I was housed through 'Houses for you' managing director Javier Ornia. they are the dirtiest most unproffesional, disgusting company I have ever delt with and are threatening and intimidatory. The company is run by idiots and the service they offer is worse than anyone can imagine.

Accomodation was much cheaper in Alicante than in Limerick. I had no travel expenses in Limerick whereas i had to take the bus to uni in Alicante. Telephone was more expensive because i was phoning home. Nightlife was cheaper because alcohol is cheaper in Spain, so overall i think it was cheaper to live there.

Alicante is a very cheap city to live and study in. If you are an economist like me you will find the cheapest deals on everything which is generally easy to do.
