Let’s find a room in Milano
Finding
a good room is as important as finding good friends because that decides whether
we can have enlightened life or not. Since I did not speak Italian at all so I
needed too courage to visit local house agencies. I was using some websites to
find a room instead.
If you
are a student of Politecnico di Milano, the best option is student residences
run by Polimi because they are cheaper and closer to the university.
Unfortunately,
everyone knows that fact so there are few chances. Even less for freshmen because
students who are studying already can apply first. Polimi has contracts with
agencies here so polimi students can use their services with discounted prices.
I show here.
We can communicate with them in English so
no problems.
If the prices for sharing bedrooms are around
250 to 300 euro, they are cheap ones. If they are also close to your university,
it is very lucky but we should be careful because there are always reasons why
it is so cheap. Please check my sad and exciting experiences here.

If the prices of sharing bedrooms are more
than 350 euros, that seems good but we do not know it like we cannot expect everything
in our lives.
The prices of single rooms start around 450
euros. In this cases, kitchen and bath rooms are shared. If you want to use
everything privately, you get to pay more and more.
As other costs, we pay electricity, water,
gas and wifi usually. For sharing bed rooms, in summer it is around 20 euros
and in winter it is around 50 to 80 euros.
For a single room, that costs are around
100 euros as a total. This depends on how many people you share and how old the
house is so I cannot say exact numbers.
If we live in Milano for a curtain moment
and get used to speak Italian, we can try local agencies.
For example, this site
seems to have cheaper rooms. Sometimes it
is connected to local agencies or individuals.
Postoletto means a bed, Prezzo is price and
affito is rent.
The other site is
I did not find so many good ones but we can
try. Seeing is believing.
If you are a Japanese, there is a site for
sharing information.
We can check there too. This is not only
for rooms but also for finding friends and asking questions so if you want a Japanese
friend, it can be a choise.
To be
honest, it is very hard to find a good place in a good price especially, in the
city center. If we go to the suburb, there are more chances to find better and
cheaper ones but if we consider the increase of commuting cost, that may not
make so much differences.
