Personal comments
the accomadation was great. I would choose the same. There was just a problem: the kitchen.I had to share it wiht other 12 people that lived in my same corridor and sometimes the kitchen are empty and you have to buy everything. I was lucky 'cause in my kitchen there was all the staff that I needed.
