Having personally worked away from home for many years staying
in both guest houses and hotels it was clear that there must be a better way for longer stays. Most rooms I stayed
in were less than 20 sqm2 with no area to work, perched on the end of the bed or in bed to watch tv. Having to use dial-up
(so slow) or pay for an internet connection (not cheap) to collect my emails. I also found that I had to continually
pack and unpack as I returned home at week-ends. It would have been great if I could have left personal belongings until I
returned.
A half decent hotel can cost anything from £80 upwards per
night. Surprisingly a luxury apartment per sqm2 is a fraction of the cost in comparison.
Don't get me wrong hotels have their advantages with additional
facilities like a bar and restaurant, which has its appeal. But personally I would have preferred to come home from work
and just chill by watching tv with a good selection of channels or watch a DVD and eat when and what
I fancied.
I have lost count of how many times colleagues / friends working
away wanted to have something simple like egg or beans on toast, I suppose eating off the same menu every night
does become repetitive.
Due to the pokey size of the room I wanted to spend as much
time out of the room as possible and the most convenient location was the bar, although it sounds great every night it was
not ideal (especially with work in the morning).
If I was staying for more than a week and I had been given
the choice between a hotel and a serviced apartment I know which one I would choose - hence the reason for setting up tickabox
properties.
So if staying for less than a week I would suggest a hotel would be better but for longer periods a Serviced Apartment
would be my choice.
