HOUSING

KEY:
Couldn't have asked for more.
Pretty good.
Could've been better, but didn't lessen the overall experience.

Facilities
Location
Cleanliness
Space
Type of housing: Studenthouse
Arranged by: Home university
If returning, I would choose: in the same place
Why? even if it wasn't the cleanest and my room not the biggest, I felt home in that studenthouse
Personal comments:
Compared to my home-town university, which is very large,and where th relationships between the students and the professors are more formal, the Bayreuth Universitaet offered a more familiar atmosphere and more reliable services for the students. The professors worked very closely with the singol students on a one to one base.

Was learning German a key decision factor?
No, it wasn't.
How much did you improve your German?

Personal comments:
German is my second mothertongue; after my experience in Bayreuth I especially improved my german pronunciation, so that noboby would suspect that I spend most of my life in Italy
