Overview and Location
Micampus Xaudaró 13 is a student residence located at 13, Fuencarral-El Pardo, 28034 Madrid, Spain. Although the city field in the listing is Getafe, the address places it in Madrid’s Fuencarral-El Pardo district, near the “Four Towers” business area. This location offers convenient access to restaurants and transport links, but it is not in the immediate vicinity of a university campus. The residence is set within a built-up residential and commercial zone, with hospitals and offices nearby.
The property provides two main room types: one-bedroom (1b) units and non-ensuite rooms. The non-ensuite rooms typically come with a private bedroom but shared bathroom and kitchen facilities, while the one-bedroom units likely include a private bathroom and kitchenette (confirm with the operator). The residence also features a study room and air conditioning, as listed in its tags.
Who This Residence Suits
Micampus Xaudaró 13 is best suited for students or young professionals who:
- Prioritise a quiet, clean room – Several reviewers noted the room was clean, warm, and free from street noise. One review (Anastasiia Grekova) stated: “Clean and cozy room, the only problem we had - long access codes to the door. But the rest was fine, they texted me on WhatsApp and mail, gave instructions, the room was clean and warm. Can recommend.”
- Prefer a location with dining options – The area around the Four Towers has many restaurants for breakfast and dinner, as mentioned by reviewer Lia.
- Are comfortable with a non-campus setting – The residence is about a 30–40 minute commute to central university districts (e.g., Ciudad Universitaria). If you are enrolled at a university near the Four Towers area or work in that business district, the location is practical.
- Need air conditioning – The property lists AC, which is valuable during Madrid’s hot summer months.
Who It Does Not Suit
On the other hand, the residence may be a poor fit for:
- Taller individuals – Reviewer Cath Royo complained: “TIGHT SPACE FOR 6FT TALL PEOPLE.” If you are over 180 cm, you may find the rooms cramped.
- Those expecting a fully equipped room – The same review noted “NO MINI FRIDGE/ICE MACHINE, NO CUPS OR COMPLIMENTARY COFFEE.” Non-ensuite units typically do not come with a private fridge or kitchenette; shared kitchen facilities are available. Confirm what is included in your specific room type.
- People sensitive to pest issues – The review mentioned ants. While this could be an isolated incident, it is worth noting.
- Anyone requiring reliable air conditioning in July – The review stated: “LITTLE TO NO A/C IN LATE JULY.” If you are booking for summer, check with the operator about AC performance.
- Budget-conscious students – The starting price of €933 per month is well above Getafe’s city-wide from-price of €232. Even considering that the address is in Madrid, the minimum price for a student room in Madrid is still lower. You will pay a premium for a private room in this residence.
What Residents Actually Say
The residence holds a Google rating of 3.2 out of 5 based on 111 reviews. The three provided reviews paint a mixed picture:
Positive points:
- “The location is very convenient, close to the ‘Four Towers’ area, which is beautiful and surrounded by many restaurants for breakfast and dinner. The room itself was clean and pleasant. During our stay, there was no street noise…” – Lia (3 stars)
- “Clean and cozy room… they texted me on WhatsApp and mail, gave instructions, the room was clean and warm. Can recommend.” – Anastasiia Grekova (4 stars)
Negative points:
- “THE ONLY REASON THIS PLACE IS OPEN IS BECAUSE OF THE HOSPITAL [ ] ILLEGAL PARKING JOCKEYS OUTSIDE [ ] LITTLE TO NO A/C IN LATE JULY [ ] TIGHT SPACE FOR 6FT TALL PEOPLE [ ] ANTS??????? [ ] NO MINI FRIDGE/ICE MACHINE [ ] NO CUPS OR COMPLIMENTARY COFFEE [ ] SHOWER FLOODING DUE TO POOR DESIGN [ ] HUSBAND SUFFERED WHILE ILL” – Cath Royo (1 star)
The overall low rating (3.2) and the critical review indicate significant issues with room conditions, maintenance, and amenities. However, some guests had a satisfactory experience. The variance depends heavily on the specific room and season.
Price and Value
The monthly rent for Micampus Xaudaró 13 ranges from €933 to €1,250 (indicative — confirm with the operator). This price is considerably higher than the lowest student accommodation price in the city of Getafe (€232 per month), and also above the average for Madrid student housing. The property’s tag includes “AC” but not laundry or gym; additional facilities may be minimal.
For comparison, in Getafe and Madrid you can find shared apartments or studio flats for €400–700 per month. Micampus Xaudaró 13’s pricing places it in the upper tier, likely due to its location in a newer building with a study room and proximity to the business district. However, given the negative reviews about small rooms, pests, and lack of basic amenities, the value proposition is not strong for budget-focused students.
If you are looking for a short-term stay (the listing shows available from 6 July 2026) and require a guaranteed private room in that specific area, the price might be acceptable. But for a full academic year, many alternatives offer better value.
Room Types and Booking Timing
The listing indicates two unit types: 1b (one-bedroom) and non_ensuite. Based on common terminology in student housing:
- Non-ensuite: A private bedroom with shared bathroom and kitchen (typically with other residents on the same floor). This is the cheaper option.
- 1b (one-bedroom): A self-contained unit with a private bedroom, private bathroom, and often a small kitchenette. This is likely the upper end of the price range (closer to €1,250).
Confirm with the operator which exact features are included in each room type, especially whether a mini-fridge and cooking utensils are provided.
Booking timing: The residence is available from 6 July 2026. If you intend to move in around that date, booking early (by early 2026) is advisable to secure your preferred room type. Given the negative reviews, you may want to request a virtual tour or check recent feedback before committing.

Is the residence close to any university campus?
