One of the first decisions an intended visitor to Odessa has to make is whether to stay in a hotel or an apartment. The traditional view of Ukrainian hotels is of the Soviet type…… …..Dull, drab and dreary. Whilst this type still exists there is now a greater choice, with more Western style hotels in evidence (charging Western prices) to serve the towns increased prosperity. These are largely independent operators as the major international chains such as Hilton, Sheraton, Radisson; Holiday Inn etc do not yet have a presence in Odessa. (The capital Kiev does have a posh new Hyatt and a Radisson). Very often in Odessa the choice of hotel rests between an expensive **** option and a cheap Soviet type offering very basic facilities (e.g. it may lack adequate heating or hot water). It can be very difficult to find something in between the two i.e. safe comfortable accommodation at a reasonable price. This is why renting an apartment from OdessaRentaFlat makes sense.

Listed below are some of the advantages of renting an apartment with OdessaRentaFlat.

SAFETY AND SECURITY

The OdessaRentaFlat complex of apartments is located right in the centre of town on Rishelyevskaya St near the junction with Bunina St. This means that all of Odessa’s amenities are right on your doorstep. So you can be reassured that even late at night, you will feel safe and secure as the area is very well lit. Entrance to the building is by coded combination.
Finally each apartment has its own personal safe allowing you to set your own combination.

WESTERN STANDARTS OF COMFORT

Modern draught-proof PVC windows have replaced the old wooden type. The fully-tiled bathrooms have their own independent Hot Water supply. Kitchens are fully stocked with all cooking utensils. The large double beds have imported bed-linens. The 300 plus Satellite TV channels include CNN and BBC World. In addition there is a Hi-Fi Music System and DVD Player in all apartments.

PERSONAL COMPUTERS WITH FREE HIGH SPEED INTERNET

Guests staying with ORF do not have to visit a business center or internet cafe to check email as each apartment has its own computer programmed in English. To connect to the internet the user simply switches on the computer. There is no download limit and this facility is offered free of charge.

PRIVACY GUARANTEED

The added advantage of staying in an apartment is that it offers clients the extra privacy not afforded by an Odessa Hotel. Also there is no additional tariff for inviting a guest back to the apartment.

FREE AIRPORT TRANSFER

Perhaps on arrival at Odessa Airport you might choose to hire a taxi to take you to the center of town. So you make your way to the orderly Taxi Rank and take the first in the queue.

Well it may work like that in most other European cities but not in Odessa it doesn’t. What is likely to happen is that, as you emerge into the Arrivals Hall you will be mobbed by a hoard of drivers offering to take you into town for an inflated price.

The civilized alternative is that Odessarentaflat will have an English speaking member of staff wait for you, holding a sign bearing your name, to then take you to your rental apartment. This is a free service offered to our guests. See Services page for details.

ADVANCE SHOPPING REQUEST

As part of ORF client commitment we provide our ASR service. This offers the guest the option of having the fridge in the apartment stocked prior to arrival thereby saving you the inconvenience of having to visit the local supermarket after your arrival. Full details are available on the Services page.

DVD LIBRARY

ORF guests wishing watch a DVD in the apartment need not go to the local store to buy or rent, as we offer the option to borrow DVDs from our own extensive library.

PRICE ADVANTAGE

Last but not least is price. Staying in an apartment offers significant savings over the costs of staying in an Odessa Hotel. Typically you can save upwards of 50% on daily tariffs offered by Odessa Hotels.
