HOUSING
Personal assessment
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? Through the university is the easiest way to find housing, so i would do the same
Personal comments:
there are clean and less clean appartments. you have to be a little lucky when you get assigned to a flat. most of the flats are close to the university. the price is a little bit on the high side for what you get This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
