Hotel-style apartment is an apartment that provides hotel-style management services, which integrates multiple functions of residence, hotel and club, but its essence is still an apartment. Hotel-style apartment not only absorbs the service function and management mode of star-rated hotels, but also absorbs the characteristics of office buildings in the information age. What are the advantages and disadvantages of serviced apartments? Is it suitable for self-occupation?

1. What are the advantages and disadvantages of serviced apartments?

The advantages of serviced apartments are mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1, the total price is low. Hotel-style apartments are mainly small units with an area of about 50㎡. Due to the low total price, many people are attracted by the rental return and are eager for it. In the past two years, the sales of serviced apartment projects in coastal areas have become more and more popular.

2. Flexible spatial division. Because many serviced apartment projects take work as the main consideration in product design, they have greater flexibility in space division than traditional apartments. The innovation of architectural design and the comprehensive application of engineering technology also give this kind of property more room to play. As a result, there have been projects with free division and random units in the market, ranging from 20-30m2 to the first floor 1000㎡. So this kind of project is not only suitable for small companies, but also suitable for some medium-sized companies.

3. Good living and business environment. Many serviced apartments are put forward in advertisements, such as? Pick up the suitcase and check in? 、? All-round family nanny property management? Waiting for attractive slogans. Different from ordinary apartments, serviced apartments are relatively smooth in providing these property and housekeeping services. As long as you want, basically hotel management companies can do it.

The shortcomings of serviced apartments are mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1. For serviced apartments, the provident fund is useless, and the down payment needs to reach 50%, while ordinary houses can use provident fund loans. Although the hotel-style apartment is small in area and low in total price, if you need to buy a house, you can't borrow the full amount from the provident fund but only commercial loans, and the down payment must be as high as 50%. This undoubtedly violates the original intention of buying a serviced apartment, and the result is that it looks cheap, but in fact it is more stressful.

2. Insufficient lighting in the walkway is likely to cause potential safety hazards, and the apartment type of ordinary houses is relatively bright. Due to the limitation of point-type high-rise buildings, those rebuilt small-sized hotel-style apartments are often lined with residents on both sides of a long corridor in the middle, or there are elevators in the middle, surrounded by a circle of small-sized apartments, forming the plane layout of the whole floor, and this layout often makes the walkway have no natural lighting or insufficient lighting, so it lacks a sense of space recognition and orientation.

Second, is the serviced apartment suitable for self-occupation?

At present, serviced apartments are not suitable for self-occupation.

1, some serviced apartments are irregular, with low occupancy rate and many hidden bathrooms, which affect the living comfort; Within the control range of technical indicators, developers choose the design principle of profit, so they divide more units in a limited space, which leads to less consideration of the practicality of life in the design of small units, and its pattern is closer to family hotels.

From a practical point of view, a large number of people get on and off the elevator every day after work, so it is extremely inconvenient to wait. From the point of view of appreciation, the increase of windows takes up more external walls and destroys the original regular building facade. In terms of security, the increase in the number of households in the standard floor has caused an imbalance in the living population; If an elevator is installed, it will cause hidden dangers to the construction. In terms of services, it is difficult to keep up with the service package because of the limitation of floor area ratio.

These are the advantages and disadvantages of serviced apartments. Whether it is suitable for self-occupation Compared with commercial housing, whether it is service life or living atmosphere, commercial housing is definitely more suitable for self-occupation. However, in the current market, the advantage of serviced apartments is that they are not limited to purchase, and the total price of small apartments is low. For young people, it is also a good choice to buy serviced apartments as a transition period for self-occupation.
