Perhaps, if a person has not rented an apartment for a short period, he does not know anything about the daily rent of apartments. Market today daily rent It is quite developed and it is not difficult to get information about this, including you can see the obvious differences between renting a hotel room and an apartment rented out for daily rent.
Before you go on a trip, you need to carefully check everything, think it over, find out so as not to get into a mess. Of course, some tourists prefer to stay at a hotel. Such living has its positive aspects as well. Let's talk about them:
1. For a woman, staying in a hotel gives an opportunity to take a break from everyday problems and pay more attention to herself, her appearance, while relaxing in bars, restaurants, cafes, or by visiting a beauty salon.
2. The advantage of staying in a hotel is the presence of security both at the main entrance and on each hotel floor. In addition, cameras are installed in the premises of the building to ensure the safety of guests.
3. Availability of business centers in some hotels, providing the opportunity to use various computers, as well as high-quality Internet, which is very convenient for business trips, businessmen and just active people who like to spend a lot of time on the World Wide Web.
4. In addition, large hotels are provided for active rest and maintaining the body in a healthy form beauty salon, fitness club, entertainment centers, clubs, shops.
In addition to some of the advantages of staying in a hotel, there are also disadvantages:
1. Wherever you go, you always come across strangers studying you and often wanting to make acquaintance with you. For a person who prefers to relax in solitude, calmness and silence, as well as for guests staying at the hotel confidentially, strangers and communication with them are completely undesirable and create unnecessary inconveniences.
2. Another disadvantage of hotel accommodation is high price rooms and lack of free places in most cases. Why is there such a discrepancy? Newcomers go to the hotel, because they do not know other places where else they can settle down. For this reason, finding a free room in hotel buildings is not easy. What is the conclusion? Definitely, such issues need to be resolved in advance, even before the trip.
3. You can also add to the above-described disadvantages of hotel accommodation the inconvenience that residents experience if they need to drink coffee, tea or simply have a snack during the day with sandwiches. After all, there are no household appliances in hotel rooms. In addition to its absence, the hotel administration strictly prohibits storing food in the rooms and eating food.
4. Probably each of us, while staying at a hotel, experienced problems associated with visiting guests. It has always been in hotels, is and will be! You cannot be visited after twenty-three hours, as well as your friends and acquaintances who do not have a passport with them, in no case will the security be allowed to pass.
What is the difference between short-term accommodation rented apartment from a hotel or hotel?
1. In a rented apartment, the owners change less often, so the tenants do not feel as if they are in the state atmosphere.
2. Each homeowner is his own designer, so the interior of the apartment is always different from the hotel interior and provides its residents with comfort, as well as a sense of home.
3. In a rented apartment there is always an opportunity to cook food, brew tea, coffee. In addition to the advantages of having an equipped kitchen, residents have the opportunity to listen to music loudly and watch TV. Of course, you can walk on your head, but do not forget about the neighbors and the responsibility for violating public order after twenty-three hours. Otherwise, you can get acquainted with the guardians of the law and receive a fine. Unwanted neighbors with ears and eyes, as well as a desire to talk, are everywhere, but living in a rented apartment makes it possible to maintain confidentiality, due to the fact that you don't have to see your neighbors.
4. The advantage of renting a daily apartment, in contrast to a hotel or a hotel, is also in the possibility of free visiting of guests without any restrictions in time, their number, the frequency of visits made to you and documents in your pocket. The main thing is that the neighbors do not complain!
5. Apartments for daily rent are located in different parts the city, while hotel buildings are located mainly in the central part of it. Thanks to this difference, a visiting tourist can always choose a convenient microdistrict for living, without getting hung up on the central part of the city.
6. One of the main distinctive advantages of apartments rented by the day is enough of them. low price compared to paying for a hotel room. Please note that the daily payment for a rented apartment is set regardless of the number of people living with you.
7. The daily rented apartment has a private bathroom, all the furniture and household appliances necessary for living, while in inexpensive hotel rooms for guests there is a shower on the floor, in the room there is a bed, a table and a bedside table.
