HOUSING
Personal assessment
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why? Easier to meet new people. Very cheap accomodation.
Personal comments:
The student dormitories are the cheapest possibility to live in Prague. It is nothing special, but one gets everything what is necessary for living. Internet, kitchen, bathroom is included in the small appartments, which are shared by 4 persons. The houses look like typical architecture from the comunism period, but for the price charged it is more than ok. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
