NeighbourhoodA bright apartment on Rooseveltstraat

Frequently asked questions
About Rooseveltstraat 213, Leiden
Is €2,290 a fair rent for this apartment?
The rent is above the average of €2,090 for rentals in the Gasthuiswijk, and the median is €2,033. However, the floor area of 80 m² is larger than the average of 73 m², which partly explains the higher price. Whether it is fair depends on how you value the extra space and the central location.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?

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.
