Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
I found this place very good, it was near the campus about 5 mn by foot and 10 mn by bus from the center. The room was very nice, with internet and TV facilities. People who live there are both german people and exchange students.
