Personal comments
The housing was good. There is one unit, which consists of two rooms, bathroom and toilette. That means, in this unit live two students, each having his own room. Sometimes it was a bit cold in there, but in general I felt comfortable. The only thing I hated was the presence of cockroaches!!
