Joining Chester
Can anyone apply for a room?
Our homes are best suited for professionals or those planning a longer stay in the city. As most residents have a professional routine, our homes are mainly designed for working professionals (with a soft spot for PhD candidates). Our rooms are designed for one person to enjoy their own space.
Viewing & Booking
Can I visit the house before booking?
We respect our residents’ daily routines and avoid disturbing them, whether they’re cooking dinner, relaxing after work or simply enjoying their home. For that reason, in-person visits are not standard. Instead, you can explore the house through virtual tours and authentic photos, giving you a good overview of the house and the available rooms. Of course, we’re always happy to answer any questions.

Can I leave earlier than planned?
Yes. Once the minimum stay has been completed, you can end your lease at any time with two months' notice by email. If you leave earlier, a one month fee applies unless you're covered by early departure insurance or find a new resident to take over your room.
Cost & payments
Is a deposit required?
Yes, a security deposit equivalent to two months’ rent is required.
Are there any one-time fees?
There is a one time fee of €250, covering the application process, the inventory check and the final cleaning at the end of your stay. This helps ensure a smooth move in and move out experience.
