Big choice of accomodations, locations and prices, good organization. Rather dirty in general though, furniture missing, and impossible to make the responsibles react about that.

Personal comments
Much attention in the language of instruction, mainly English, would help improve the academic life to a greater extent. All the courses, if offered in English, would add to the strength of academic life.
