Apartment types
PSOAS offers modern and comfortable student apartments. You can search for a home of just the right price and size for your needs from our apartment selection.
Shared apartment
A room in a shared apartment or Solu as we call it, is the gem of student housing! Solu offers privacy and peace in its own lockable room. Kitchen and bathroom are mostly shared by roommates. In addition we have some shared apartments with private en suite. Solu is always a cost-effective option and is also suitable as a shared apartment for a group of friends.
Studio apartment
For those who value their own peace, a small apartment for one student is an excellent choice. When looking for a studio apartment, especially during the high season, you should be prepared for a longer waiting time than other forms of housing.
Family apartment
Family apartments have mostly 2–3 rooms and a kitchen. Couples, families with children and single applicants can apply for family apartments. Family apartments are also well suited as shared apartments for friends.
