Help Housing Services


  • Rooms and apartments. The company boasts hundreds of accommodation in the best neighborhoods in the centre of Madrid. They’re spacious and furnished rooms for rent, located in big flats, recently renovated and well equipped.
  • Online booking. As previously mentioned, helpHousing has a website where users can enjoy a full browsing experience, check out rooms, flats and services. You can easily book your accommodation, following a detailed booking process.
  • Online personal account. As soon as you book a room, you’ll receive a login and password to access your account and easily manage your expenses (monthly rent and bills) and check all the details. Transparency is just one click away!
  • Customised service provided by the flat manager during the entire stay.
  • Cleaning service. Yeah, living alone means you’ll be in charge of your own house cleaning tasks – this is the less fun part! But, no worries, helpHousing provides a weekly cleaning service in the common areas of the apartments.
  • Maintenance. This is an important matter, that many young people tend to underestimate. An apartment is just like a product: the more you use it, the more maintenance it needs. Therefore, helpHousing includes a free housekeeping service, to let you enjoy your stay, without anything to worry about.
  • Wi-Fi. In each flat tenants are provided with wi-fi connection to study, work and stay connected with their friends!
  • No guarantees required. Most of the rental agencies and landlords in Madrid ask for Spanish legal documents, job contracts (or university documents) and proof of economic capacity. And this makes the flat-hunting way more tricky. helpHousing operates as an intermediary with the landlords and the company will be accountable for your stay, not asking any of these paperwork!
  • Individual contract. Each contract is personal and unique for your room and detailed with the duration of your stay, according to the dates you pick. You’ll be able to choose among different types of contract and the flat manager will explain every point in the language you prefer among English, Spanish or Italian.

Well, there’s nothing left but enjoying Madrid! Are you ready to settle in your new home abroad?

    Hi, I’m an 19 year old girl, looking to rent a room in a flat with other female students. I’m easy going and would love to make some new friends. I prefer Zona Universitaria. I would like to move in, in the end of August (but I’m flexible), and stay for two semesters, but maybe more.
    If there is anything available, please let me know, thanks.

    Hello,
    Hello,
    I’m interested in renting a room in Help Housing from 25 August 2023 until the end of June 2024. I’m a student starting a Bachelor’s degree at Schiller International University in Madrid this September 2023. Can you please provide me with further information regarding the prices of the rooms, their facilities, their location, and whether utilities are included?
    Thank you in advance.
