If you want party all the time, go to the dorms. If you want to live quietly ever after, choose one of the smaller houses. If you want the third way in between, go to Goirkestraat 152-158.

Well everything is in the same place so you would probably get to try all bars ;) Kandinsky is a favourite for a pint of Belgian beer.
