HAB 28004 is a student residence located in Getafe, a city in the southern metropolitan area of Madrid, Spain. The property is listed on a global student‑housing platform with an average Google rating of 4.8 out of 5, based on 232 reviews. It offers a communal space, dining room, and laundry facilities. The earliest move‑in date shown is 29 March 2026. The property’s name in the listing is HAB 28004, which corresponds to the XIOR Student Housing network in Madrid, as referenced in resident reviews.

Who this residence suits
HAB 28004 is best suited for students who prioritise a modern, secure environment with good facilities. Residents consistently mention the building’s condition and location. The available amenities — a dining room, communal space, and laundry — make it practical for students who want shared social areas without sacrificing privacy in their own room.
The residence is a good fit for:
- Students attending universities in Getafe or southern Madrid – The location reduces daily commuting time.
- Students who value a supportive, English‑friendly administration – Several reviewers highlight the helpfulness of staff, especially for international students and their families.
- Those looking for a shorter stay – Although no minimum lease length is provided in the data, the property is available from late March 2026, which could suit a spring semester or a summer term.
- Students who prefer a quieter suburban environment – Getafe is less hectic than central Madrid, with lower noise levels and more green spaces.
Who this residence does not suit
HAB 28004 may not be ideal for:
- Students who need to be in central Madrid every day – The daily commute to the city centre (e.g., Universidad Complutense or Universidad Politécnica) takes 20–30 minutes one way plus waiting time. If you have early‑morning or late‑evening classes frequently, the travel can become tiring.
- Those on a tight budget – The property’s price is not publicly listed on the platform, but Getafe’s overall student‑housing starting price is €232 per month (indicative — confirm with the operator). Higher‑end residences in the area often exceed that. If cost is your primary concern, you may need to compare with other options.
- Students looking for a party‑oriented social life – While the residence has communal spaces, reviews centre on comfort and safety rather than nightlife. Getafe itself is a residential city; major night‑life spots are in central Madrid.
- Students who need flexible move‑in dates – The listed availability is 29 March 2026. If your academic year starts earlier (e.g., September 2025) or you need a room before that date, this property may not be ready.
What residents actually say
All quoted reviews come from Google, as recorded on the platform. Here are three verbatim excerpts:
-
Jemag 2731 (5/5):
“Staying at XIOR Student Housing has been one of the highlights of my academic year. The building is modern, secure, and very well located (one of the best neighborhoods in Madrid). The rooms are bright, comfortable, and equipped with everything a student could ask for. What really stood out to me, though, was the atmos” -
Beck D (5/5):
“I stayed at the Xior for a semester and I couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay in Madrid! Unbeatable location and very friendly people always willing to help. I’d definitely be back for another semester if I could.” -
Anas Sadqane (5/5):
“My daughter lives has been living at this residence for about 8 months now and she absolutely loves it. We were originally hesitant for our daughter to go abroad. However, XIOR has an amazing staff and they reassured us. The residence is really well located and it was relatively easy for us to get to her when we visite”
These reviews emphasise the quality of the building, the helpful staff, and the convenience of the location — though note that the first and third quotes are truncated. The overall sentiment is strongly positive, with all three reviewers giving five stars.
Price positioning and room‑type guidance
The platform does not display a specific price range for HAB 28004. As a reference, the lowest monthly rent for any student property in Getafe is €232 (indicative — confirm with the operator). This property likely sits above that entry‑level price given its high rating, modern facilities, and reviews. A deposit of €50 is listed (indicative), but the total cost per month and any additional fees (e.g., utilities, cleaning) must be confirmed directly with the operator.
There is no breakdown of available room types in the source data. Based on similar XIOR properties in Madrid, one can expect a mix of single studios and shared apartments, possibly with en‑suite or private bathroom options. To know exactly what rooms are on offer — and their exact prices — contact the operator or check the listing page for updates.
When comparing prices, remember that Getafe is generally cheaper than central Madrid. If you are willing to commute, you may get a larger or more modern room for a lower rent than a comparable place in the city centre.
Booking timing
The indicated availability start date is 29 March 2026. If you plan to move in for the 2026‑2027 academic year (which typically begins in September 2026 in Spain), this property could be available from late March 2026 for a long‑term lease extending into the next academic year. However, the minimum lease length is not specified, so it is advisable to ask whether a contract starting in March can run through the following summer.
Given the high rating and strong demand (232 reviews averaging 4.8), early booking is recommended. Students aiming for a September 2026 move‑in should start inquiring at least 3–4 months in advance, especially if they require a specific room type or a long‑term lease.
Can I book for the 2026‑2027 academic year?
Yes, you can. The earliest move‑in date listed is 29 March 2026, so a contract starting in September 2026 should be possible, but you will need to confirm the exact lease terms with the operator. Some student residences offer 12‑month contracts that begin in September and end the following August. Contact the property manager to see if March‑start contracts can be extended to cover the full academic year.
Is a deposit required, and how much is it?
The platform shows a deposit of €50 (indicative — confirm with the operator). This is a relatively low deposit compared to many student accommodations, but verify the exact amount and any conditions (e.g., refund policy, damage deductions) before signing.
What facilities are included?
The listing tags indicate a community space, a dining room, and a laundry facility. These are communal amenities. Individual rooms likely come with basic furniture, a private bathroom, and a kitchenette (typical for XIOR residences), but this is not confirmed by the source data. Contact the operator for a full list of what is included in the rent.
