Kanaleneiland-Zuid, Utrecht
NeighbourhoodThis listing is for a room on Marco Pololaan in Utrecht, but it does not state a house number, 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 room itself. At €980 per month, the rent is 52% below the neighbourhood average of €2,021, but without knowing the size, it's hard to say whether that's keen or not. For context, the average room in the area goes for €450, so this is well above that. See rooms in Utrecht for more options.
