Some important information

  • Mentor students accompany you to your hostel and help you with the check-in process and signing the accommodation contract. As a general rule, the contract is valid from the date you sign it until the end of the academic year, which is June 30 each year. Students arriving outside office hours are required to visit the office on the next working day during office hours to sign the contract.
  • Please, note that no payment is needed on arrival. For state-scholarship degree students the accommodation is included in their scholarship.
  • The hostel has a multicultural community with various habits and lifestyles, so tolerance is a key factor for the residing students. Our additional free services include: iron, hairdryer, bed linen (weekly change), kitchen utensils, chlotes dryer, board games, and table tennis.

Basic rules in Bolyai Student Hostels and UNI-Hostel

The hostel has a multicultural community with various habits and lifestyles. Tolerance is a key factor for the residing students. While we encourage socialising and making new friends, there is one universal rule in the hostel, that every student must keel: as a general rule, after 10 PM in the study period and throughout the exam period students must create a quite environment, without any disturbances.

Safety

Student hostels offer safe accommodation with their 24/7 security and caretaker service (face control at the entrance). Should you arrive late at night or early in the morning you can still occupy your room immediately.

Fire safety

In Hungary, smoking is prohibited by the law in public buildings and in the surroundings as well!

Smoking and using Hookah/Narghile is strictly forbidden in the building. Doing so has serious legal and administrative consequences. There are designated areas for smoking next to the entrances.

Do not put any hot objects on the floor, on the table or on top of the fridge.
Electric kitchenware such as, ricecookers, kettles, microwave ovens must not be used in the bedroom.Anyone who smokes in a prohibited area must pay a 5,000 HUF fine.

Anyone who causes a false fire alarm three times must also pay a 5,000 HUF fine.If the fire department responds to a false fire alarm, the cost of the response will be charged to the student responsible for the false alarm.

Checking the rooms

Periodically, the hostel management keeps a prescheduled room-check. Students are informed about these room-checks well in advance. 

Having a guest

You can invite guests to your room provided that they are registered by the doorman beforehand and that you have the permission of the deputy-director. Please be prepared that certain extra fee is to be paid for your guest. The Guest Registration Form is available at the Student Hostel. (If there is a vacant bed in the room and the other roommates assent to it in advance, then you get the permission. Without a permission, every guest (who lives in another hostel or outside) must leave the building until 11:00 PM)

Washing

There is a laundry room on each floor, you can use the washing machines free of charge, but you have to buy your own washing powder and washing liquid. 

Cleanliness

We kindly ask you to keep a healthy standard of cleanliness in your block.
Please, pay extra attention to the following: 

  • Take out the trash on a daily basis
  • Keep the sink clean. It can easily get clogged if you flush food down on it. Its sole purpose is to wash your dishes in it.
  • Keep the kitchen and the toilet clean!
  • Use the shower curtain. If too much water gets out it can easily go dripping down from the ceiling on the floor below. Also, too much water on the floor causes limescale.
Damage report

Each and every student is responsible for the condition of their room and for the furniture in it (has to pay the repair costs if needed). If damage occurs you shall report it immediately at the Reception.

Small accidents happen from time to time. It is important to report the damage immediately so the maintenance unit of the Hostels could fix the problem as quick as possible. Most frequent problems: clogged shower drains, kitchen sinks, burned out light bulbs, broken furniture. On the day of check-in, every student has the opportunity to assess the condition of their room and report any technical issues or damages using a designated form. After completing the form, it must be submitted to the reception. If any damage occurs in the room during the academic year, the student will be held responsible for covering the repair costs.

Renting a flat

To search for an apartment, you may need the help of your mentor student. The monthly rental price of a two-room apartment typically ranges from 100 000 to 150 000 HUF (250-380 EUR). The price can vary based on the surroundings, distance from the university or proximity to the city centre. It is important to note that utility bills and the property management fee are not included in the rental fee.
