The deposit is €250.00, and the accommodation is not eligible for housing allowance.

The house is a mixed student household of twelve residents who organize communal activities on a regular basis. Shared dinners take place frequently, although joining these meals is optional. A monthly house evening is organized with activities ranging from film nights to pub crawls. The group also maintains annual traditions, including a Sinterklaas celebration, a Christmas dinner, a house party, and a yearly house weekend. Informal activities such as sports sessions and games are also part of daily life in the household.

The property is situated on the University of Twente campus, providing direct access to the university's facilities and study environment. The campus location places study buildings, sports facilities, and other amenities within short distance of the front door.

This arrangement gives the existing residents a voice in who joins the twelve-person household.
