Personal comments
Unfortunately, the price living is expensive there compared to what I am used to pay. I was expecting a flat more clean and new for this price. However, I do not pay to much attention to my accomodation since I did not spend a lot of time inside.

Personal comments
The housing was quite terrible. It used to be government housing for the poor and a company bought them and marketed them as "student housing". It was extremely dirty, old, and small. Had many plumbing problems as well and maintenance took weeks to fix. It was also far from the city center of Amsterdam. But, at least it had a heater and internet!
