About the Groot Begijnhof Student Residence
While looking for the best central residence halls, I applied for Groot Begijnhof considering the location, rent and atmosphere. I recently got accepted there, but I can't find enough reviews of its residence or even pictures of it. I want to stay there but I want to have a more comprehensive view of the situation. I went through all the reddit threads, and its webpage and found out some things but some questions still remain unanswered. It would be great if someone who has lived there or knows about this stuff could answer:
How is the shared kitchen facility or is there any to begin with? Because there is no mention of it.
Same question as above about the shared laundry facilities.
It is mentioned that there is no Wifi but the CampusNet Ethernet is available. Can we use a WiFi Router for personal use?
I got accepted for a double room. It says there's 7 such rooms, of which 5 have toilets and one has a shower. So is the shower facility shared between the residents of these type of rooms?
I would mostly accept the offer but if I were to cancel or not respond, would the second preference of the central residence hall still consider my application or does it become null after i cancel this one? I would mostly not do this looking at the housing situation but just wanted to know.
Is there any site or place where I could see any photos of the residence? I found one little picture after searching far and wide and all the pictures on the internet are of the premises and not of the residences.
Even if any of you knows the answer to even one of those questions, please respond. It'd be nice to have some discourse available and accessible on this serene residence.
Thank you!
