Personal comments
In the suburb were I lived by the School (Cergy Pontoisse) my favourite place to chill was the O´Sullivans Irish Pub. However, choices around there were limited. As for Paris, alternatives are many, from the huge Locomotive discotheque to great restaurants in Nôtre Dame and quieter bars around Moulin Rouge.

Why?
For Paris and its suburban area, it is very cheap to live in an apartment. Furthermore, Cergy is a nice area and it is not very far to Paris city center.

Since their students are learning English to try to go abroad, they speak back to internationals in English even when we talked to them in French. Rather disappointing.

Personal comments
The price was too high for this small room, but it was super as we had our own bathroom, toilet, kitchen and sleeping place. Moreover, everything was clean. So no reasons to complain.

Student dormitories are sad: better apartments in residence or shared flat with other students.
