HTTP REST API Java EE. AWS Aurora persistence.
The apartments.studentsville.it portal matches accommodation supply and demand, offering detailed information, a map search, booking possibilities and real time communications between hosts and guests.
The StudentsVille.it staff specialises in finding apartments and student accommodation throughout Italy. The StudensVille portal offers features aimed at both hosts, who can place ads for apartments, rooms or various types of accommodation they want to rent out, and guests, who can search using a series of filters, use a map to check the position of the accommodation and nearby services, look at photographs and all the detailed information on the apartments and the areas in which they are located.
Users can contact the hosts to request further information or make the reservation immediately and proceed to the secure online payment if the advertisement allows it.
The portal also features a "search for a flatmate" function, which allows users to consult a message board and directly contact the person who posted an ad or insert a new ad, which will be visible to those who carry out a search.
