Dear Hui Hui!
We have reserved your housing application and your deposit and we are looking forward to welcoming you in Graz in the summer semester. According to your demand we have reserved a room in the following student dormitory for you:
period of rent: 15.02.2009-30.06.2009
address in Graz:
Studentenheim GREENBOX
Eggenberger Allee 31/1/11/47
A-8020 Graz
It is a single room, fully furnished, no. 47 Top 11, 1st floor. Greenbox is built in form of apartments – 4-6 students per apartment, one common kitchen, 2 bathrooms. You have to share the bathroom and the kitchen with other students. The room is fully equipped, but you have to bring pillows and blankets, sheets, and some dishes and plates for your personal use. The student dormitory is well equipped; there are common rooms, internet connection in the rooms, washing machines, sauna etc.
just received this in the email! with the exams done (results are coming back and not looking up to my expectations; so much for trying not to hope too much), it's time to be looking forward to exchange next year! i didn't expect the dormitory to be apartment style (i confess that i haven't actually done much research and simply went with the crowd) i don't really like the idea of having people live under the same roof as me; it makes me feel that i don't have much personal space to myself. but on a positive note, there're 2 bathrooms in the apartment! i have this thing against sharing toilets (it's a girls' thing i think) two toilets shared among 4-6 people definitely sounds better than an entire level sharing one. i hope i get nice and fun housemates!
