Is this place legit?

Registration (inschrijving)The listing says you can register at the address. That's what you need for a BSN, a bank account and huurtoeslag.
Room-rental permit registerNo room-conversion permit notices found for this street. Normal for studios and apartments (they don't need one). For a room in a shared house, ask whether the landlord has a permit.
Scam signalsDeposit is more than 2 months' rent (not allowed in NL). Nothing suspicious in the listing text or price. Scam guide.

What you should know

Income requirement. They want proof of income, usually 3 to 4 times the rent. As a student you almost never pass this. A Dutch guarantor sometimes works, ask before applying.
Extra fees mentioned. Charging a tenant mediation, contract or administration fees is illegal in the Netherlands when the agent also works for the landlord (art. 7:417 BW). You can reclaim these. A small, real cost like a credit check can be OK. If it's hundreds of euros, push back.
Deposit over 2 months. Dutch law caps the deposit at 2 months' rent (since July 2023). This one is higher. You can refuse the excess.
Deposit mentioned. A deposit of one to two months' rent is normal in NL. More than two months is not, and you're entitled to get it back within 14 days of moving out if the room is left in good condition.
