Short stay apartment
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Short stay apartments are furnished self-contained apartments that are rented for short periods of time, usually days or weeks. They are seen as an alternative to hotels.[1] The apartment will vary from studio apartments to luxury apartments.
Short stay rental is an offshoot of the corporate housing market. The most common use is vacation rental,[1] and short stay rental is also used by people moving home.[2]
Short stay apartments might be 25-50% cheaper than a deluxe hotel room, and some apartments permit pets.[1] Credit checks may be conducted, and a deposit may be required.[1] Some renters have found that online photographs and descriptions were misleading.[3]
