The final decision on the price of the accommodation rests with the property. However, Booking For Students can provide a price range based on the experience we have in the housing sector.

Here are some tips.

  1. Do not send blurry photos and always horizontal.
  2. Make sure the space is clean and tidy so that you can easily convey a “brand new” feeling (toilet paper not started, cutlery tidy and stored, bottles completely empty or completely full, toilet bowl descent, etc.).
  3. Beds must be made with bedding.
  4. Brightness is key for a property to be attractive. Make sure, when taking photos, that the apartment and its rooms are properly lit. You can do this by turning on the lights, opening the curtains, etc. Take photos during the day and try not to use flash.
  5. Think about the angles. To get a better view, stand in a corner of the room while taking photos.
  6. Take photos of the outside. It is a very good idea to take photos of the surroundings of the building.
  7. If the room has a private bathroom, try to reflect it in the image (take photos that show both a part of the bathroom and the room, for example).
  8. Be very careful with mirrors as, in many cases, their reflection can affect the quality of the photo. Make sure your silhouette is not reflected through the mirrors.
  9. The decoration of the space is important. Try to decorate the apartment in a simple and minimalist way.
  10. Remove personal items (photos, souvenirs, symbols, etc.) Decorative tastes are not always shared.
