Step by step explanation about...

Signing contract

Step 1 Confirmation by email

After selecting your studio with the correct start date, you’ll receive a confirmation email. Within one week, we’ll prepare your contract, and you will receive another email inviting you to access your personal page on our service portal. After your first login, you will need to change your password.

Once your account is set up, you are all ready to go! In your service portal, you can:

  • Upload your proof of enrollment at an educational institution;
  • Watch the introductory video;
  • Find the floorplan of your studio; 
  • Read through the contract.

Step 2 Sign your contract digitally

After receiving your contract in the service portal, you have 5 days to check out these documents, watch the introductory video, or book a tour.

Digitally signing the contract can be done in the service portal. By accepting the studio, you agree to make the first payment. Keep this in mind when you sign the contract.

The first payment consists of:

  • The price for the remaining days of the month in which the agreement commences. Does the contract start at the end of the month? Then the payment for the next month is also included;
  • The administration costs of € 50;
  • The deposit of € 1500.

Step 3 Planning your check-in

All that's left to do is check in! After completing your first payment, you can schedule your own check-in appointment via the service portal. You're welcome 7 days a week from 1 PM to 9 PM. The duty manager or receptionist will welcome you at reception to hand over the key card to your studio. Please bring your identification documents (Passport/ID/driver's license) to the check-in.

Do you want to check in later than the contract's start date? No problem! You can schedule your check-in appointment for a date that works best for you. Please note that you are still responsible for the rent from the start date that’s mentioned in your contract.

Upon first entering your studio, check if everything is in order. If you have any questions or remarks, the duty manager will be happy to answer them.

Now, let the best time of your life begin!

Terminating contract

Step 1 Contract termination

Terminating your contract with a fixed end date earlier than the date upon in the contract is only possible if you have a compelling reason and valid proof of it. If your termination request is approved, you will be charged a € 990 early termination fee, along with the studio fee until the new end date.

You can find someone to take over your agreement under the same conditions to avoid the early termination fee. The takeover process will incur an administration fee of € 250.

For the complete cancellation policy, we refer to the contract and general terms and conditions.

Delivering studio

Step 1 Cleaning the studio

Before you leave, you'll need to leave the studio clean and tidy. If this is not the case and the studio needs to be cleaned professionally, you'll be charged a cleaning fee or part of your deposit will be withheld.

Cleaning
It's important to do a thorough cleaning. Not sure what to do or which products to use? In our checklist, we've made that easy for you. :)

Repairs
If something in your studio is broken, you will need to submit a repair request before you leave so the duty manager can fix it before your departure.

Step 2 Emptying the studio

Please take all your personal belongings with you and leave the studio in the same condition as it was delivered to you. Please make sure to leave the bed linen and towels in the studio when you leave.

Step 3 Check-out

The latest check out time is 11 AM on the end date of your contract. Of course, you can check out earlier than the last date, but this does not affect the monthly costs.

You have to hand in the keys of the studio at the reception, so that the duty manager knows that you have checked out.

Step 4 Deposit

You have paid a deposit for your studio. Before you get it back, we will settle any outstanding costs, such as payment arrears or costs for repairs in the studio.

If you pay your rent via direct debit, we will refund (the remainder of) the deposit one month after the end of the contract. We will also stop the direct debit.

If you don't pay your rent via direct debit, make sure to send us your bank details a month before you leave, so we can refund (the remainder of) the deposit one month after the end of the contract.

Payments can be made using a debit or a credit card. Costs for washing and drying are 3 euros. To make sure there is enough space for everyone to use the washing and drying machines, please note that:

    • You use one washing or drying machine at a time.
    •  You get your laundry out of the machines as soon as it's ready. Tip: set your alarm!

    By thinking of your neighbors, you will receive good karma points and probably make some friends too. ;)

    When you sign your contract, you have to pay the first invoice yourself. For future payments (after the first month), you can authorize us to automatically debit the rent from your account monthly. This way, you don't have to worry about payments, and you always pay on time.

    The amount is automatically debited from your specified bank account around the 26th of the month. You can also have someone else pay your rent (for example, your parents). It's important that there's enough money in the account at the time of debiting.

    Payment arrears can quickly add up, so it's important to find a solution quickly. In exceptional cases we can arrange a payment plan for this. This way you pay off your debt in installments.

    The most important rules are:

    • A payment plan can be arranged no more than once every 12 months. We calculate this from the end date of the last payment plan.
    • The backlog may not increase any further, the monthly rent must be paid on time just like the amount of the payment plan.
    • Do you not comply with the arrangements made in the payment plan? Then the arrangement will be terminated and the bailiff will be engaged.

Repairs, disturbances and complaints

    If there's something in your studio or a communal area that requires repair, please submit a repair request. You can schedule an appointment with the duty manager or authorize us to fix the issue even if you're not at home.

    Are your neighbors causing disturbance with loud music or household waste? This is how you get it sorted!

    1. Talk
    It's important first to discuss the issue with your neighbors. They may not even be aware of the disturbance they're causing. Stay calm and friendly and be understanding of each other's situation. If this doesn't help, you can proceed to step 2.

    2. Report a disturbance
    If a conversation did not help solve the situation, you can report the disturbance to us. We will look at a fitting solution.

  • Complaints

    Do you have a complaint? Report it so that you can live carefree again. We will pick up your complaint as soon as possible. 

    If it's an immediate complaint, for example about noise, you can file your complaint (anonymously) to the receptionist, duty manager or security guard. Unfortunately, we're not able to respond quickly enough to complaints via email (especially during the weekend) to resolve the situation immediately.
