A room in the heart of Enschede
This room on Achter 't Hofje puts you right in the middle of Enschede's city centre, where the streets are busy and everything you need is close by. This listing does not state a house number, postcode, floor area, year of construction or energy label. As a result, the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the home itself. At €550 per month, the rent sits well below the average for rooms in Enschede, which is a keen price for a central spot.
The City neighbourhood
The City neighbourhood is a lively, compact area where most residents live alone, and a large share are students and young adults. One resident says: "The neighbourhood is very friendly and tidy. Many new buildings are being built for students and first-time buyers! Everything is very close by, which is super convenient." Another notes: "Living in the city centre is convenient because everything is close by in terms of shops." A third is more critical, mentioning "a lot of junkies" and "little social cohesion", though they also point out the easy access to the station. Based on four reviews, the picture is mixed, but the convenience of city living comes through clearly.
Life on the street
For daily groceries, Jumbo and Albert Heijn are just around the corner, with SPAR a couple of streets away and Ekoplaza a five-minute walk. For school runs, the nearest primary schools are a ten-minute walk, including Openbare Basisschool De Bothoven Freinetbasisschool and Al Ummah. The train station is a five-minute walk, which makes getting around easy. The area is part of the municipality of Enschede, where the city centre offers a wide range of shops and services.
