town is not very crowded. no nightlife. costs are not exceeding noraml limits (I am used to austrian standard) town itself is not intersting, try to travel around a bit, its really worth. we were able to choose all the courses we wanted to do (big plus!) take advantage of studying abroad, in a different culture, with different people.
