If you have planned a visit to an unfamiliar city, and there were no acquaintances ready to shelter you, you are faced with a serious problem. Where can you live for a day, a week, or even a month, and even in comfortable conditions?
There is always a way out! Even if you find yourself at the station with things and children late in the evening, having no idea where to check in. Verified personally!
In Russia, the service of providing travelers with apartments for rent is widespread. For those who come to a foreign city for a short time, this option may seem much more convenient than checking into a hotel with state-owned rooms and strict rules. You come to a separate apartment, from which you are given the keys, you can safely live there the time you need, cook food at any time of the day and bring guests, that is, observe your usual way of life, without depending on anyone.
It is worth a lot to find yourself in a cozy, well-equipped, fully equipped apartment after a difficult flight. In all senses. The cost of renting an apartment is really high: from a thousand rubles a day for a one-room apartment on the outskirts to infinity. It all depends on several factors: the location of the apartment (proximity to the center, exit from the metro station, stop, shops, etc.), its size (one, two, three rooms or more), interior furnishings (decoration of rooms, availability of household appliances, Internet, cable TV, etc.), the general level of prices in the city. You can get a discount if you rent an apartment for a long term (several weeks).
In addition, the price includes the following services: calling repair services if necessary, changing bed linen once a week, cleaning the premises by an employee of the company that provides you with an apartment for rent. If you need temporary registration in a rented apartment, this can also be done. However, the service depends on each specific company, but the general standards usually correspond to the above rules.
How to rent an apartment for daily rent with minimal loss of time and money? If you are looking for accommodation in another city in advance, at the stage of planning a trip, go to the Internet, to sites with ads related to the selected city. Consider offers, ask the price, find out who is the leader in this market. Call the selected agencies and arrange your check-in at the specified time. If you do this a few days before your arrival, you will have more choice of apartments, since you can book what you need and be sure that the right accommodation is already waiting for you in an unfamiliar place. If you are already at your destination, buy local newspapers with advertisements or open your laptop to find phone numbers of the respective companies. A few calls - and you will definitely be settled somewhere, even if a conference is taking place in the city and an influx of tourists, and it is almost night outside.
It is good if the company provides you with a taxi or an accompanying person. Otherwise, call a taxi at the numbers indicated in the same newspaper (try to avoid the services of taxi drivers on duty at train stations and airports - it is much more expensive) and go to the indicated address. Agents will meet you, show you the apartment, tell you the rules of living in it and ask you to sign a contract. Then you can finally relax and explore the city. And try when looking for an apartment to avoid the services of companies that take money before moving into an apartment and only for the selection of the desired option. And never pledge your documents. You will lose a lot of time and money, but the result is not guaranteed.
