Does anyone have informations or any comments about ' EASO residencias de estudiante ' in Madrid area Gran Via, Callao, Puerta del Sol and Opera. What is the neighborhood like around there?
That's possible I can stay there for 3 months and I would be thankful about informations before I do a reservation.
Thanks a lot, Susa

susa, a number of people have asked about EASO: Residencias de Estudiantes in the past but we haven't seen any feedback on it yet. I did a pretty complete search but haven't found any firsthand reviews yet. If you stay here would you please be our first? Thanks!

Saludos, MadridMan

Hi there! I have found this University of Essex link that has a word or two on Easo residences in Madrid under Accomodation #4. It actually is a trove of information for foreign students going to study in Madrid. Hey, it even has a good word on Madridman

Good luck in your search.

Thank you for your anwers - but I'm still waiting for the reservation confirmation. I need a lot of good luck because 11 residencias I asked for are full. If I can stay there I will send a feedback - promissed!
And the Madrid area Gran Via, Callao, Puerta del Sol and Opera. What is the neighborhood like around there? Are they in safe areas for a young girl?

Have a great time in Spain - you'll love it

You'll find that Madrid is a safe city generally speaking. Don't be apprehensive at all, it's a lovely city to relax in. Plaza Mayor is a major landmark near the Sol metro. The Royal Palace and the Opera are landmarks near the Opera metro. I don't know Callao. It's a lovely busy, bustling city. A lot safer than most major cities in North America. Madrilenos are very present in Madrid's daily downtown life. Just have your wits about you in Sol as there is a tendancy for pickpockets to work the crowds there. Same in the metro. Stay away from parks at night. Otherwise, just enjoy it!

Hi,

I used to live in EASO and it was wonderful. I studied at Complutense for a while and lived in the Callao residencia throughout my stay. Elena the owner is lovely, and the rooms are really nice. If you want some more info on them then please just email me
