Room Types for Student Accommodation in Toronto

Amber's huge range of affordable student housing Toronto offers you great options to organize your home life based on how much privacy you want and how big your space should be:

1. Studio Apartments: Studio apartments are small, self-contained living spaces where everything is in one room except for the bathroom. That's why studio apartments are fully self-contained units with private bedrooms, personal bathrooms, and compact kitchen areas.

2. 1-Bedroom Apartments: A 1-bedroom apartment is the type of housing where the bedroom is completely separate from the main living and kitchen areas. The separation of bedroom and living room/kitchen areas allows for individual sleep security and entertainment, and a host/work activity division.

3. 2-Bedroom Apartments: These apartments have two entirely private bedrooms, and the residents share the other facilities, like the kitchen, bathroom, and living room. This type of semi-private arrangement allows each student to have their own bedroom whilst still sharing common spaces only with one other peer, which is perfect for a quiet, collaborative living experience.

4. Shared Apartments: Shared apartments include a number of private bedrooms within one unit where residents share common areas like the kitchen and living room. This kind of living arrangement encourages a social community environment, whereby one can easily make friends with roommates, all the while keeping one's own sleeping space private.
