I<\/span>f you can handle the bike ride to and from your study programme, you can quickly get a room for less than DKK 3,000 per month with your own toilet and bathroom at the Hvidovre Hospital residence hall.<\/p>\n

\u00bbIt’s a bit far away. But where there’s a will, there’s a way!\u00ab says occupant Rasmus Lund Nielsen, who got his room one week after he had applied. And if there is no desire to do this, the bus 11 runs directly to the central station in 20 minutes.<\/p>\n

Everyone is welcome<\/h3>\n

The only requirement that the residence hall makes of its residents is that they are enrolled on a certified Danish educational programme.<\/p>\n

\u00bbAnd that they pay kitchen dues and do their cleaning!\u00ab adds Katrine Boe Eriksen, who is one of a total of five members on the residents’ council.<\/p>\n

You do not need to be a university student or an extrovert to live at the Hvidovre Hospital dorm. When there is a party \u2013 and there is often \u2013 you decide for yourself whether you want to take part or not.<\/p>\n

\u00bbThere is a big difference between people. On our corridor, we have four or five people who are very social, and four or five people who come in, cook their meals, say hello, and that’s it,\u00ab says Rasmus Lund Nielsen.<\/p>\n

\u00bbEveryone is welcome, but not everyone makes an effort. But that is just how it is.<\/p>\n

Absurd number of parties<\/h3>\n

With almost 300 residents in one residence hall which also has its own caf\u00e9 and bar, it can sometimes get a bit wild.<\/p>\n

\u00bbThere are an absurd number of parties. In fact, there have been so many that it has been a real problem during the corona epidemic,\u00ab says Katrine Boe Eriksen. Problems are taken up by the residents’ council, which recently agreed on common rules to curb the dorm’s festive proclivities.<\/p>\n

\n

Dorms disclosed<\/p>\n

There are loads of dormitories, kollegiums, and student residences in Copenhagen, yet most of the information available is in Danish.<\/p>\n

Some are small, old houses with pretty gardens, others are giant concrete buildings with tiny windows.<\/p>\n

This is a review by a student reporter. But in the Dorms Disclosed series, it is the residents themselves that review the dorms that they live in.<\/p>\n

Here is an overview with links to all of the dormitory and student accommodation reviews<\/a> we have published so far, written by the people who know them the best.<\/p>\n

If you want to write an English-language review of your dorm write to uni-avis@adm.ku.dk with ‘Dorms Disclosed’ in the subject header.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

But only a bit, because the social life is one of the reasons why it is worth while to live in a dorm, according to Katrine Boe Eriksen. Apart from the residents’ council, you can join the caf\u00e9 association, the bar committee or the party committee. And if you have not in a good enough shape from biking back and forth to the dorm, you also have access to both a basketball and soccer pitch.<\/p>\n

\u00bbThey really do a lot for the social part of things out here,\u00ab says Katrine Boe Eriksen.<\/p>\n

\u00bbWe have just, for example, set up all the volunteers at the residence hall with a day on a party bus, all paid. Booze and food ad libitum. We really do a lot to make it cool and fun to be here.\u00ab<\/p>\n

And if there are too many complaints about the noise, it is fortunate that the party can be moved to the basement, which is soundproofed, according to Rasmus Lund Nielsen:<\/p>\n

\u00bbWhen we’re down here, we can turn the music up to the max.\u00ab<\/p>\n

Here the students can buy beer, sodas, and coffee, among other things, play pool or beer pong, or relax with some board games.\r\n\r\nOn weekends when the Caf\u00e9 closes at 12 PM, the Bar opens. In the bar you can get every kind of assorted drinks you can think of and then go to show your moves on the dance floor. Both the Caf\u00e9 and the Bar are driven by the residents and depends on everybody's effort to be part of the community.\r\n\r\nThere are also several grand parties every year hosted by the committees of the Resident Council (Beboerr\u00e5det) and the Party Committee (Festudvalget). Among these are the Octoberfest, Halloween, and the great summer party where all of the residents meet in one of the gardens, have a barbecue, and celebrate that the summer has arrived.