Highlighting the disadvantages of rental housing for daily rent, you need to stay at a low level of security due to the lack of equipment in all houses with intercoms, plastic windows, and metal doors. In addition, concierges do not sit everywhere. The disadvantage of daily rented housing is that in most cases it is impossible to deliver vehicles near the rented apartment. In contrast, the territory of hotels is equipped for this purpose with a specially designated place - parking or parking.
Many people going on a tourist trip or just visiting friends in another city are worried about which is better: a hotel or an apartment for rent, where is it more convenient and cheaper to stay for a while? Let's weigh the pros and cons in favor of a suitable option.
Rent a hotel for rent: pros and cons
So, let's consider the advantages of hotel accommodation, in comparison with temporary accommodation with a private owner:
- safety and security of personal belongings - hotels are guarded and monitored;
- availability of special places for daily parking;
- no worries about cooking - there are cafes and restaurants in hotels;
- equipping hotel rooms with amenities: coziness, comfort and order, followed by the hotel staff, trouble-free Internet connection in the room;
- a wide range of services (breakfast in the room, etc.)
- business centers with a stationary computer and high-speed Internet required for a business trip;
- lovers of outdoor activities - fitness and entertainment centers, beauty salons - who want to put themselves in order.
The disadvantage of hotels is the frequent intersection with strangers living in the same building. But you can choose to rent a room in a mini-hotel. Some are expensive and the quality of service does not always meet the customer's expectations. Therefore, you need to carefully choose a place to stay for daily rent, based on reviews.
Pros and cons of renting an apartment for rent
Will an apartment or room be more profitable? Daily rent of an apartment is a good choice for those who want to save money. You can rent a one-room apartment for several people, the number of places does not affect the cost. Another advantage is that you can choose a convenient area for temporary residence.
But the comfort and order in the apartment will have to be maintained independently. And this is not the main drawback. Other negative points:
- lack of high security in apartments, the owners are not responsible for the safety of things;
- difficulty with parking, especially if the house is located in the city center.
- It is profitable for apartment owners to rent a place not for a day, but for a long time. Therefore, finding a suitable home for a short period is difficult. It is easier to find a hotel for a day to live. Alternatively, rent an apartment.
Going on a trip for work or leisure, it is better to choose accommodation with amenities and quality service. If you are in Moscow, book a room at the Key Element Hotel: prices are optimal, comfort is high. You can find out the full information on the website.
Hello, my name is Alexey and I have not lived in hotels for 4 years. Unless only in extreme cases, when there is no choice or the inviting party provides it. Arriving in any city, I just rent a cool apartment in the very center and go for a walk. But this was not the case before.
I was looking for a hotel in the heart of the city, went nuts on the price of the room per night and booked a dormitory of 8 sq.m. on the outskirts. And this continued until I started renting apartments for rent. She slept one, then another. And then there was no stopping me. Four years of exciting trips flew by as one in rented apartments. I had a lot of them and they were all different: beautiful, scary, with large rooms and small, new, old, on the first floor, on the last, in Arzamas, in Nizhny, in Kazan, in Budapest, in Tbilisi, in Yaroslavl, in Vologda, in Moscow, in Perm, in Minsk, in Brest, in Ryazan, in Prague, in Budva, in Arkhangelsk, in Yoshkar-Ola and other cities, the names of which I don’t even remember.
Even 4 years ago, I had only one, but persistent association with an apartment for rent - a gadyushnik. I must say right away that in some cases, this, unfortunately, is the case. If you rent an apartment according to an advertisement in a newspaper or at a bus stop, then in 90% of cases you will remove a gadyushnik. To avoid this and generally stop being afraid of rented apartments, I will tell you how to do it correctly. And why apartments are better and more profitable than hotels.
1. Room area
The first reason why you should prefer a daily apartment to a hotel is the living space. For the same price, in the case of a hotel, you will receive a one-room suite that can fit a couple of beds, bedside tables, a table and a TV. A whole apartment with two and three rooms is different! Regardless of the number of beds, the apartment is fully rented. If you want space - shoot "three rubles" and run on it. Traveling with a large company - shoot a three-ruble note and sit all night at one large table in the kitchen!
