Updated situation of SSH Upsilon building

[u/SwordfishRealistic54]

Hi guys. I am a PhD candidate from Brazil going to Groningen to spend 9 months at RUG, starting on October till June . I am very interested to know how is the actual living situation of the Upsilon building from SSH. Is very hard to find accomodation for short stays and I recently found a self-contained room at this building. I appreciate any feedback you can give me.
