Every listing on Spotahome is verified before publication: photos, descriptions and amenities are reviewed for accuracy. If the apartment doesn't match the listing on the day you arrive, report it within the first 24 hours and our team will help with mediation, relocation or alternative solutions.
The deposit is typically one to two months of rent and is held by the landlord. On listings tagged "Deposit protected", Spotahome refunds you directly if the landlord doesn't return the deposit within three months of your move-out and you've complied with the contract. There are also many deposit-free listings that you can filter in the search.
No guarantor is required. You only need a valid ID or passport, proof of student or worker status, and a payment method. Once the landlord accepts the booking, they may ask for proof of income and a direct debit authorisation to finalise the contract.
The monthly rent on Spotahome always includes rent, IBI property tax and community fees. Utilities such as electricity, water, gas and Wi-Fi are included in a large share of listings but vary by property.
