Albert-Ludwigs-Universtät Freiburg

I lived in student housing and shared a two bathrooms and one shower with three other students. I shared a kitchen with seven other students, four which were German and three which were also exchange students. The cleanliness of the housing depends, of course, on who you are living with. Our kitchen was disguisting, but that was because no one would take care of it. The laundry facilities were ok, but it was annoying because you had to use laundry tokens, which could only be purchased between 4 and 5. But as long as you have good roommates you can have a great experience!

In general, the accomodation is very good, especially on the Studentensiedlung am Seepark, where most students live. However, there are a few things, such as the lack of good cooking facilities in Europa Haus (the hall resserved for foreign students, which could be improved. Overall, very good.

Excellent if you get a room in the StuSie area by the beautiful lake and only a short tram ride away from the university and town centre. I was in Europa House, which though you get an ensuite shower and small kitchenette to yourself, has the disadvantage of housing loads of international students so everyone speaks english.

If you are at the "Studentensiedlung am Seepark" I would recommend staying in one of the larger flats with 8-12 people per floor. Freiburg have accommodation specifically for international students at "Europa Haus", you may get your own bathroom and kitchen area, however there is no opportunity for meeting native German speakers there.

Housing was cheap and you could choose with how many people you wanted to live with. I lived at a student residence made by different student apartments.

I was lucky in the way that i got a room right away, but sometimes it takes more time to find something
