HOUSING
Personal assessment
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Home university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why? It's pretty cheap compared to the rest of Prague
Personal comments:
I had little black tadpole like things in my bathroom all semester, pretty disgusting. The carpet looked like it had been peed on on several occasions. It was pretty disgusting. My school told me I'd get a towel, cooking utensils and someone to clean my bathroom once a week, I recieved none of these although some other students did. Overall, it wasn't too bad, you adapt pretty easily. It could've been worse. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

If you are not familiar/ have had no exposure to with Slavic Languages prepare for a some huge culture shock.
