Cost is definitely an issue, but if you schedule properly and wait for a good offer on AirBNB then you can find good deals. I've been staying in Copenhagen in 1 bedroom apartments with kitchens for about $40-$70. The key is to find someone who is going away on holiday or better a longer study abroad thing, then get a discount on several weeks. Another way to save money is to not take taxis which are very expensive, but you can rent a bike which all the locals use anyway or walk, since all scandi capitals are rather small.
