“It is cheaper travelling with the train if you buy a Bahncard and make reservations 4 days earlier. Cheapest way travelling is also with the Mitfahrgelegenheid(to ride with somebody). Cheap and good food you can get at Menza (cafetaria)” Read Review

Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? Having a small apartment for yourselfe, is much better. Then I dont have to share it with other room mates.
Personal comments:
It was good, because a had an appertment for my self. It was pretty small, but the entire appartment was just for myself.
