Personal comments
The accomodation, where I lived was superb. Most of the int. students lived there, so the atmosphere was great. Everybody had its own room (3 or 4 people lived together), there was a big kitchen and 1 or 2 bathrooms. It was well equiped and clean. And finally, it was in Sweden so it was important that it situated in the less expensive part of the city.
