I've been to Ukraine 2 times. Once in Kiev and once in Lviv. I had no problem at all. Just use common sense as you would do anywhere. Kiev is one the most beautiful cities I've ever been to, and I've been to quite a few cities. Of course if you get really drunk and act like a monkey with a lot of money, then it can cause problems... just like the rest of the world. Anyway, I recommend Kiev. I'd like to go back there. I was also in Lviv. I talked to a girl there who had lived in Sweden for 1,5 year, and she said she felt more safe in Lviv than in swedish cities. There are little violent crime in Ukraine, mostly pickpocketing and fraud. Make a photocopy of your passport to carry with you, and just have a small amount of cash. Leave cards at the hotell. I never felt unsafe, and I was out in the evening and night as well. I hired an apartment. That was great, no problems at all. They also picked me and my friend up in the airport. http://www.kievapartment.com/
Try to get a place to stay near Kreschatik street. That's the mainstreet in Kiev.
By the way.. they drive like crazy in this city.
