5 Things To Consider Before Booking Your Next Short Let Apartment

Short‐let Apartments are steadily grabbing a significant market share in the Hotels & Hospitality Industry in Nigeria, according to the data extracted from a popular real estate website Privateproperty.ng, There are an estimated 1500+ Short‐let Apartments in Lagos, Nigeria. It’s a fact that most guests prefer the homely feeling and the luxurious ambience these apartments are giving compared to hotels and typical guest house lodges. 1.  Ambience & Aesthetics An apartment with an exquisite ambience and a welcoming aura is our foremost priority when suggesting a suitable apartment for your short stay. The property structure, interior design and components make up the overall mood of the apartment, since the majority of the time lodged–in as a guest would be spent in the living room and the bedroom depending on the nature of the stay. An apartment with a pool or a lovely garden should be prioritized if it's a party. If its a romantic getaway or a honeymoon, a secluded apartment tucked in a private estate or a beach house located on an island somewhere in Ilashe or Takwa Bay would be a perfect destination for the stay, imagine waking up to a lovely beach view or the serenity and breeze of the seaside away from the noisy hustle and bustle of the metro.  2. Amenities  The amenities provided by the Short‐let apartments such as a swimming pool, gym, indoor games, in-house chef and laundry should also be considered when selecting an apartment, a basic apartment with no quality and fun amenities would leave the guest bored and the experience might not really end up being a memorable one.   3. Proximity to an attraction centre or an event You’re attending If you’re booking a short-let apartment to pass the night after an event or after visiting a popular destination then you should consider the proximity. No one deserves to be caught up in the typical Lagos traffic that could make you spend 3 hours for a 15 minutes journey, so it's always better to choose an apartment very close to an attraction center or event center you intend to visit, this goes for international tours and trips as well, as a traveller, its always advisable to spend the night in apartments close to or within the destination you’re visiting to save yourself from the navigation hassle.  4. Safety and Location Research is an essential factor to consider while selecting a short-let apartment is the level of security in the house and the environment in the apartment is located, that is why we advise our clients at Agent247 to always conduct a physical inspection each time they’re about to book an apartment before paying. 5. Prices of similar apartments within the same location Sometimes, hosts overprice their apartments due to the popularity the apartment have garnered over time or due to the newness of the apartment, its necessary to contact multiple hosts within the same location, this enables you to have a range of options to choose from when hosts realize you’re checking out multiple apartments they could consider giving you a discount so as not to lose a customer, so if your options are limited to one, you’ll be left with no choice than to book the apartment regardless of the price, you can find a wide range of short let apartment to book in Lagos on Agent247.ng
