Default Somewhere to live in Benidorm

Hi Everyone
Im new to the site and also new to the whole forum thing so help me out here please!
Ive been in Spain for 2 months now and this week I finish a 4 week intense Spanish course in Alicante. (Trying my best to speak the language but its bloody hard).
Anyway I am looking to move to Benidorm to live and work in the next couple of weeks. Im going next week to ask around but wanted to ask if anyone knows of any flats or anyone wanting a flatmate there. Also if anyone knows of any work going.
I did try the employment office a couple of weeks ago, but I need to already live there to sign up with them.
Hope someone can help.

Hello there,welcome aboard the good ship BE,theres a couple of flats in the Costablancanews for rent today,(had a look before replying).
Personally I would go for Finestrat village or La Cala Finestrat,which essentialy are suburbs of Benidorm,with fart cheaper rents.

Not sure about work,but theres always work available in beindorm,should be pretty easy to get some sort of bar work,or sales type stuff.
Good luck

If one is going to post on an English speaking forum, it would be courteous if you used correct punctuation, and spelling.

This is a bit strong and judgemental when so many of the native English posters make the same mistakes.

I`m sorry? I didn`t realise we all went around in gangs. It`s you - from England - who keeps going on about `my country` meaning Spain. You said you were born in England and were brought up in England. Are you then not english with a spanish background? Or have you not been `integrating` all these years? I have an english mother and a spanish father - I have a mixture of both nationalities in my blood and I favour neither one nor the other, I love both.
I am not going against you - in fact I have agreed with some of your comments previously and I either pm`d you or sent you a karma - if I remember correctly. But sometimes I don`t and so I say so. Am I not allowed? It doesn`t mean I`m following anyone else... if I don`t agree with them then I say so also.

Or just too lazy to use the 'spell-check' and 'preview' buttons?
