BERCEO offers its students a wide range of Spanish accommodation options. Whichever you pick, you may rest assured that it has been chosen only after having passed our demanding selection procedures. The options are as follows:

Lodging with Spanish families:
This is the best way of both practising the Spanish language and becoming familiar with Spanish customs and habits. Families chosen by Academia BERCEO have been selected with the greatest care, live in the city center and their accommodation enjoys all modern conveniences, and you will be welcomed as another member of the family.

• Students may choose either a shared double room -H.D.- or single room -H.I.-, and opt for either full board -P.C.- (three meals a day) or half board -M.P.- (breakfast and lunch).
• We carefully evaluate the information you give us in the "remarks" on the application form and try to find a family which fulfills the needs of the students. It is important to know if you smoke or if cigarette smoke bothers you, if you like small children or domestic animals, if you have an allergy or illness, or if you need a special diet. The family is responsible for the cleanliness of the room. The student must bring towels for his or her own personal use.

Apartments:
One option is to share an apartment with other students. One can choose a single -H.I.- or double room -H.D.-. The apartments have all the necessary comforts and all include heating, kitchen and washing machine. It is not necessary to bring sheets or blankets; only towels and personal belongings.

• Types A: These apartments are situated about ten to twenty minutes away from the center of the town. Their price varies depending on whether they have a television, telephone, dining-room, sitting room, etc.
• Type B: These apartments are in the center of the city and have all facilities.
• Note: If anything special is required, please mention it on the application form under "remarks"

Countries of the European Union: if you are a citizen of a member country of the E.U. you will not have to pay the cost of medical treatment but you will have to pay prescription fees.

Other countries: if you do not belong to a member country of the European Union or if your country does not have a reciprocal agreement with Spain, how much you pay is up to the doctor's discretion. You may have your own insurance scheme or, if you wish, the Institute can provide you with insurance for medical consultations. Even so, if you intend to spend a long time in Spain we advise you to take out fully comprehensive insurance in your own country.
