Host Family and Shared Accommodation:

Accommodation is with families or individuals who rent their homes of anything between two and five rooms for volunteers, interns and travelers from all over the world, as well as to Nicaraguan students. The result is a mix of family and shared life, wherein one or the other may predominate. This form of housing is characteristic of the Nicaraguan city of León, the reason being that many inhabitants of the city, especially in the city center, live in large colonial houses; but the families have become smaller and rooms are free. León is a student city, and it has long been common place that you sublet.
 
The rooms are usually equipped with a bed, a table and chair, as well as a storage space for clothes. In some houses, the rooms have a private bathroom and in the others, the bathroom is shared with the owners, other foreign visitors or Nicaraguan students.
 
You get your own key and can decide how closely or otherwise you want to live with families. Bed linen is provided and the room is cleaned weekly. It is not permitted to have overnight guests in the rooms.
 
For an extra charge, there is wifi internet and the kitchen can be used. You can also decide whether you want to eat with the family. Breakfast costs 2.50 USD, lunch and dinner 3.50 USD and 3 USD. Please see below, the example of the menu in Spanish.
