Who This Residence Suits
Girona Tarradellas is a purpose-built student residence at 15, 17006 Girona, Spain. It offers studio and non-ensuite room types with monthly rents ranging from €625 to €879 (indicative — confirm with the operator). The property is particularly well-suited to students who value independence in a compact living space and those who prefer an all-inclusive arrangement that covers utility bills. The presence of a gym and laundry facility on site means residents can handle everyday needs without leaving the building.
This residence is a strong fit for:
- Students who want a centrally located base. Multiple Google reviews highlight the central position, easy access to parking, and walkability. One reviewer noted it is “centrally located, easy to park and walk everywhere, with free parking nearby.” For a student without a car, the ability to reach the city core on foot is a practical advantage.
- Those who appreciate air-conditioned living spaces. The Mediterranean climate in Girona can bring warm summers, and one review specifically mentions “air conditioned rooms.” This feature adds comfort during hotter months and is not always standard in older student housing in Spain.
- Individuals who prioritise a supportive on-site team. Verbatim feedback from residents describes the staff as “truly wonderful, always helpful and kind” and notes that they “make you feel right at home.” A responsive management team can significantly reduce the stress of adapting to a new city.
- Students who prefer a short deposit of €250 (indicative), which is lower than the typical one-month deposit required by many private rentals. This reduces upfront financial pressure.
Conversely, the residence may not suit everyone:
- Students on a tight budget should note that the minimum rent of €625 matches the city’s starting price for student housing (€625 from price), but the upper end of €879 pushes into a higher bracket. Those seeking the cheapest possible room in Girona have only one option at the minimum — this property itself — since no other student residence appears in the city data. If the €625 room is taken, the next available will be more expensive.
- Residents who need a shared social atmosphere may find the non-ensuite room type limiting. While a studio offers privacy, it can also be isolating. The property has no common areas listed beyond the gym and laundry, so students looking for lounges, study zones, or organised events should check directly with the operator for communal spaces.
- Anyone requiring a short-term lease or flexible move-in date should be aware that availability begins from 13 July 2026. The minimum lease length is not provided in the data (null), so you must confirm the minimum tenancy term with the operator before booking.
What Residents Say
Google reviews give the property a 4.8 rating from 38 reviews (as of the data date). The following quotes come directly from those reviews and reflect actual resident experience.
- “Fantastic quality for a fair price, air conditioned rooms.” — pucek pucek (5 stars)
- “We stayed for a couple of nights. Centrally located, easy to park and walk everywhere, with free parking nearby. Cozy apartment with two single bedrooms. Young and friendly staff. Highly recommended. We’d definitely stay again.” — Jordi de Luna (5 stars)
- “Living in our residence is fantastic, thanks to an exceptional team. From the moment you walk through the front door, they make you feel right at home, something special. The receptionists are truly wonderful, always helpful and kind. They are incredibly helpful in any situation, and attend to every inquiry with dedica[ted care].” — Martin Rocamora Hellín (5 stars)
The feedback consistently emphasises three points: value for money, helpful staff, and central location. The mention of “cosy apartment with two single bedrooms” suggests the non-ensuite rooms may be configured as shared apartments, but the data only lists “non_ensuite” as a unit type, so you should clarify the exact bedroom layout during enquiry.
No negative reviews appear in the sample. However, the total review count is only 38, so the high rating may reflect a small sample of mostly positive experiences. Cross-checking with other platforms (not provided here) would give a fuller picture.
Price Positioning in Girona
The city of Girona has exactly one student residence in the data set (Girona Tarradellas itself), with a starting price of €625 per month. That means this property also sets the city’s from-price. Its range of €625–€879 (indicative) covers the full spectrum of what is currently available in the formal student housing market in Girona.
To contextualise:
- The lower end (€625) is the entry-level price for a non-ensuite room. This is comparable to what a private room in a shared flat might cost in the wider Girona rental market, though private rentals often exclude bills and require a higher deposit. Since this residence includes bills, the €625 figure may represent better value when utilities are factored in.