2. Price
The cost of housing is directly related to its capacity. Probably all of you are aware of the difference in prices for single, double, triple and quadruple rooms in hotels. The last two types are rarely found in free form and your large company or family is offered to split into free "kopeck pieces" and "odnushki", which can significantly hit your wallet. The cost of renting a large apartment does not differ much from the cost of a small one. From my own experience, average price spacious and comfortable "kopeck piece" for 4-6 beds in Russia jumps around 2000-3000 rubles per day. Dividing this by the number of residents, we get 500 rubles per person.
500 rubles is the lowest price per bed in seedy hotels like these:
And everywhere this magic figure is 500 rubles per bed-night. Russian tariff, however. For example, here are the hotels in the same Nizhny Novgorod.
For comparison, I will give several apartments for the same price:
One-bedroom apartment on Tverskaya street, 5A v Nizhny Novgorod... For 2550 rubles per day. 4 sleeping places.
One-bedroom apartment at 6 Volkova Street in Yaroslavl. For 1900 rubles a day. 4 sleeping places.
3. Location
As I wrote before, I like to stay as close to the city center as possible. When I come to another city, I'm usually very tired by car. After a long road, you want to run out from behind the wheel, lock it and no longer approach it until the morning. After that, walk to the river or the sea, sit with light alcohol in a cafe and then crawl to bed half asleep. Hotels in this location usually have big, beautiful names and cost a lot of money. And from hotels in a more modest way to the city center you will already have to get to public transport... Taxi, of course, is also an option, but why?
Why, if there are a lot of apartments for rent in the city center? People specifically buy apartments in the center not to live in them, smelling exhaust gases and listening to the "roar of the cosmodrome", but to rent them out. For the same 2-3 thousand, you can rent a wonderful apartment on the top floor of a high-rise building, with a wonderful view of the river, mountains, park or sea. For example, as in Naberezhnye Chelny (albeit not quite the center).
4. Choice
How many hotels can there be in a city? On average, a couple dozen. In a small one - one or two. And there are hundreds of apartments. There is always a choice. One is busy - the other is free. I didn’t like one - we chose another. Using special services for renting apartments, you can generally choose apartments on the city map, given the proximity to the sea, a river, a promenade, a pub or a monument to Lenin.
How larger city, the more offers for daily rent of apartments, the higher the competition, the more adequate and stable prices. Paradox, but in a large and beautiful city, where there is something to see, the prices for apartments are lower than in the half-living Russian outback. For example, in Vyazma, apparently, there is only one landlord who owns all 5 rented apartments presented on the Sutochno.ru service :) Accordingly, low quality and high cost.
But what kind of two-room apartment we rented last year in Perm for 2,000 rubles:
We were even photographed for the section "Our Dear Guests" :)
5. Living environment
I have not met a single hotel with a washing machine and iron in the room. If you need to wash, order a laundry service for a fee. In many daily apartments it is normal to have a complete set of household appliances: washers, hair dryers, irons, boards, microwave ovens, huge refrigerators, ovens, hobs, air condos. In one fancy three-room apartment in Minsk, at Skryganova Street, 4B, in each of the three rooms there was one large LCD panel, and a fourth flat TV was hanging in the kitchen. Too bad the bathroom was not there. Otherwise, it would be convenient to watch from the hydromassage. We paid 3,500 rubles for it and celebrated the birthday of our youngest traveler :)
In a small and medium budget hotel, at best, there will be a TV, hairdryer and a small refrigerator.
