Erasmus to Brussels

Going on Erasmus to Brussels is a great experience. The city is international, lively, well connected, and welcomes many students from all over Europe every year. But before fully enjoying your stay, you need to find reliable, well-located accommodation at a reasonable price. And that’s not always so easy.

Why can it be difficult to find Erasmus accommodation in Brussels?

💶

Is the price reasonable for the Brussels market?

📄

Are the conditions clear and without surprises?

✅

Is the accommodation suitable for a stay of a few months?

🔒

Is the accommodation reliable and verified before booking?

🤝

Is there a trusted local contact in case of any issue?

Great experience! The room matched the photos, was clean and well furnished. The house is pleasant, well located, and the shared spaces are always clean. The co-living atmosphere is friendly while still respecting everyone’s privacy.
