Cleanliness
Space
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? Because the rooms were really not clean enough.
Personal comments:
It is quite cheap but unfortunately not so clean. The kitchens are shared by 12 persons and sometimes it makes problems. But the bars of the dormitiories are quite fun.
