Frequently asked questions
About Mathenesserlaan 390C, Rotterdam
Is €2,495 a fair rent for this apartment?
The rent is 24% above the neighbourhood average of €2,020. However, the floor area of 160 m² is 47% larger than the average of 109 m², so you are paying more but getting considerably more space. Whether that balance works for you depends on how much you value the extra square metres.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C. This is an official registration recorded in EP-Online. It indicates the home's energy performance class but does not say anything specific about the condition of the building or its installations.
How far is the nearest train station?
The nearest train station is 2 km from the home. That is a manageable distance if you commute by rail, though you would likely cycle or take public transport for the last stretch rather than walk it.
What are the neighbours like in Nieuwe Westen?
Residents describe a mixed neighbourhood with many nationalities. One review mentions "many activities for all ages" and "many educational locations." Another calls it a "Quiet neighbourhood" but notes feeling less safe in the evening. One resident also mentions noise from neighbours and some littering around the storage units.
How does the rent compare to other rentals in the area?
The neighbourhood rental market shows an average price of €2,020 and a median of €1,877, with a range from €888 to €3,600. At €2,495, this apartment sits above the average but below the top of the range. The average rental in the area is 109 m², so this home is substantially larger than most.

CBS Mozaiek is 154 m away, De Vierambacht is 212 m away, and IKC de Ark is 307 m away, all primary schools. For secondary education, MEX010 is 327 m away. This makes the area convenient for families with school-age children.
