Resident at POHA House Münster

Deciding to live in POHA House was a fantastic choice: here I found a cosy and functional apartment and a familiar environment. I’m new to Münster and this place, with its common spaces and the many events that take place, is the perfect way to make new friends. It’s located near the train station, so very close to the city centre. Despite being close to the trains, it’s a very quiet place, perfect for studying. I can definitely recommend POHA House!

Residents at POHA House Münster

Ahead of a one-year project in Münster, we chose POHA House out of practicality – it was well located, all bills were included and residents and administration spoke English (we are still learning German). We were bracing ourselves for something like a one-year hotel stay, but POHA House is much more than that. The unit is well planned and functional, and the common areas make our living space much bigger than our unit. With the events, we met great new friends – the staff included. Münster was very welcoming to us in all aspects, but at POHA House we felt at home on the second day.

Moving to a new country can be daunting, but POHA House offers a calm option nestled near a picturesque forest, providing a peaceful break from the hustle and bustle. Each carefully renovated living space in the building is equipped with top-tier amenities, making your stay convenient and comfortable. POHA House goes beyond just providing housing. It helps create a strong sense of community, with helpful support from the staff whenever you need it.

POHA has transformed my Aachen experience. It has created an international hub where I can both work effectively and feel at home. The exceptional facilities here exceed all my expectations for a workplace, offering a comfortable environment with cabin booths and meeting rooms readily available. I relish the opportunity to connect with professionals from diverse backgrounds, enriching my work life with valuable insights and perspectives.

Resident and office member at POHA House Aachen Theaterplatz

Returning to Aachen, I was in search of a place that is both modern and flexible, situated in a great location – and POHA House surpassed my expectations. I especially like the integrated office space, which creates a perfect blend for both work and leisure. POHA House is an inclusive place that one can easily and rightly call home, a place that let me personally work and play, be inspired and stay connected.

Resident at POHA House Aachen Theaterplatz

POHA House offers a great solution when moving to a new city: a completely renovated building in the heart of the city with living spaces and house equipment of the highest quality. It also provides the support from the community management in case of need and the opportunity to attend the regularly organised events.

Jaime

Resident at POHA House Aachen Theaterplatz

I really like this place to live. It’s very cosy, well-equipped and the rooms are really nice. The location is great because you have everything near you. So far, the events and workshops that have taken place have been great. There is a wide variety, and POHA provides great activities for when you want to escape routine.

Oliver

Resident at POHA House Aachen Theaterplatz

As more and more people aspire to live in the city, I believe innovative communal living concepts are essential. Living in POHA House is simple and comfortable, while the community management fosters the social aspect of living together. The international and diverse residents are what, for me, adds a significant charm to POHA. I can easily envision myself living here in the long term.

Resident at POHA House Münster

Living here is really nice! It’s like a huge shared apartment, with the advantage that you don’t just have one room, but a whole house as a retreat. The events that take place regularly are super varied and make sure that you get to know each other well. I can recommend it to people who are new in Münster and want to find a connection!

Johannes

Resident at POHA House Münster

The perfect mix of shared apartment and living alone. More cool people are moving in here right now that you can get to know so quickly, and there are awesome events all the time. The prices only seem high if you don’t know what’s in there. Terrace, movie room, yoga room, now and then breakfast, pizza, ice cream or beer… and a super dear team 😉
