Accommodations
Participants in the program will be accommodated in apartments or houses located in the charming town of Amelia. All apartments provide basic and comfortable living arrangements in the historic center of Amelia. The shared rooms are reasonably priced at €500 per student.
The majority of our accommodations is situated in medieval buildings with thick walls, which naturally help keep the living quarters cool during hot days. However, they can feel colder on wet days as most of them do not have air conditioning. Rest assured, we are committed to providing basic, comfortable living conditions in the historic center of Amelia. Our team is diligently working to secure suitable accommodations for all participants. We understand the importance of a pleasant living environment and will make every effort to ensure your comfort during your stay.
Here is a breakdown of what is included in the shared housing:
- Shared bedrooms, typically with two to three beds.
- Shared bathrooms.
- Kitchens equipped with basic cooking utensils.
- Laundry facilities, including a washing machine and space to hang-dry clothes.
- Weekly linen change, providing fresh bed sheets and one bath towel.
We are committed to providing inclusive housing options. Participants have the choice to reside in housing designated specifically for women only, men only, or all genders. This allows individuals to live with other participants, irrespective of their sex assigned at birth, gender, gender identity, or gender expression.
For those seeking more privacy, single room accommodation is available as well. These private rooms are within a shared apartment, where participants share the bathroom and kitchen facilities. Please note that this option requires an additional fee of €300 per program, bringing the total accommodation cost to €800. However, availability may affect the final cost.
We strive to ensure that all participants have a comfortable and enriching experience during their stay in Amelia. Should you have any further questions or specific housing preferences, please feel free to reach out to us.
