Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if I’ve already booked my room, but my visa has been denied or I’ve not been granted a place at university?

If you have not obtained the necessary visa or you have been denied a place at the university, Property will cancel your reservation free of charge, but you will need to provide them with proof of this. In the case of the visa, proof that the visa has been denied and in the case of the denied spot, you will have to prove that you are going to study in another province other than the province of the residence where you had the reservation.
These conditions apply to cancellations that occur before the contract has started; in no case can people who want to cancel and have already started their contract with PMG take advantage of these conditions.

How far in advance do I need to book my room?

The best thing to do is to make your reservation as soon as possible so that you can choose the room category you want. They don’t have a month limit for you to make your reservation, you can make it when it suits you best. But keep in mind that prices are subject to change, so be careful not to miss out!

– A visa in case you need to live in Spain.
– A letter of confirmation of enrollment or acceptance from the university or school you will be attending. At check-in they will ask you for proof of payment of tuition fees.
– A passport photo of yourself.
– The contract signed by you if you are over 18 years old, or if you are a minor, it must be signed by your parents or legal guardians.
– A signed document approving the direct debit of bills by the account holder (only if paying by direct debit).
