A positive experience
I have been living in Provstehuset for more than one year now.
Here few points about my experience in this place so far:
PROS:
- The place I was given was clean, and fully renovated. The estimated cost of renovation after moving out is high but clearly stated in your contract. In exchange, when you move in, you should expect to find your room as new.
- I really like that the building is well insulated. Last year, I barely needed to switch on the heating in winter, as my apartment was always warm.
- Here I pay less compared to what I used to pay for my previous one-room apartment. Also, every year, they ricalculate your water-heat consumption and so far I have only got money back, possibly because I almost do not need to use the heating.
- I think that the rooms are well insulated against the noise. Sometimes people have parties in the basement and, unless they turn on the music at "disco" volume, I do not hear any sound. I also do not hear any sound from the street (I am in the ST floor). However, few times per year, somebody will throw a noisy party and in that case if your room is above the basement the basses will litterally make your floor tremble.
- The gym and laundry are nice and well equipped
CONS:
- The ventilation system is not great. If there are people smoking on the roof or cooking something smelly, then the smell will enter in your room, unless you are fast enough to close the ventilation system on time.
- The maintenance of the common kitchen and its equippment needs to be improved.
So, in summary, I have had a positive experience here. If you want a cozy new room for yourself, Provstehuset is a good choice.
