Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
The apartment owner had an agreement withe school to take ERASMUS students. So the house I lived in had a mix of students from countries such as China, France, Italy, Spain, Poland etc. This meant I got a great introduction to these peoples cultures without actually going to the countries, greatly broadening my horizons.

Personal comments
The university only has an agreement with a landlord to let rooms. The accomodation is not the greatest but, is cheap and ideally located for school and extra-curricular activities.

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
To live in a flat has a lot of advantages; but living in a residence with other students has maybe more if the residence is good enough.
