person only? No other roommates?
Best regards,
Jan
And the answer I got is:
Here is the picture of the apartment , so if you are ok with the apartment and you will like to proceed then we will have to sign a contract to legalize the rent after which you will proceed with the payment of the deposit and this will serve as an assurance that you really have interest in my apartment and the apartment will be reserve for you, also after the payment have been confirm here then a receipt will be issue back in return to guaranty the payment with the key of the apartment will be send to you and this are the things you will come down with on your movein date to the apartment and you make the payment of the first month rent on your movein date..
Waiting for your answer
