A room in the heart of Rotterdam
This is a room for rent on Sint-Jacobstraat, right in the middle of Rotterdam's Stadsdriehoek. 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 room itself. At €460 per month, the rent sits well below the average for rooms in Rotterdam, which makes it a keen option for a student or young professional.