6. Immersion in the atmosphere and local flavor
Living in a city in a hotel is like swimming in seaside resort in the pool, two steps away from the sea. Want to sniff real life a new city for you, find out what the locals breathe and what they eat - rent an apartment in a residential area. Walk to the local "Magnet", stock up on local beer, local sausage, sour cream, milk, taste fresh local pastries. Oh, what a wonderful and cheap oil in Vologda! In Ulyanovsk it is 3 times more expensive and we don't buy it here. In Prague, right under the apartment there was a shop with absinthe, in Arzamas there was a New Year tree in the courtyard and residents played a round dance there, in Ryazan from the window you could see the railway station, past which I drove a hundred times on the Ulyanovsk-Moscow route, in Tbilisi there was the classic courtyard of the old city with linens and curious neighbors, and in Livadia there was a garage under the apartment where I parked my car. An indescribable delight in the taste of local life! From the very first turn of the key in the keyhole, you start to feel like a local resident :)
2-room apartment in Minsk on Yesenina, 16. For 2100 rubles per day. A perfect example of perfection rented apartment and the responsiveness of the hostess.
7. Nutrition
Renting an apartment can save a lot on food by buying groceries at the nearest supermarket and preparing your own food on the stove.
1-room apartment in Smolensk on Normandy-Neman street, 7A. For 1800 rubles per day for 4 guests.
2-room apartment in Minsk on Yesenina, 16. For 2100 rubles per day.
8. Nice little things
Some apartment owners have already started to adopt some of the usual things for hotels. For example, a minibar in the refrigerator. You check in late at night and you don't have to run anywhere for beer and chips - everything is on the shelves. Disposable slippers and hygiene kits are nothing new.
"Full minced meat" in the bathroom of an apartment in Nizhny Novgorod, for 3000 rubles. per day.
Or towels figuratively laid on the bed. A trifle, but nice.
One-bedroom apartment with a living room in Vologda, on Leningradskaya, 136. For 3000 rubles. per day.
How cool everything is! Tomorrow we will leave for the sea and now we will only stay in apartments!
But don't rush ... There are a couple of little things you should be prepared for:
Disadvantages and nuances
1. The first one, from which there is no escape - cleaning... More precisely, its absence. In a daily rented apartment, they are usually cleaned 2 times: before your arrival and after. If you plan to stay in it for a long time, then the cleaning is yours. But, as a rule, such apartments do not live longer than a week, and most often - a day or two.
Bathrooms in Minsk and Nizhny Novgorod apartments for 2000 and 3000 rubles, respectively.
2. The second trifle is not a trifle at all, but a significant nuance that is quite common in Russia - bad faith of landlords... Especially Kazan.
It consists in the fact that having booked a kavrtira in advance, you do not get a guarantee that it is in it that you will move in. Kazan apartment owners are very fond of "please" you when they meet with the news that your apartment has not yet been vacated, but you will now be offered an equivalent or even the best way for the same price. And they bring them to a homeless man on the outskirts. This happened to me several times, and it was in Kazan. Even a full prepayment may not help.

How to deal with this?
The market for daily rent of apartments in Russia is slowly but surely becoming civilized. In this case, the educator is all kinds of services for the selection of apartments. You can choose and book an apartment abroad on airbnb.com, where both the tenant and the landlord try to maintain and enhance their reputation. Russia also has a similar service - Sutochno.ru... Its base includes about 80,000 apartments throughout Russia, neighboring countries and even Montenegro.
How does he work:
- Set the city and search filter by dates and number of residents.
- From the search results, using sorting by price, reviews or by map, choose an apartment.
- Read reviews of previous guests.
- Press the booking button, contact the owner on the site and make an advance payment, which remains with the service.
- You come to the apartment, check in and live.
- You are leaving without forgetting to leave a review on the website of the service for future travelers :)
- The prepayment is returned to you.
- The landlord receives a fine and negative review, which lowers him in the search.
- Sutochno.ru support helps you quickly find another option. I was in their office - there are always a lot of people on their phones.
One-bedroom apartment with a living room in Vologda, on Leningradskaya, 136. For 3000 rubles. per day.
