You can expect to pay between € 250 and € 700 per month depending on the type of accommodation you choose (i.e. shared flat, single room, double room, studio, etc.) and on the area of town.

Public transport from the centre to the Campus area can take approximately 30 minutes. However, busses and the tube run less frequently at night.
