The Advantages of Furnished Corporate Housing

TravelerFor travelers that are on the road, whether for work or pleasure, the cost of a hotel room can be quite the financial burden. According to Statista.com, the average daily rate for a hotel in 2016 runs $126.73. People traveling for extended periods of time may prefer corporate housing over a hotel, because hotels just don’t feel like home.
Now you may be wondering, “What is corporate housing and is it a better option for me during my time away?” Depending on the situation, it may be. Corporate housing offers all inclusive fully furnished apartments, ideal for those looking for a bit more space and a 30+ night stay. Most include furniture, housewares, linens, utilities, basic cable, internet and local phone service.

Like the name suggests, corporate apartments are generally used by employees and contractors of large companies and corporations that travel for work. People tend to find themselves more comfortable and “at home” since they can cook, relax in a bigger space and utilize the amenities the community offers. Though primarily used by business travelers, corporate apartments also appeal to people who are relocating to a new area and may be looking to purchase a home but need time to find the right one. They also appeal to vacationers, college students, military personnel and others in need of a short-term furnished apartment.
Amenities found in corporate housing are comparable to those of a luxury hotel. A fitness center, resort-style swimming pool and hot tub, covered parking and housekeeping services are just a few amenities that corporate housing may offer its residents. Many of the ​apartment ​communities are found close to shopping, restaurants and the city centers for the convenience of ​their residents.
Because of the accommodation and short-term lease options, corporate apartments are ​generally more expensive than unfurnished apartments with a 12-month lease. However, it’s still more cost-efficient than a hotel since you get so many more perks and amenities for less.family with pets
People traveling with pets or children will likely find corporate housing apartments a more suitable option than a hotel. Hotels may offer suites but they ​usually ​do not offer the space that a family of four may want or need.
