Advantages and disadvantages of sharing a flat in Budapest

Living in a shared flat comes with its own set of advantages and disadvantages. Here’s what you need to know:

Advantages of sharing a flat in Budapest

  • Save on rent and utility bills, leaving you more money for activities and travel. Budapest offers cheap flights and trains to other cities and countries.
  • Meet roommates from all over the world since Budapest attracts students from diverse countries, which provides a great opportunity to learn about different cultures.
  • Spare rooms can often be found in central and student-friendly districts like V, VI, and VII of Pest.

Disadvantages of sharing a flat in Budapest

  • Winters can be very cold with limited daylight. Heating arrangements can vary, it may be determined by the landlord but if that’s not the case, it's important to discuss usage with your roommates to avoid misunderstandings when the electricity bill arrives.
  • Some rooms might be shared by up to four students, which means common areas can get crowded. Keep this in mind when choosing your accommodation.

Erasmus Apps for your exchange programme in Budapest

Remember to pack warm clothes for the winter, but don't forget swimwear and flip flops for Budapest's famous hot springs.
