Find a flatmate in Valencia: Matching with people, Listings of rooms

Goodbye Mama gives you two sections to find your home in Valencia: Matching — profiles of people looking for a compatible flatmate in shared accommodation — and Listings — the catalogue of available rooms. Use both together to make the best decision. What sets Goodbye Mama apart from Badi or Spotahome: you see the person behind the flat, not just the listing.

Valencia is the most affordable major city for shared flats in Spain. Rooms start from €280 in university-heavy neighbourhoods like Benimaclet. That affordability means the flat-search process is less frantic than in Madrid or Barcelona — there is more time to find the right match.

Buscar una habitación en Valencia no va solo de encontrar algo disponible. También va de elegir una zona que encaje contigo, una habitación cómoda y un piso compartido con un ambiente que tenga sentido para tu ritmo de vida. Valencia ofrece muchísimas opciones, pero no todas sirven para lo mismo. Hay barrios con más vida social, otros más prácticos para estudiar o trabajar y otros que ayudan a equilibrar mejor precio, conexión y comodidad.

How it works

Step 1 — Complete your living profile

8 dimensions: schedule, tidiness, noise, social attitude, guests, smoking, drinking, and pets. 5 minutes.

Step 2 — See compatible people searching in Valencia

In the Matching section you see profiles ranked by living compatibility, not by photo.

Step 3 — Connect and search from two angles

From Matching, you connect with compatible people to search for a flat together or join an existing one. From Listings, you see available rooms in Valencia. Use both sections to decide which option fits best.

Preguntas frecuentes sobre Valencia

How do I find a flat and a flatmate on Goodbye Mama?

Goodbye Mama has two sections. In Matching you see profiles of people looking for a compatible flatmate in Valencia — you can contact them to search for a flat together. In Listings you see the catalogue of available rooms. You use both sections together to find the best option for you.

Is Valencia a good option for Erasmus students?

Yes. Valencia has the second-largest Erasmus community in Spain after Madrid. The University of Valencia (UV) and the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) both run large Erasmus programmes. Benimaclet and El Carmen are the most Erasmus-heavy neighbourhoods.

Is the flatmate pool in Valencia as large as in Madrid?

No — Valencia is a smaller market. But the platform notifies you when new compatible profiles appear rather than showing you irrelevant results. The Erasmus and student intake seasonality (September and February) creates clear peaks of new users.

What if I already have a room and need a flatmate?

That's a different use case — go to [List your room in Valencia](/en/list-room-valencia). This page is for people who need both a flat and a flatmate.

Is there any cost?

No. Profile, matching, and contact are entirely free.
