15 Frequently Asked Questions Student Accommodations

At all of our accommodations we include fresh bed linen, but you will have to bring your own towels.

At the shared apartments and student residences there is always Wi-Fi for you to use. At the homes of our host families it depends on the availability, however, these days most homes have a good Wi-Fi connection.

Whether you choose our student residence or shared apartment, you will be within 10-15 minutes of your don Quijote school. If you choose to stay with a host family the maximum distance is 30 minutes, on foot or by public transportation.
 

Half board includes two meals per day: breakfast and dinner.

Check-in is at 12 p.m. (2 p.m. in Malaga) on the Sunday before your first day of class (Monday). Check-out is at 12 p.m. (10 a.m. in Malaga) on the Saturday after your last day of class (usually Friday).

Both are great options and can add many qualities to your experience! Here are a few things to keep in mind.

Shared apartments offer independence and flexibility. You will be sharing common spaces with roommates including the living room, kitchen, and bathroom. You'll have a common space to enjoy chatting with friends or studying. You can look forward to going grocery shopping (an excuse to practice Spanish!), because you will be preparing your own meals and washing your own clothes. Of course, you will not have to worry about bedding, electricity or water. Everything is included. However, you will be responsible for cleaning the apartment along with your roommates.

Our student residences also offer independence and flexibility, but provide some cleaning and cooking services to save you time to focus on your studies. Students come from all over the world, and our residences vary in size from a capacity of 15 to 150 students. Don’t like to cook? No problem! We offer breakfast, lunch and dinner. We also give you the option to have an en suite private or shared bathroom at most locations. All residences are within a convenient distance from our schools, right in the heart of the city. The price is a little higher than a shared apartment, however, there are more services available to you!

You will not be put on a schedule and can come and go as you please. However, we ask that you are considerate of the family and are especially careful not to disturb them at night.
