Personal comments
the rooms must be shared by 2 persons each one and there's one building especially available for exchange program students. The cleaning service runs once a month and there are cleaning tools available in the reception. There's a laundry service with 2 machines for all the building. The environment and the social life in the dorm is the best part.
