Finding an apartment can be a difficult task. If you have already arrived in Tuebingen or looking for a single room appartment, then its comparatively easy to find an apartment. If you have access to university Mensa (Cafeteria), then don't forget to look on advertisement posters, this is prehaps the easiest and quickest solution. You can also have a look on these commission free websites.
