Lodging is handled separately from registration. The most convenient choices for participants are to stay at the University residence in campus, at a hotel in Getafe (within walking distance of workshop) or at a hotel in Madrid (with a daily commute of around 30' either way).

The University residence in campus:

The organization has arranged for the participants the possibility to stay at the residence Fernando de los Ríos, operated for Universidad Carlos III and located at the conference campus. This residence is within a few minutes walk from both the conference venue and the downtown's shops and cafés. Its cost is lower than that of a hotel, while its equipment is standard.
