all the equipments in the apartment are completely enough for students and the service is good. but the cost of per person in a shared room doesnot seem to be so reasonable.

Personal comments
Teachers who cannot speak english well shouldn't teach foreign students; some teachers shouldn't teach at university at all cause of lack of knowledge and competence (unfortunatelly experienced one example at web-animation course)

The best were the parties in the dormitory but 45 special and hot night are good dancing places and "never grown old " a nice place with latin music. Also cafe milou is funny. Cimemas are very expensive but Nuku has good movies.

Personal comments
finnish language is very hard but the ILPC course helped a lot before my course started. Most people speak some segree of english so you won't be stuck if you can speak a bit of english. even if you think it's not too good.

Personal comments
The room was not clean if we entered, the dormitory manager was not realistic and unfair (we were not able to live after 11 o'clock, even talking in our rome was not possible). Otherwise it's very good to live in such a space

Personal spending habits
Especially food and alcohol is more expensive than in my home country and I think when you are a student most of the money goes in food and alcohol. I also travelled a lot what I usually don't do so often than I did here.
