Student apartments for rent in Pontevedra

Many international students who move to live their Erasmus experience in Pontevedra seek to rent entire apartments. If you want to have all the apartment space to yourself, a studio apartment would be your ideal accommodation, since you will not have to share the common areas or the bathroom. On the other hand, you can also rent a flat with other rooms to share with friends or other young people. This option is usually the most chosen since it allows you to save on rental costs and utility bills, as well as share the experience more closely with other students who are in the same situation as you.

The available flats are generally furnished and have basic appliances, such as a refrigerator, oven, washing machine, and microwave. However, it is always advisable to pay attention to the characteristics of each apartment, to be able to choose the one that includes all those that are important to you.
