KEY:
Couldn't have asked for more.
Pretty good.
Could've been better, but didn't lessen the overall experience.
Disappointing.
Facilities
Location
Cleanliness
Space
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? Those living in doorms have many roles to comply with at all times.
Personal comments:
The accomodation was "good enough" but nothing exceptional.

Language of instruction: English
Was learning English a key decision factor?
No, it wasn't.
How much did you improve your English?
My level before: At ease in most situations
My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang)
Personal comments:
Since I previously had lived in the country I had quite a lot of help from that when it came to my ability to handle the language. Afterwards I could however see improvements in my academic vocabulary and of course in my overall proficiency.
