It is no easy task to look for accommodation in a new city or remotely, but many possibilities are available to you: student residences in the public or private sector, apartment hotels, apartments, shared accommodation, rooms in private homes, etc.
The important thing is to clearly define your needs and constraints (search criteria, budget), and to start your search early enough, ideally two months before the start of your stay.
If you prefer to take the time to look for accommodation locally, you can also book temporary accommodation for the first few weeks of your stay. Even if this solution is more expensive in the short term, it gives you more peace of mind in finding accommodation that meets your expectations.
