Why do contractors prefer serviced Accommodation (SA)?
Price – A serviced apartment has affordable options for any of their choices. Whether it is for a short term or long term stay; a serviced apartment is the cheapest option available for them.
Flexibility – It is equipped with essential amenities such as microwaves, refrigerators and washing machines which means the contractors save money instead of paying extra at the hotel services. Think about all the money they can save if they cook their own food instead of eating out every day.
Location – The closest hotels to the sites are usually miles away from the actual job location, especially if the site is in a small, industrial town. Serviced apartments are almost everywhere.
Staying in a serviced apartment gives you the room to work, cook, relax and sleep and on average you can expect to enjoy 30% more space than an equivalent standard of hotel. A typical one bedroom service apartment is around twice the size of the average hotel room.
The above are all serviced apartments under the umbrella of Serviced Accomodation (SA), but sometimes SA can also be a room with either en-suite or shared facilities and use of a shared kitchen. This also works for contractors as prices are cheaper and they have the option to cook their own meals. In this scenario the property is cleaned daily as with a hotel.
So all in all SA works well giving contractors more choice, flexibility and a better price.
