Personal comments
Host university arranges for the accomodation. My apartment was quite good, but others did not get such a nice apartment. It is definitely a matter of luck which apartment you get.

Academic
Course recommendations
Examens at the end are very difficult and differ very much from the content of the courses. There is a lot of group work with which you can improve your grades.
