Advantages of living in a university residence
Living in a university residence has great advantages, whether it is the first time you are living away from your parents’ home, or if you have already had previous experiences. Although you may think that at first it will be difficult to adapt and you may even feel a little scared about it, the reality is quite different. At Unihabit we bring together all the essentials to make your stay unique, entertaining and unforgettable.
Living together in a university hall of residence
From the very first day you will feel accompanied, both by the warm welcome that our team will give you and by the exciting and familiar atmosphere that you will feel within the walls of a university residence.
In the first few weeks you will experience magical moments, such as meeting many people from different parts of the world, or the first times you will share moments with your new companions. The friendships you make in the residence hall are so intense and special that they are for life.
Living in a residence is like having a second family. If you have had a hard day and you just want to talk to a friend and rest, you have your own space for that, it is like being at home. Or if, on the contrary, you feel like having a good time and doing some activity, you will always find someone who is willing to venture out and join you.
Also, remember that the Unihabit team is available 24 hours a day to make your day-to-day life easier, they will help and support you in everything you need during your stay, whatever the situation, they will be your best ally.
Housework in a university hall of residence
The list of tasks you have to do when you live in a Unihabit residence hall is much shorter than when you share a flat. At Unihabit all the basic services are included:
On the one hand, the cleaning of your room and the cleaning of the common areas is included in the fee. Likewise, you also have other essential services that you can hire separately, such as parking space, laundry, or if you need any kitchen utensils or kitchenware such as towels or sheets.
On the other hand, living in Unihabit not only will you forget about having to contract and pay for the Internet, gas or electricity, but also, if they break down, you will be able to contact reception and the maintenance staff will take care of it immediately.
Living in this way allows you to dedicate more time to other tasks or hobbies, such as studying, relaxing and resting or sharing experiences with your colleagues and friends. It’s all advantages!

Leisure activities are usually organised on a weekly basis, so boredom will not be an option: parties and themed events, a variety of workshops, sports activities and tournaments, board games, cultural visits, excursions to amusement parks or to nature, among many others.
