Even in day time only the students are allowed, the security said with a limited english. I showed him on the list that between 08-20 everyone is allowed, he said no just students. maybe it's because of the summer break i don't know, couldn't understand fully

Only Semmelweis students can be there in the evening/night. As a PhD student from Pécs, I can only stay until 8 pm.

Nice environment and 24h open is very important to some students.

Fanni Gyuró Edited 8 years ago

This is a totally depressive place with lots of terrible books. Medical students tend to spend half of their lives here.
