The summer holidays are in full swing and that means the INTRO is approaching. Three days full of parties, new friends, fun games and memorable moments. And yes, you can also stay overnight. In fact, you will want to. Here you can read about overnight stays, costs, locations and the essentials you need to bring with you.
Reserve somewhere to sleep (before all options are booked)
Staying overnight during the INTRO is not only super fun, but also very convenient. No hassle with travelling home late or getting up way too early. Saxion arranges comfortable places to sleep in Apeldoorn, Deventer and Enschede where you can spend the night together with other students. Don't wait too long to reserve a spot as places are limited.
How does it work?
You pay €25 per night, including breakfast. You book the overnight stay as a complete package and your luggage will be brought to your sleeping location on the first day. Nice and easy.

Baggage tip
There’s nothing more annoying than losing your bags. So here's a tip: label your belongings with your name and phone number. Make sure that loose items, such as your sleeping bag or pillow, are securely attached to your bag. This way you prevent something from getting lost during transport.
