Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
Easy to find and very cheap comapred to the UK - 200e for a large double room (single rooms can be a lot cheaper). Best to share with spanish students, or students who don't speak your language.
