Personal comments
It is quite cheap but unfortunately not so clean. The kitchens are shared by 12 persons and sometimes it makes problems. But the bars of the dormitiories are quite fun.

Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
Enjoy Marburg!! It is a very small city, so that you always see somebody you know on the street :) The University has 20000 students and there is always something to do.. The food is really cheap in Marburg so do not forget to eat Doner in Bereket und Auflauf in Paprika! They are delicious.

The Germans wants to speak in german with you and if you are fluent they will like it very much. For non speakers, most of Germans can speak English. But you have to learn German to adapt the local environment.