And one more rule that should be observed when using such services for daily rent of apartments: never contact the landlord directly, bypassing the service. Otherwise, if you are thrown, then no one will help you. Maintain the history of correspondence and transfer the prepayment through the service, which will act as a third party in the dispute. If the landlord does not respond to the booking request for a long time, just forget about this apartment and do not call the landlord by direct phone. There is a high probability that such an owner will provide you with another apartment of a worse quality upon arrival and you will not prove anything. And always read the reviews :)
Enjoy your travels and beautiful apartments!
Many people who come to another city have a question about where they can change over for a couple of days. Some people prefer not to bother, but just go to the nearest hotel and rent a room. Others, on the contrary, prefer to rent an apartment for a day in a hotel. Each of these options, of course, has its own positive and negative sides... Therefore, in order to understand what is better, a hotel room or an apartment for a day, it is worth considering the most obvious pros and cons of both options.
The benefits of staying in a hotel room.
1. Some people prefer to shoot hotel rooms only because it gives the settler a solid status. Especially if a person chooses a very expensive hotel or hotel. So, if you want to describe yourself as a serious and respectable person, then a hotel for a day will be the best choice.
2. In respectable hotels, clients are offered comfortable living conditions, for example, such as a swimming pool, a luxurious restaurant, entertainment clubs, gyms, etc. However, it may not be affordable for an ordinary person to stay in such a hotel. Such a luxury, even for one day, can be afforded to wealthy persons.
3. Any hotel is equipped with a security system, which includes, in particular, video surveillance. For some, the reliability of living in a room is a priority, but for others, on the contrary, being in front of observers is considered completely uncomfortable. In any case, in modern hotels there is always security, an access system and reliable security systems.
4. The same must be said about the fact that advanced hotel, which cares about its reputation and the comfort of its customers, has special centers where you can use a computer, the Internet and other similar services.
5. Also, when checking into a hotel, a person will no longer need to think about where to eat deliciously. After all, any hotel has its own kitchen with professional chefs. So, restaurants and cafes are an integral part of a modern hotel.
A few words about the disadvantages of checking into a hotel room.
1. The most important drawback, perhaps, is the rather high cost of rooms in hotels, and often they simply may not be enough. We have to go and look for a hotel where we could finally rent a room for a day. Some do it trickier - in advance. However, not everyone has such an opportunity. So, sometimes, renting an apartment for a day is more profitable financially and much faster.
2. It cannot be said that in a hotel a person will be able to retire and receive the expected confidentiality. After all, this is, in fact, in addition to a personal number, a public place (hall, restaurant, etc.), so there will always be a huge number of strangers.
3. If the room is planned to be rented for the purpose of conducting business negotiations, then some difficulties may arise here, since it will be extremely problematic to arrange a meeting at a high level with snacks or even tea.
4. Each hotel has its own rules, therefore there are restrictions that apply to the guests of the hotel client - they can stay in the room, as a rule, no longer than 23 hours. Moreover, since the hotels have a pass system, not a single guest will be allowed in until his identity (passport, driver's license and other similar documents) is verified.
5. The rooms do not have the required number of household appliances that may be needed at any time (washing machine, stove, etc.). The hotel guest has to solve these questions independently.
The advantages of renting an apartment by the day.
1. Affordability of housing. Now a huge number of companies in a matter of minutes will help to find a person exactly here an apartment that will suit him in terms of location, number of rooms, price issue, etc. that is, the choice of rental housing is enormous.
2. Renting an apartment for a day is much cheaper than renting a hotel room. Cost savings.
3. You can feel much more comfortable in an apartment than in a standard one. hotel room... There is everything for a normal stay: home appliances, telephone, internet and other amenities.
4. A person who has settled in a rented apartment can receive guests at any time without any restrictions. Such a room will not work in a hotel.
5. You can choose any apartment for rent in any convenient area of the city.
Disadvantages of renting an apartment for a day.
1. Renting an apartment does not have the same security system as a hotel. Although, of course, there are houses equipped with video surveillance. However, the cost of renting in guarded houses will be higher.
2. In rented housing you have to serve yourself on your own: cooking, cleaning, etc.
3. If a visiting guest has a car, then it will be extremely problematic to find parking nearby the rented apartment, while each hotel has its own personal parking.