- The upper end (€879) corresponds to a studio apartment. Private studios in Girona’s centre can range from €700 to over €1,000 for similar-sized units, depending on condition and amenities. Given that this price includes a gym, on-site laundry, and bills, it is competitive against private listings.
- The deposit of €250 (indicative) is notably low. Typical deposits in Spain are one or two months’ rent; a flat €250 reduces the initial cash outlay significantly.
- Availability runs from 13 July 2026, which aligns with the start of the academic term for many European universities. Students arriving earlier for summer language courses may need to negotiate an earlier move-in date or find interim accommodation.
Because this is the only dedicated student residence identified in the city, price competition within this sector is absent. However, students can compare with shared flats on the open market via local portals, where prices may be lower but bills, quality, and tenancy protections vary.
Room Type Guidance
Two room types are offered: studio and non-ensuite.
-
Studio: A self-contained unit with a private kitchen and bathroom. Ideal for those who want complete privacy and control over their living schedule. The monthly price at the upper end (€879 indicative) reflects this independence. Studios typically appeal to postgraduates, students who work part-time, or anyone who prefers not to share kitchen and bathroom facilities.
-
Non-ensuite: A bedroom within a shared apartment, where the bathroom and likely the kitchen are communal. The data does not specify whether the non-ensuite is a single or twin room, but one review mentions “two single bedrooms,” so it may be part of a two-bedroom unit. This type suits students who want a lower rent (starting at €625 indicative) and are comfortable sharing common spaces with flatmates.
When choosing, consider your tolerance for shared living. The non-ensuite option can foster social connections but depends on the compatibility of flatmates. The studio option trades social interaction for autonomy. Neither type includes catered meals, so you will need to budget for groceries and cooking.
Booking Timing
Rooms are available from 13 July 2026. Given that the property holds the only student residence in the city data, demand — particularly for the lower-priced non-ensuite rooms — may be high. Booking early (ideally several months before the July start date) gives you the best chance of securing the room type and price you prefer.
- If you need to move in before 13 July 2026, contact the operator to see if early arrival can be arranged.
- If you are starting in September (typical for many Spanish universities), the July start date allows you to reserve a room well ahead. Some operators offer deferred move-in dates; confirm this.
- Keep in mind that prices are indicative and may change between now and the start of your tenancy. Always confirm the final rent and any additional fees (e.g., utilities cap, administration fees) before signing.
Because no minimum lease length is stated, ask the operator about semester-only or full-year contracts. Short-term stays may be possible but require explicit confirmation.
FAQ
How does the rent compare to private rentals in Girona?
The residence’s monthly rent of €625–€879 (indicative — confirm with the operator) includes utility bills, a gym, and laundry facilities. In the private market, a similar room in a shared flat typically costs €400–€600 per month, but bills (electricity, water, internet) are extra and can add €80–€150. A private studio in the city centre often starts around €700 without bills. When you factor in the included amenities and low deposit (€250), the residence offers competitive pricing for an all-inclusive package. However, private listings on general rental websites may offer lower headline rents if you are willing to manage bills yourself and accept a longer deposit.
Is the property near any university campuses?
The data set does not list any specific universities in Girona. The address “15, 17006 Girona” places the residence within the city. Girona’s main university area (University of Girona) has campuses in the historic centre and at Montilivi. Based on the central location noted by reviewers, walking to the city-centre faculty is feasible, but you should verify the distance to your specific faculty using a map service. The residence is not affiliated with any education agency or institution brand.
What is included in “bills included”?
The property has a “bills_included” tag. This typically covers water, electricity, gas, and internet. The exact scope — such as any caps on utility consumption or whether the internet speed is shared — should be confirmed with the operator. The review mentioning “air conditioned rooms” suggests electricity costs for cooling are covered, but it is wise to ask if there is a monthly allowance or excess fee.
