Hi,

Incoming EUR student here. Tomorrow is the day for SSH housing booking and I’m lowkey stressed.

Done my google research but need the real tea. I'm trying to decide between EIH, Molenwerf, and Hatta.

• Which one has the best facilities and actual quiet time?
• What’s the hidden annoying thing about them you only realize after living there? (bad wifi, thin walls, roommate drama?)
• Are there certain rooms/floors/views that you regret booking?
• Any golden tips to actually survive the SSH website tomorrow without it crashing? Does refreshing the page at 11:59:59 AM actually work?

Appreciate any unfiltered reviews, especially from EUR students or former SSH tenants. Thanks a lot!!!

I’m planning to register for a room at SSH as a first-year student at EUR, but the guest policy is giving me second thoughts.

The website says "no overnight guests," but I’m just planning to have 1-2 friends crash for 2-3 nights every once in a while. We’re definitely not the party type, we’ll keep it chill, be nice to the roommates, and won't make much noise.

For those of you living there right now: do they actually enforce this? Like, is there some kind of security patrolling or is it just a "don't get caught" kind of thing?

I’d love to hear your recent experiences. Thanks a lot!

Hi everyone, I’m starting IBCoM at Erasmus Rotterdam this year and looking for housing rn

I’m thinking of a studio or 1-bedroom small apartment instead of student housing as my parents or friends from Europe might visit sometimes, so dorm/shared housing doesn’t seem that convenient tbh

Any tips for finding a place in Rotterdam?

• best websites/apps to use?
• how early should I start searching?
• how much is realistic for a studio?
• any areas in Rotterdam that is not safe enough for international students to live in?
• any red flags I should know?

Would appreciate any real advice from people who’ve been through it 🙏
