What is Startup Housing?

 

Startup Housing ensures that you as a student, who start your study in the Municipality of Aalborg (Aalborg Kommune), will be sure to have a temporary roof over your head, if you have not found housing yourself. We will make sure that you have a place to stay until you soon find a place to live. Startup Housing lasts four months from study start mid August.

 

Startup Housing means that you will be sure to have accommodation at Hytteøen Aalborg c/o Tabu Catering ApS, and you will receive a subsidy from the Municipality of Aalborg to help pay the expenses.

 

In order to be comprised by Startup Housing, you must comply with all the conditions laid down by the Municipality of Aalborg – see below under: "You must be particularly aware that".

 

It is very important that you get fully familiar with the rules and conditions, as you will not be covered by Startup Housing if you do not comply with all the requirements.

This pamphlet elaborates and explains some of the conditions. We will also inform you about the terms of accommodation under Startup Housing.

 

You must be particularly aware of:

1. You must comply with all the conditions in: Guidance – ‘Startup Housing’ in the Municipality of Aalborg, which you find atstudieboligaalborg.dk in order to be covered by Startup Housing.
2. You must be registered as an active house hunter at Studiebolig Aalborg. However, you must also look for private housing.
3. Your applicant number at Studiebolig Aalborg must be noted when you book accommodation. You will only receive a subsidy, if your applicant number is noted. If your applicant number has not been noted, you must pay the full expenses for the accommodation yourself.
4. See the next page for how to find your applicant number at Studiebolig Aalborg.
5. Your stay at Hytteøen must be continuous.
6. You must book accommodation at Hytteøen not later than the day before you arrive. However, if you arrive on 31 August, you must book accommodation not later than 25 August.

How to find your applicant number at Studiebolig Aalborg

When you have made an application on Studiebolig Aalborg’s homepage, you will receive a user name and a password to use for logging on to your application. When you log on to your application, your applicant number will be shown.

 

Follow-up and control

The Municipality of Aalborg makes an ongoing control of whether you comply with the conditions in Startup Housing. If you do not comply with the conditions, the municipal subsidy no longer applies, and you must pay the full amount for accommodation at Hytteøen (or move out).

 

Where are you going to stay – accommodation

Startup Housing covers temporary accommodation at Hytteøen Aalborg c/o Tabu Catering ApS.

In peak periods and in case of considerable demand on Startup Housing you can be accommodated elsewhere or in residential containers in the hostel area. In these situations each cabin may hold up to six persons.

You yourselves must keep the cabins clean.

There is very limited room for personal belongings during the accommodation, so you should only count on having room for a suitcase.

There is no special safekeeping storage for valuables or other things at the hostel.

 

Facilities, etc.

In the sanitation building, there are shared kitchen and bathroom/toilet facilities. When many people are staying in the cabins, there may be waiting time for both the kitchen and bathroom/toilet facilities.

The kitchen has a limited supply of kitchen equipment. You should bring or purchase kitchen equipment and utensils yourself (pot, pan, tableware, cutlery, etc.), if you want to cook in the kitchen. Remember to clean up after yourself. All cabins have small refrigerators.

 

Questions/problems regarding the accommodation

You can contact the staff at Tabu Catering ApS, if you have questions or problems regarding the accommodation.

Tabu Catering ApS will do their best to handle all the different situations that arise as soon as the situation allows it, and are always willing to help.

 

We wish you good luck finding a place to stay and welcome you to the Municipality of Aalborg.