'South House' is a new student housing building in Valby near the Copenhagen Zoo. It opened its doors to the first tenants in October 2015. Unlike a dorm or collective variety of student housing, South House offers private apartments. As a result of this (and likely the city's current student housing crisis) apartments at South House are more expensive than many other student housing options. However, if you treasure your privacy and want a \u201creal apartment\u201d of your own, South House may be for you.\r\n\r\nSouth House is technically located in Valby, but it actually sits on the border of Frederiksberg and Valby, near the Copenhagen Zoo. It is also within close striking distance to Vesterbro by bicycle. S\u00f8ndermarken, and Valby station are also just a short walk away. South House is situated on one of the main roads going through Valby and Frederiksberg, S\u00f8ndre Fasanvej (known as Nordre Fasanvej in Frederiksberg). University of Copenhagen campuses CSS, Panum, and Universetets Parken can all be reached in less than 30 minutes by bicycle (all are under 5 km away) under normal weather and traffic conditions.\r\n\r\n<strong>SEE THE FULL 'DORMS DISCLOSED' UNIVERSITY POST SERIES: <a href=\"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/student-housing-reviews-dorms-and-residences-in-copenhagen\/\">Reviews by student residents of dorms and residence halls in Copenhagen<\/a><\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe top 3 floors of South House are comprised of individual student apartments, most of which are simple studios with a private bathroom and kitchen and no balcony. Everything was just installed last October and residents enjoy brand new hardwood floors, and Siemens kitchen appliances. Some select units include unique large terraces, perfect for setting up a garden or a large outdoor patio area. In addition to that a handful of units also offer private balconies. One community room is located on each floor which also includes a full size oven (apartments have kitchenettes only).\r\n<div class=\"dme-external-teaser dme-external-teaser-3\">\r\n<div class=\"image\">\r\n<div class=\"dme-image dme-image-center dme-image-preset-0\"><a title=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/universitetsavisen.dk\/node\/24420\"><img title=\"\" src=\"\/old_files\/frankrigsgade2_0.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>On the 1st floor of the building are doctors' offices, and the ground floor consists of a \u201cLidl\u201d supermarket, perfect for the lazy student who can take a quick elevator ride down to the market when a case of the munchies sets in. The basement includes secure storage units for each apartment, bicycle parking, and laundry facilities. The building is wired with both cable and fiber internet. Students are also in the process of creating a group internet coop at the time of writing.<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<h2>Special considerations<\/h2>\r\nAlthough the prices at South House are higher than most student housing (DKK 6600\u2013 9719) most students should qualify for \u201cBoligst\u00f8tte\u201d (housing support). In the case of this reviewer, I receive about DKK 1000 per month off my listed rent via 'Boligst\u00f8tte' . This is due to the fact that it is not shared accommodation and each unit has its own private kitchen and bathroom. Boligst\u00f8tte makes the monthly rent a lot more affordable, especially if you are cohabiting with a partner.\r\n\r\nAnother special consideration is at the time this review was written, South House is still a very new housing project undergoing major construction and remodeling. Although tenants are allowed to live here during this time, construction noise and construction workers are still active from approximately 7 am-7 pm. In addition to this some tenants have reported maintenance issues such as water being shut off, leaking, heating problems, ventilation issues, internet problems, and various other issues.\r\n\r\nThese faults are being dealt with individually during the construction process and will hopefully be resolved for future tenants. Furthermore, garbage collection, laundry facilities, storage units, internet, and bicycle parking, have only just became available this week. Thus, these services should be reviewed again at a later date to give a more thorough reflection of that portion of the review.\r\n<h2>Final thoughts<\/h2>\r\nAt the time of writing, I recommend South House as a good student housing facility which still has room for improvement.\r\n<div class=\"factbox\">\r\n<p class=\"factbox-header feature-color\">Dorms disclosed<\/p>\r\nThere are loads of dormitories, kollegiums, and student residences in Copenhagen, yet most of the information available is in Danish.\r\n\r\nSome are small, old houses with pretty gardens, others are giant concrete buildings with tiny windows.\r\n\r\nIn the Dorms Disclosed series, it is the residents themselves that review the dorms that they live in.\r\n\r\nHere is <a href=\"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/student-housing-reviews-dorms-and-residences-in-copenhagen\/\">an overview with links to all of the dormitory and student accommodation reviews<\/a> we have published so far, written by the people who know them the best.