You’re headed to a new city for a business trip, and you’re already dreading the idea of living out of your suitcase for 30-plus days. You imagine yourself dealing with a tiny room, shoddy facilities, and no kitchen. However, in the modern rental market, going on a business trip doesn’t mean that you have to forego the comforts you enjoy at home, according to a recently published article. In the article, Brian Ferdinand, the managing partner of CorpHousing Group, shares how corporate housing can add a homier touch to the business travel experience.
What You Get with a Corporate Housing Unit
According to Ferdinand in the recently published article, corporate housing units offer clear advantages over hotels and apartments. Whether you are traveling with other individuals or by yourself, hotel stays can be pricey, and apartments generally offer only yearlong leases. However, corporate housing can be rented for several weeks at a time and at a cheaper price than what hotels may charge you.
Corporate housing units also come fully furnished, and the furnishings are usually selected with both décor and your comfort in mind. In your corporate housing unit, you can expect to find all of the cookware, flatware, housewares, towels, and linens you’ll need. That means you can easily cook for yourself and thus eat well. In addition, you can generally find flat-screen television sets along with comfortable sofa beds in case you need them.
In a corporate housing unit, you can also find all of your important utilities, wireless Internet, security system, and cable television already activated for you. On top of this, the company that manages your corporate housing unit can work with you to accommodate your special needs, whether you need a baby crib or a specially designed furniture arrangement that is more ergonomically friendly. In other words, you don’t have to do much legwork to make your “home away from home” user friendly: the company will take care of all of this for you.
Customer Service Expectations
When you rent a corporate housing unit, you may be pleasantly surprised by the high level of customer service you receive. For instance, the company that oversees your unit should handle both the leasing complexities you face and your regular unit maintenance. All in all, you can rest assured that the company will make sure that your temporary stay will be high quality and comfortable from beginning to end.
