A room in the heart of Groningen
This is a room for rent on Oudeweg, right in the middle of Groningen's lively Binnenstad-Oost. The listing does not state a floor area, year of construction or energy label, so the rest of this page is mainly about the street and the neighbourhood, not the room itself. At €777 a month, the rent sits well below the average for rooms in Groningen, which makes it a keen option in this part of town.
