At the block G-H where Erasmus students stay, there are 3-bed rooms with their own fridge, toilet, and shower. On each floor, there is a shared kitchen, which may also be equipped with a bunch of common pots and pans.

This dormitory also doesn’t provide room service, such as cleaning, changing sheets or towels.

Once you get accommodated, you will receive a yellow accommodation card with your photo. The rules are just the same as at the Hliny dorms. Don’t lose it. Ever. You will need it when you want something from the reception – vacuum cleaner, clean sheets, board games… anything and everything revolves around the accommodation card.

Also, the “rules” regarding the dorm ladies apply as well. As long as you´re nice, they are nice. Always greet them, they are also just humans only doing their job.

Cleaning

There is no room service (cleaning, changing the sheets, taking out the trash). Also, you won´t get fresh towels, only clean sheets at the reception. You can wash them yourself in the laundry room or you can ask the dorm ladies for a clean one (they will usually ask you if you want to change them every 2-3 weeks).

At the reception, you can also borrow a vacuum cleaner and some cleaning supplies for free (in exchange for your accommodation card).

Laundry room and Drying room

The laundry room (“práčovňa”) is in the entry hall. The washing machines are not free, usually, you need to pay 2€ per 2-hour wash. Also, there are no washing products, so you better you’re your own (the best ones are the all-in-one capsules that you just throw inside the machine.

When your clothes are clean, you can use the drying room (“sušiareň”) on the fourth floor with shared racks to hang them. Please, don’t occupy this shared space for too long.

Shared rooms – shower, kitchen, study room

On the 5th and 6th floors, there are study rooms. To be able to use either the kitchen or a study room, again you need to ask the dorm ladies for a key (and leave your card there). Once you´re done in the kitchen, clean up after yourself and return the key. There are usually some shared pans, pots, and dishes, but you can also use your own.

Just outside the block G-H, you will find a student pizzeria and bar Paladeo. They have delicious pizza and cheap beer and often host karaoke as well.

When you enter the G-H and go past the reception, on the left there is our ESN office. Our meetings are every Monday in case you need help with anything.

Before you pass the reception, look at the right door and you will see an entrance to the dormitory cinema! People from GAMA KLUB take care of this place and play movies every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday at 20,00. The entrance fee is voluntary, and the popcorn is only for 0,50€.

Canteen

In the block E-F, there is a buffet, café and Treska bar (little canteen).

Near the dormitory, there is the Nová Menza canteen. It´s a modern and bigger version of Stará Menza from Hliny dorms. You can get food here from Monday to Friday. You can either order it beforehand through portal strava.uniza.sk (once you activate your university account), or you can pay on the spot with money charged to your ISIC. The menu always offers 3 meals you can choose from. All of them consist of soup (“polievka”), a main meal, and a refillable drink. There is always pizza as well but not for everyone (first come, first take). Just tell the ladies which number you want, then click it on the machine and scan your ISIC.

The menu is published daily on Menza´s Instagram or on the website we already mentioned above.

Just across from the Nová Menza, you will see the University Library.

Sports Facility

When you march to the left from Nová Menza – to the direction of the university – you will go past the Veľký Diel gym.
You can assign your P.E. as a part of your uni schedule (but it will be obligatory to go there regularly), or you can pay 1,50€ every time you go there. There is also an option to buy a permanent ticket (35€ per semester).

You can assign for other sports at https://vzdelavanie.uniza.sk/
