About The Residential Club
What is The Residential Club?
The Residential Club is a residential club designed exclusively for professionals. Our residences combine private and communal spaces where you can get to know a community of people just like you. It’s more than just a place to live!
What do the facilities at The Residential Club include?
Our rooms and flats are fully equipped and furnished. You’ll find everything you need to move straight in (furniture, fully equipped kitchens, etc.). You’ll also have access to all the communal areas of the hall of residence.
What sort of events can I attend?
As part of the community, with any of our membership options you’ll have access to events organised by The Residential Club, such as after-work get-togethers, sports tournaments, wine tastings, our Summer or Christmas Party, festivals, activities around the city, and much more!
Who lives at The Residential Club?
Our members are mainly professionals aged between 25 and 35 who want to meet like-minded people with whom they can share common interests and grow both personally and professionally. We maintain a balanced ratio of men to women, and our community comprises 40 per cent local members and 60 per cent international members.
Membership and prices
Is there a charge for membership?
Yes, this payment will be required when you book your chosen stay and sign the contract, and the amount will depend on the membership you choose.
What is TRC Membership?
Our memberships give you the opportunity to become part of The Residential Club community.
We currently offer three types of membership to suit our customers’ needs.
- Community Membership: A membership designed for those who wish to be part of the TRC community without necessarily living in one of our residences. A temporary 6-month option offering access to events, activities, sports facilities, special offers and discounts across the city.
- TRC Membership: Annual membership with all the benefits and full access to the TRC experience and its residences.
- Corporate Membership: Designed for companies wishing to offer their employees accommodation and additional benefits, with simplified and personalised management.
What is the difference between the monthly fee and the membership fee?
- Membership: Gives you access to the TRC community, exclusive events, discounts and priority when changing spaces.
- Monthly rent: This is the payment for the room or flat, which includes service and maintenance charges.
What is the monthly fee?
The monthly price depends on the location and the type of room, studio or flat. You’ll find full pricing details on each residence’s page.
What payment options are available?
You can pay by card or by direct debit (SEPA).
What costs are included in the price?
The monthly price includes:
- Electricity, water, gas and internet supplies.
- Maintenance and insurance.
- Cleaning of communal areas and spaces.
There are other additional services, such as private cleaning or product packs, which can be requested at an extra cost.
Entry and residence procedures
Can I change my place of residence or room after I’ve signed the contract?
Yes, provided there is availability and the terms of your contract are met. Members who live with us have priority thanks to the ‘Priority Line’.
What is the process for moving in with you?
- Apply to live with us here
- Our admissions department will review your profile and, if you are eligible, we will send you information on the availability of our places so that you can book the one that best suits your needs.
- If you decide to proceed with the booking process, once you have completed it, a member of our team will contact you within 24 working hours to finalise the booking and send you the contracts.
- You will receive two contracts: one for your residential stay and another for your membership, which will allow you to join the club and enjoy all its benefits.
- Once the contracts have been signed, we will give you access to our app, where you can make the first three payments:
- Membership
- First monthly payment (pro-rated according to the number of days in the month)
- A deposit equivalent to one month’s rent.
Is it possible to view your properties before moving in?
Yes, virtually. We do not offer in-person viewings to protect our members’ privacy. To take the tour, you first need to apply for membership here and you will receive an email within the next few hours showing all our available rooms and flats, complete with photos and a virtual tour of the spaces.
Is there any sort of contract with a minimum term, or a penalty for leaving early?
If you decide to terminate the contract before the agreed date, you must give us 45 days’ notice. The whole process is carried out within our app under the ‘My stay’ section. There is no penalty as such, but there will be a rate adjustment based on how long you have been with us, as prices vary according to three time frames: [3–6 months], [6–11 months] and [12 months].
What is the minimum stay?
Our minimum stay is one month; however, the average stay for our members is around one year. Furthermore, we are flexible regarding check-in and check-out dates, so you can make a booking on any day of the month.
Life in the residence
Are there any specific rules of conduct I should be aware of?
Yes, we have rules in place to ensure a pleasant living environment. These include respect for shared spaces, quiet hours and a guest policy. You’ll find full details of these rules when you sign your contract, on the official TRC app and in person at the halls of residence.
Can you have visitors or put friends up temporarily?
Visitors are allowed, but they may not stay overnight without prior notice, nor may they exceed a limit of 7 days per month.
What is the difference between the monthly fee and the membership fee?
- Membership: Gives you access to the TRC community, exclusive events, discounts and priority when changing spaces.
- Monthly rent: This is the payment for the room or flat, which includes service and maintenance charges.
Are pets allowed?
Although we love animals, they are not permitted in our accommodation to ensure the comfort of all our tenants.
Can I move in with my partner?
Yes, you can come with your partner as we have studios and flats available.
Administrative aspects
Can I register as a resident if I live in your accommodation?
Registration is the responsibility of the local authority in each town and municipality. As a general rule, there are no problems, and we will provide you with all the necessary documentation for the application, but whether it is accepted depends on the local authority.
Can I claim a tax deduction for my TRC income on my tax return?
Unfortunately, the authorities have not regulated medium-term stays (co-living and flex-living) in this area, and this type of accommodation is not covered by the Urban Leases Act (LAU) but is governed by the Civil Code.
How long does it take for the security deposit to be refunded?
The deposit will be refunded within 30 to 60 working days, due to the administrative procedures required for each residence and type of contract.
