Overview
SPC 28007 is a student residence located in Getafe, a municipality in the southern metropolitan area of Madrid, Spain. It is operated under the XIOR brand and offers shared apartment-style accommodation in configurations ranging from 4-bedroom to 7-bedroom units, plus independent houses. Monthly rent spans from €505 to €740 — indicative, confirm with the operator. The property holds a Google rating of 4.8 from 232 reviews. The minimum lease length is 4 months, making it suitable for semester stays or longer.
The property’s address is listed simply as “Spain”; the exact coordinates place it in Getafe (lat. 40.406, lng. -3.67), a residential area with good transport links to central Madrid. Getafe hosts several university campuses, and the residence is a practical base for students studying in the southern zone. Compared to the city-wide student housing from-price of €232 (likely for a shared room in older buildings or further out), SPC 28007 sits at a higher price point, reflecting its branded management, modern amenities, and favourable reviews.
Who This Residence Suits
SPC 28007 works best for students who prioritise an organised, secure, and modern living environment outside the city centre.
Ideal for:
- Students enrolled at universities in Getafe or south Madrid who want a short commute.
- Those comfortable living in shared flats (4–7 residents) with individual bedrooms.
- Residents who value a responsive management team and a well-maintained building.
- Parents seeking reassurance: the positive reviews from a parent (see below) highlight staff support and ease of visiting.
- Semester-long exchange students (minimum 4-month lease fits typical semester durations).
- People who prefer a quieter residential neighbourhood over a bustling city-centre location.
Less suitable for:
- Students who need an ultra-budget option (the price is significantly above the city’s lowest advertised rates).
- Those who want a private studio or a 1-bedroom apartment — this property only offers shared flats or houses.
- Students who thrive on nightlife or social scenes in central Madrid — the location is Getafe, not Malasaña or Sol.
- Anyone seeking short-term stays under 4 months (e.g., a summer course of 2 months).
- Students who must share a room — each letting appears to be for a single bedroom in a multi-bedroom unit.

Price Positioning vs City From-Price
The city of Madrid (including Getafe) has a student housing from-price of €232 per month, according to the platform’s aggregated data covering 97 properties. This low anchor likely represents a single bed in a shared older flat or a room in a student residence far from the centre.
SPC 28007 starts at €505/month and goes up to €740/month. That is roughly 2.2 to 3.2 times the city’s lowest advertised price.
What does this premium buy?
- Branded student housing operator (XIOR) with dedicated management.
- Modern furnishings and a desk in each room (tagged amenities).
- Wi-Fi included in the rent.
- Higher overall guest satisfaction (4.8 stars).
- A secure, purpose-built environment rather than a generic private rental.
For students on a tight budget, cheaper alternatives exist in shared apartments or more traditional residencias. But if you prioritise quality, safety, and a positive track record, the premium is modest compared to Madrid’s more central branded residences, which often exceed €800–€1,000 per month.
Remember: all prices are indicative — confirm with the operator before booking.
Room-Type Guidance
The property offers the following unit types:
- 4-bedroom (4b) – Shared flat with four single bedrooms.
- 5-bedroom (5b) – Shared flat with five single bedrooms.
- 6-bedroom (6b) – Shared flat with six single bedrooms.
- 7-bedroom (7b) – Larger shared flat with seven single bedrooms.
- Branded independent house – A self-contained house operated under the same management, likely with multiple bedrooms and common areas.
All units appear to include a desk (tagged as “Desk”) and Wi-Fi. There is no indication of studio or en-suite options; you will share bathroom and kitchen facilities with flatmates.
Choosing the right room size:
- 4-bedroom: Fewer flatmates, more common-space per person. Suitable if you prefer a quieter flat.
- 6- or 7-bedroom: Larger flats, likely more social but potentially louder. May be slightly lower in price per person.
- Independent house: Best for groups of friends who want to live together under the same operator’s supervision.
No deposit is listed in the data — confirm the deposit amount and any other fees directly.
Booking Timing
The minimum lease length is 4 months. Given that the data is current for the 2026/2027 booking season, here is a general timeline:
- For the September 2026 intake (fall semester): Start searching in early 2026. Many properties open bookings around February–April. By May, popular configurations may sell out.
- For a January 2027 start (spring semester): Book by October–November 2026.
- Short stays (minimum 4 months): Flexible; but booking 2–3 months ahead is advisable to secure your preferred room type.
Since the property has received consistently high marks (4.8 from 232 reviews), demand is likely steady. For the best chance at a 4-bedroom unit or a specific floor plan, contact the operator early.
FAQ
Is this residence close to university campuses in Getafe?
Yes — Getafe is home to several higher education institutions, including the campus of Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M). The residence’s exact location is not detailed on the listing, but reviews describe it as well located. We recommend checking distance to your specific faculty using a map service. The Metro line 12 (MetroSur) has stops in Getafe, and there are also Cercanías trains to Madrid city centre.
What is included in the rent?
The tags indicate “Desk” and “Wi-Fi”. Beyond that, details such as bills (electricity, water, gas), cleaning service, and use of common areas must be confirmed with the operator. Based on typical XIOR residences, rent often covers utilities and internet, but this is not guaranteed. Always ask for a full list of inclusions before signing.
Can I book for a single semester (4 months)?
Yes — the minimum lease is exactly 4 months, which aligns with a typical semester abroad. Make sure your academic calendar matches the start and end dates. If you need a shorter term (e.g., 3 months), this property will not be suitable.
