KIT Gästehaus

Wife and I have lived here for ~1.5 months and have had a very bad experience. We have barely slept since we arrived, and are desperate to find an alternative place to stay. Seek other options before booking here.Pros:- Staff is very nice- Easy to book for foreignersCons:- very expensive compared to normal apartments and other temporary housing options- Far from KIT campus, it takes me over 30minutes to get to work on public transportation- Water shut off more than once for several hours, maintenance entering rooms multiple times, with less than 24 hours notice- WiFi is terrible, we lose service several times a day- Rooms are poorly designed and not well-equipped, beds are bad, bathroom is a mess- Very loud, can hear normal conversations from other units.- External blinds are old and do not work well, no internal blinds or curtains. Room is bright enough to read in well before sunrise and after sunset.- Very hot in the summer; our room is hotter than the outside temperature for most of the day. Poor room design doesn't allow crossflow and traps heat. Hot air is vented to upper floors from lower floors. There is no way to block this and it keeps fans from working effectively.

Nice and clean friendly staff. But there is a problem if you forget to reserve the parking it will be hard to park your car

Very confortable and affordable accomodation for KIT students and researchers. Close to the city center, very well connected with the campus nord.Mine was a very good stay!
