Many of the town's commoners live in this sort of accommodation. | |★★| Average Accommodation - Less crowded accommodation, perhaps with a private toilet and a decent fireplace. Home to better off commoners and warriors. | |★★★| Nice accommodation – Some private facilities and access to shared facilities such as access to a laundry and/or sauna. Maybe a single servant or live-out domestics. A suitable home for master craftsmen, professionals and military officers. | |★★★★| Good Accommodation - Lots of good facilities all around and a hand full of servants, that is suitable for the upper middle classes and lesser aristocrats. | |★★★★★| Luxurious Accommodation – most of the facilities, with lots of servants, that is suitable for aristocrats. | |★★★★★★| Very Luxurious Accommodation - suitable for important aristocrats and minor royals.| |★★★★★★★| Ultra Luxurious Accommodation - suitable for royalty.| ===== Description ===== **Slumming It – very cheap rented accommodation.** * Shack - a single room building with little more than a bed and a stool. Found in Shanty towns, Favelas and slums. No Toilets, cook over an open fire etc. * Back to Back – Standard housing for the workers. A three storey 20x15 town house, split into three-six rooms - each rented out separately. The only facilities are a toilet in the yard. This is the standard housing that is built to accommodate workers when they arrive - just about every district has its share of these. They do not generate enough income to make it worth recording. * Tenement – Block of cheap housing with a mix of dormitory accommodation, rooms and basic lodgings. Cooking in small fireplaces in the room, a few shared outside toilets. Ground floor is generally a working class business, such as a cheap bar, soup kitchen, second hand clothes, penny store, etc. This is the best value building for land lords – and needed because they provide an affordable home to most of the town’s workers. **In Business – reasonable rented accommodation.** * Apartment blocks – upscale accommodation blocks made up of apartments of various sizes – from family homes to a nice room for the discerning man about town. They have decent sized fireplaces, and enough shared toilets to go around. Much of the ground floor is given over to business – Possibly a grocer, wine shop or offices. Better quality accommodation, but too expensive for most of the city’s workers. * Lodging House - Rooms and lodgings for the discerning lady or gentlemen about town. The house has a bathroom and sufficient toilets. The land-lady will deliver light meals to your rooms, make sure they are cleaned and get your laundry done for you.
