Benefits of a serviced apartment over a 6-month tenancy

Do you need to book a long but temporary hassle-free stay in your own self-contained apartment?  One alternative might be to rent an apartment under an Assured Short-hold Tenancy Agreement.  On the other hand, why not consider a serviced apartment instead, especially if your employer is footing the bill?

So what is a serviced apartment?  Well, as the title suggests, it is an apartment with services similar to hotels.   However, serviced apartments are quite different to hotels.  Let me explain.

Firstly serviced apartments offer significantly more space than hotel rooms, typically 2.5 times more space.

The nightly rate is all-inclusive of bills, including free super fast fibre broadband and the ultimate Sky bundle with sports and movies.  Private parking is also complimentary.

There is a weekly maid service which involves a complete cleaning of the apartment and a change of bed linen and towels.

The accommodation is fully self-contained with a fully equipped kitchen including full-sized appliances; a dishwasher and a washing machine, fridge, microwave, all crockery and cutlery, bathroom(s), bedroom(s), en-suites and a living room.

There are no contracts to sign.

No deposits to pay.

Flexible notice periods of 7 days to either cancel or amend the length of stay.  Not tied in.   If the contract ends early, you will not have to pay for days you will not stay.

24-hour emergency contact with ShortstayMK personnel.

Email contact with ShortstayMK office staff 7 days per week, so there is always someone to assist.

No hassle of setting up with utility companies, water companies, the Council and broadband, as these services are all included in the nightly rental rate.

ShortstayMK staff arrange for all minor and major maintenance work to be carried out on your property, leaving you more time.

Quick, easy and secure payment method, ShortstayMK send you or the company an invoice to cover every 28 nights of your stay and will receive a full invoice with VAT detailed for you to reclaim your expenses.

So what are you waiting for?  If you would like to stay in one of our apartments or houses, do contact us and ask for a quote.  You know it makes sense.
