You can have a very good appartment when you are willing to pay more money. But when you are not willing to pay more, you can be send to a studentflat with a small room and it is far from university. This flat is in Junkersdorf and it is far away. So you have to check out where your housing is located.

Location was superb. 5 mins from the lecture theatre, tram stop in front of the building. Lidl, Aldi, Real etc within 3 mins of the building. Small kiosk shop is in the building itself open from 7am to 11pm even open sundays and holidays (very rare in Germany!!). Great view from my room in the 'Uni Center' could see all the way to Bonn!

My accomodation was top - however, I was in a special situation since I was able to live above my father's surgery fo free. So even though Royal Holloway is my home university, Cologne is my home town.

The university did everything to find a place for us taking our preferences into account. I was really satisfied with how they organised it.
