Introduction

You have many options, depending on your preferences and budget. However, we have one recommendation, based on feedback from former students: “One last note about accommodation assistance. I stayed at the Juan Luis Vives University Residence in Chamartín, which you recommended to me. It’s an AMAZING place: I paid much less than what other SSEB students had told me, and it was perfect for such a short stay in the city, with all the necessary amenities. I suggest you promote these facilities even more on your website as a recommendation for accommodation!”

Here is the 2026 brochure for our number one recommendation: Juan Luis Vives University Residence Hall 2026.
