The asking rent of €2,275 is above the average of €2,090 for rentals in the Gasthuiswijk, and also above the median of €2,033. The average price per square metre in the area is €28.7, so for an 80 m² apartment, this rent is on the high side.

Auto-translated to English by AICosy flat with many elderly residents. A nice dog walking area that I look out onto. Also a beautiful park. However, too few shops, so little choice unfortunately. Only the park is not lit and there are regularly homeless people who also sleep in the bushes! The park is well maintained though. In short, I am very satisfied with the neighbourhood.
