HOUSING    
Personal assessment
Cost
KEY:
Couldn't have asked for more.
Pretty good.
Could've been better, but didn't lessen the overall experience.
Disappointing.
Facilities
Location
Cleanliness
Space
Type of housing: A room exchange
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? because I need some space and I do not think that sharing room with a stranger is a good idea for a longer period of time.
Personal comments:
There is no campus on the Vienna university, therefore the student housing is situated all over vienna. That is pitty, since it is more fun to live close to other students. However, the actual housing is good, there are many places to choose between, many of wihch are located near the center of Vienna.

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

My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang)
Personal comments:
I already spoke almost fluent german, therefore I did not expect to learn so much, however I did learn, as the dialects are so different from the german I know. ( Hochdeutsch)
