Frequently Asked Questions
How Do I book my Apartment?
Our booking process is an absolute breeze and can be completely carried out online. You just need your private information, a copy of your ID/Passport and your enrollment.
What about if I need to cancel or terminate my contract?
You are signing for a binding contract with fixed durations (mostly for 6 or 12 months), which can not be cancelled. But of course we understand, each request of any changes in the contract is individual and thus we are checking each request also very individually. There are some major reasons which allows you cancel or terminate your lease.
* You’re not receiving a VISA to stay in Germany
* You are an Erasmus student, your program has been cancelled and your study will take place at home again
* Death in your family (first-degree)
* You’re not a student anymore (so you can terminate/shorten your contract to the end of the actual semester)
* You can’t arrive due to closed borders (due to special events like war, pandemic, etc.)
* The government of your home country gave the instruction to travel home (due to special events like war, pandemic, etc.)
Of course we all hope, this will never happen.
When do I have to pay my rent?
The rent shall be paid monthly in advance, at the latest up to the 3rd working day of each month.
What kind of lease durations are available and what does the 1 week earlier move out mean?
Depending on our property you can rent your apartment for a minimum of 6 up to 12 months. During that time of course you always have to be a student. Please note, in order to be able to carry out the cleaning, maintenance and repair measures required as a result of the use of your apartment and for an immediate subsequent letting, your apartment needs to be returned to us one week before your contract end date. We have calculated the rent on the basis of an effective term shortened by one week, so that this provision does not constitute an economic disadvantage for the tenant. If you are planning to extend your stay in the same apartment, of course an earlier move out between your old and your new contract is not required.
What do I need to pay before I can move in? What's included in the first payment?
Your upfront payment includes…
A deposit of one and a half or two month’s rent, depending on the length of your stay. (1.5 months rent for up to 6 months length of stay, otherwise 2 months rent)
The deposit secures among other things damages in the apartment. If you return your apartment in good condition and all rent payments have been duly made, you will receive the deposit back in full no later than 8 weeks after moving out.
The membership fee is a fixed payment for all administrative activities related to your lease and stay at Neon Wood. This amount will not be returned to you.
Is Neon Wood far from my university?
Living at Neon wood, you aren’t going to be far from anywhere. Besides being centrally located, we’re also superbly connected by tram, underground or bus to every major stop in the city.
Are there any other fees or public services I need to pay?
Yes, the “Rundfunkbeitrag” (German „TV tax“) does charge 18,36 € per month irrespective of where you live. But if you are given BAFöG from the German government, you may be able to get out of paying this.
Can I register Neon Wood as my main residence?
Yes, of course. At the very least, it needs to be your secondary residence. Documents for the registration (= “Wohnungsgeberbestätigung”) at the Berlin Offices (= “Bürgeramt”), you’re getting directly after your move-in and apartment handover.
Can I sublet?
Subletting is not permitted.
Do I have to be a student to rent an apartment?
We’re designed to accommodate students. If you’d like to rent with us and you’re not a student, you should at least be in education. Otherwise we highly suggest checking out Tannhaus – our partner brand for young professionals, digital nomads and freelancers.
What does all-incl. rent mean?
The all-inclusive rent pays for your fully furnished apartment and covers the utilities such as water, heating and electricity. Further included in your rent, access to high speed internet (1 Gigabit) and the use of all public areas. 1 Rent = all inclusive… More information you may find in your lease under §3… The rent per floor may vary.
What is the shortest period that I can rent for?
You can book an apartment for either six months or twelve months.
Does my booking automatically renew once my lease expires?
It does not, but you can always renew your lease upon availability. Therefor, please contact our reservations as soon as possible.
What documents do I need for a booking?
You will need…
– A copy of your ID

Is there somewhere I can put my bike?
Yes. There are places to lock up your bike in the courtyard as well as in our basement.
