Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
It was an appartment in an International Student House, which got me to meet many new people. Also, the location was perfect, next to the station and only 5 mins away from the university and the town centre.

The two grants I get from the state and from Erasmus were enough to pay the housing fees for the all year. The student parties are quite cheap.
