In this German city, you will find both studio flats and apartments to share between several students. Make sure you take a good look at the characteristics of each one of them because, for example, shared flats can have only two rooms, but can accommodate four people, that is, the rooms are shared (with two single beds or bunk beds).

Student room for rent in Kaiserslautern

Renting a room in a shared flat is often the preferred alternative for international students moving to Kaiserslautern for their Erasmus experience, for two main reasons. First, because it allows you to save on the cost of rent compared to that of a complete apartment since the price is divided between all who live there. You will also be able to distribute the cost of utility bills such as water, electricity, gas, internet, etc. Secondly, sharing a flat with other students is usually more fun than living alone, since you will be able to live day to day with other classmates who are in the same situation as you.

We recommend that you try to find a private room for rent in Kaiserslautern or a flat with several rooms and then find other students to share the accommodation with.
