Nieuwe Westen, Rotterdam
NeighbourhoodThis is a rental room on Rochussenstraat in Rotterdam, in the lively Nieuwe Westen neighbourhood. This listing 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 €950 per month, the rent is well below the neighbourhood average for a room (€823), so it's keenly priced compared to other rooms in the area. For more context, see rooms in Rotterdam.

I live in a noisy house myself and have a lot of noise from the neighbours. Which is why I'm looking for another house. But apart from that, it's a nice neighbourhood here. With many nationalities living together in one neighbourhood. There are many activities for all ages. And there are many educational locations in my neighbourhood. But in my flat, there are also people who unfortunately just throw rubbish down from their window. As a result, there are food scraps behind the houses near the storage units and on the roof of the storage units.
