You have two options, one that will drive towards your new room spending a lot of money and a lot of time, and the other one, will drive towards to your new room in 4 clicks and with all the security that SwifFlats offers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OPTION A:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>You arrive in Bilbao and you do not have a house yet<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, so you decide to stay for a week in the cheapest hostel you can find: This in Bilbao has a price of \u00a014\u20ac per night in low season, which total <\/span><b>\u00a098\u20ac for the whole week<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> . There you must share the room with 7 other people and the hostel does not have a kitchen, so you have \u00a0to go out to eat every day or try to eat in the hostel common room.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The average price of the daily menu in Bilbao is between \u00a010\u20ac-15\u20ac, so eating out every day, costs between<\/span><b> 140\u20ac and 210\u20ac, without including \u00a0the cost of breakfast.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> At this point we have already <\/span><b>spent a total of between 238\u20ac and 308\u20ac<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, there is the <\/span><b>search of the fla<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">t, you have read several Internet pages to find the last options to live. This pretty much makes you a<\/span><b> 4h online every day during 7 days<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During these 4 hours, let&#8217;s say that half of \u00a0your time you will spend calling to the landlords, to see if the flat that has already been seen and that can be visited is available. <\/span><b>Here it is not only the cost of calls, but the handicap that the landlord has no English and you can not communicate well with him.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> So they spent many hours trying to talk to all kinds of people, landlordswho did not accept students and people who did not have the rental agreement. In addition to many landlords who do not rent the apartment by rooms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now you have the part of your tour through Bilbao to visit all the flats that you have decided are worth seeing. Let&#8217;s say that this process is 3 hours between trips by public transport (prices are<\/span><b> 91 cents metro<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> per section in an area, <\/span><b>73 cents tram<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>65 cents bu<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">s), see the different flats, etc. So there are now <\/span><b>7 hours online and offline<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Bilbao for public transport, Barik is used, which costs \u00a03\u20ac and you insert money in blocks of 5-10-15-20 and 50\u20ac. With an estimate of<\/span><b> 5 trips per day<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (only to see flats), in the week they are <\/span><b>just over 30\u20ac.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Making all these calculations<\/span><b> the estimated price to find a flat \/ room<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in Bilbao calculating money and time is:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>&#8211; 366-436\u20ac in 7 days (62.28\u20ac per day)<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>&#8211; 49h total weekly online and offline (7h each day)<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand we have <\/span><b>&#8220;THE B OPTION &#8220;<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and it consists of that before going to Bilbao look for your room or flat in www.swiftflats.com.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OPTION B:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Simply enter the website www.swiftflats.com, and investing <\/span><b>only 4 hours per day<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> from your home, not only you can find an apartment with the facility of 4 clicks, also <\/span><b>\u00a0with the basic package of \u00a0125\u20ac \u00a0you get a safe rent, coverage medical *, civil liability *, online assistance to help you at any time with the apartment during the entire stay and the contract with the owner of the apartment.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We should not say more than with <\/span><b>&#8220;OPTION B&#8221;<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, we not only save a lot of money, \u00a0we also save time and we can have that <\/span><b>extra peace of mind that everything is controlled<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