\r\n\r\nIf you want to write an English-language review of your dorm write to uni-avis@adm.ku.dk with 'Dorms Disclosed' in the subject header.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\nOne of the obvious benefits of South House is that it is not a shared dorm. Its nice having your own private apartment, but still having the student atmosphere as a subtle backdrop without the overwhelming obnoxious overtones of a dorm or shared housing coop . Its also nice qualifying for 'Boligst\u00f8tte' (housing support) as a result of this amenity. The building has nice features, grocery shopping is easy since you live above a store, and the location is very good for Valby.\r\n\r\nThe biggest drawback for South House is of course the monthly rent, which for student housing is on the higher end of price spectrum.\r\n\r\nThe constant daily construction work on the building is also a drawback, but this should (hopefully) not be a problem for future tenants. Other drawbacks include maintenance issues which also hopefully will not be a problem for future tenants.\r\n\r\nDespite the benefit of extra privacy that South House provides, there is also a con to this by stripping away a certain lack of community. Regardless of these drawbacks, the city of Copenhagen has a serious student housing crisis. And South House contributes to alleviating a small piece of this for those who can afford it. I am happy to live here despite some of the drawbacks. Overall - I would recommend it.\n<!-- end of module 1 -->\n","post_title":"Review: South House","post_excerpt":"Apartments at South House are more expensive than average, however if you treasure your privacy and want a 'real apartment' of your own, the brand new facilities it offers may be for you\r\n","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"dorms-disclosed-south-house","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2021-10-26 10:19:07","post_modified_gmt":"2021-10-26 08:19:07","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/?p=4245\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}},{"reference":{"ID":12263,"post_author":"12","post_date":"2013-06-12 10:59:13","post_date_gmt":"2013-06-12 08:59:13","post_content":"On the border of Vesterbro and Valby overlooking Copenhagen is a ten story tall zigzag-shaped building called Otto M\u00f8nsteds Kollegium. Known as the OMK by its residents, the building houses 300 students who are all struggling to balance their academic obligations with the temptations that life in the dormitory offers.\r\n<h2>Life on the ten floors<\/h2>\r\nLife at OMK is different whether you are so lucky as to live on the tenth floor, \"the penthouse\", or on the first floor. On the tenth floor, you sip your morning coffee with the view of Copenhagen\u2019s towers and green rusted roofs, and on New Year\u2019s Eve, the kitchen is invaded by envious residents from the lower floors who make the journey up the stairs to see the fireworks.\r\n\r\nOn the first floor, however, the view that goes with the morning coffee is quite different. On the weekends, you can enjoy the sight of hungover guests who struggle to remember where they parked their bicycles the previous night, which makes for a rather entertaining pastime Saturday morning.\r\n\r\n<strong>SEE THE FULL 'DORMS DISCLOSED' UNIVERSITY POST SERIES: <a href=\"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/student-housing-reviews-dorms-and-residences-in-copenhagen\/\">Reviews by student residents of dorms and residence halls in Copenhagen<\/a><\/strong>\r\n\r\n<h2>Cramped for space<\/h2>\r\nRegardless of what floor you live on, the student rooms are the same. There are two corridors on each floor, East and West, and in each corridor 15 people share a kitchen.\r\n\r\nWhen living at OMK you almost inevitably become an expert in simple living. Your bedroom is simultaneously your living room and your study, and you cannot own more furniture than can be crammed into 12 m2. Sounds tempting? Well, actually it is not half bad. Every room is 16 m2 including a tiny hall with a fitted closet and a bathroom. The room also has a small French window which makes the, admittedly, small rooms seem bright and rather spacious for 12 m2. The kitchens are not impressively big either, but just big enough to seat all 15 people who share the kitchen at once.\r\n\r\nBeing 15 people sharing a kitchen requires a certain level of organisation, and though space can be tight in at times, we make it work. There are dining clubs several days a week, where we take turns cooking for each other, and in the summer time, the barbecue in the garden behind the building is a popular alternative to the kitchens.\r\n<h2>A family feeling<\/h2>\r\nSharing a kitchen is more than just a matter of organisation. The kitchen is also the spot for late night kitchen parties when the disco ball is turned on, the floor is transformed to a dance floor, and the French window serves as the smokers\u2019 corner.\r\n\r\nOr it is the place where you hang out in the afternoon, when you do not want to sit in your room and study or in the evening for an hour of board games. In the morning, people try to wake up sharing the newspaper and listening to the radio, and when it is somebody\u2019s birthday, the two neighbors make a splendid breakfast for everyone.