Housing
Type of housing: boarding house
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
Because the boarding house was expensive and there was not a lot of space, no possibility to cook and I couldn't invite my friends. An own house costs a lot less and you have much more freedom.
