At Flatroomers we visit many rooms every year and we know very well what makes the difference between just any room… and a room where you’ll truly feel comfortable. Here’s a visual guide with the key points you should check before renting your room.
A room doesn’t need to be huge, but it does need to be practical and comfortable.
A well-organised room helps you study better and feel more at ease.
It sounds obvious, but it’s not always the case. Pay special attention to:
Typical bed sizes in Spain are 90 / 105 / 135 / 150 cm. Ask or check before you arrive.
This is one of the most important elements in a student room.
You’ll spend many hours studying here: this is non-negotiable.
You’ll need space for clothes, notes, suitcases and personal items.
The more order you can maintain, the better your daily life will be.
The best rooms are bright, exterior and with large windows.
If you can choose, always prioritise a room with good natural light.
A private bathroom is a huge plus, especially in shared flats. If it’s shared, check:
In Córdoba this is essential.
Some rooms don’t have air conditioning, but because of the building layout and orientation they may not need it. Always ask beforehand.
In Córdoba, especially in neighbourhoods like Ciudad Jardín, it’s very common to find older buildings without a lift.
Before booking, always ask:
Climbing 4 or 5 floors every day can become your “new free gym”, but it’s better to know that beforehand.
Essential for studying, doing assignments, video calls or watching series. These days, it’s common to have at least 600 Mb fibre.
Sometimes the flat’s atmosphere is more important than the room itself.
Look for a flat that matches your lifestyle and has some basic rules to avoid conflicts.
Having the financial part clear helps you avoid surprises at the end of the month.
At Flatroomers, all conditions are explained clearly and transparently before you book.
A good student room should be comfortable, functional and well equipped, with everything you need to study, rest and live well: a good mattress, desk and chair, natural light, storage, proper temperature control, internet and a flat with a good atmosphere.