\r\n\r\nThe kitchen is more than just a kitchen, and the people you share it with are more than just your hall mates. Living together so closely fosters a feeling of community and you can end up feeling more like one big family than like roommates.\r\n<h2>Something for everyone<\/h2>\r\nWhat the dormitory lacks in square meters is made up for in other facilities. The most important common area is the bar, Ottos Tr\u00f8st (Otto\u2019s Comfort). The bar is open every Friday and a draught beer is DKK 20 \u2013 it is a perfect place to bring your friends or to head down after a dinner in the kitchen.\r\n\r\nThe bar has a stage which has often been the scene of OMK\u2019s very own band, Husorkesteret (the House Orchestra), which fills the dance floor with popular cover songs. Every spring, the bar hosts the Otto Festival, a festival that stretches over a weekend, where many different bands come to play and where residents from all the kitchens have the chance to tend the bar. The bar is also the scene for the big parties that are held every three months or so, and for showings of big sports events such as the Champion League\u2019s final.\r\n\r\n<div class=\"factbox\">\r\n<p class=\"factbox-header feature-color\">Dorms disclosed<\/p>\r\nThere are loads of dormitories, kollegiums, and student residences in Copenhagen, yet most of the information available is in Danish.\r\n\r\nSome are small, old houses with pretty gardens, others are giant concrete buildings with tiny windows.\r\n\r\nIn the Dorms Disclosed series, it is the residents themselves that review the dorms that they live in.\r\n\r\nHere is <a href=\"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/student-housing-reviews-dorms-and-residences-in-copenhagen\/\">an overview with links to all of the dormitory and student accommodation reviews<\/a> we have published so far, written by the people who know them the best.\r\n\r\nIf you want to write an English-language review of your dorm write to uni-avis@adm.ku.dk with 'Dorms Disclosed' in the subject header.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\nOther popular facilities are the reading room which is divided into a serious quiet zone and a homier, more relaxed living room which has recently been redecorated by three residents; a small gym in the basement; and the home cinema where you can go and watch a DVD on the big screen. We also have a living room with a piano, a sauna, guestrooms, rooms for group work, a laundry room and a bicycle workshop. And then there are of course the mandatory table football and table tennis.\r\n<h2>Adults or children?<\/h2>\r\nBeing a resident of OMK myself, I sometimes wonder if we are all just a bunch of kids pretending that we have grown up just enough to live away from home. We like to play games, cut loose and be silly. Twice a year every kitchen has what we call \"Gangcrawl\" which is a tour down the corridor with a stop in each room, where the resident has prepared a theme, a drink and a game. The idea is that nothing is too silly for a \"gangcrawl\", and this idea is truly explored.\r\n\r\nAnd at the big parties, tradition is that the party starts with a battle in some silly game between East and West on each floor. The latest example form the Western-themed spring party was a joust in piggyback riding and beer lassoing.\r\n\r\nThe loose and silly atmosphere is not limited to party-time only. You will often find people playing cubb or croquet in the garden, being absorbed in an intense game of table football or shouting silly things at each other out the kitchen windows. All in all, I think we just like to have fun. And those who are into having fun and exercising at the same time can join the football teams or the badminton club.\r\n<h2>The Outside World<\/h2>\r\nWhen your neighbors guitar playing becomes too loud, or the confinement of the kitchen too claustrophobic, it might be time to take a step outside the bubble of the dormitory life. At OMK, we are lucky to have Vesterbro right around the corner. A stroll down S\u00f8nderboulevard, and you are guaranteed to return home in good spirits, and if you crave some nature, S\u00f8ndermarken is a ten minute walk away.\r\n\r\nAt OMK we like to invite the outside world into our little bubble as well. To get in, you have to be on the waiting list for about a year and students from all universities and faculties and from the professional bachelor degree programs are welcome. Therefore, the residents of OMK are a diverse crowd, though mainly Danish students. Maybe the next new resident will be you\u2026\r\n\r\n<em>[If you want to write an English-language review of your dorm write to uni-avis@adm.ku.dk and mark it 'Dorms Disclosed']<\/em>\r\n\r\n<strong>READ ABOUT OTHER RESIDENCE HALLS AND DORMS HERE: <em><a href=\"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/student-housing-reviews-dorms-and-residences-in-copenhagen\/\">Student housing reviews: Dorms and residences in Copenhagen<\/a><\/em><\/strong>\n<!-- end of module 1 -->\n","post_title":"Review: Otto M\u00f8nsteds Kollegiet","post_excerpt":"Are the residents children or grown-up's?
