I'm coming to Melbourne for the first time to study. I've looked at many houses 🏡, and I really like shared accommodations. But it's really difficult to apply for them, I've been rejected countless times 😞. Many landlords are not responsive 😒. So, I tried contacting agents, but they were also unhelpful. In the end, I gave in and decided to rent a studio in a student apartment. Finding a place to live is really tough 😭. But in terms of the living experience, I feel that student apartments are not bad, except for the smaller size 😄.
