Why Guests Love Self Check-In (And How to Use It)
2025-06-09
When you arrive in a new city, the last thing you want is a delay at check-in, especially after a long flight, train ride, or busy day of sightseeing. That’s where self-check-in comes in, and it’s quickly becoming a guest favourite. At Statera Apartments, we offer hassle-free self-check-in at many of our serviced apartments to make your arrival as smooth as possible.
Here’s why guests love it and exactly how it works.
1. Check In on Your Own Time
No need to coordinate with a host or wait around for someone to hand over keys. With self-check-in, you decide when to arrive, whether it’s 3:00 p.m. on the dot or 11:00 p.m. after a late dinner.
Benefits:
- Flexible arrival times
- No stress if your flight is delayed
- Ideal for early birds and night owls
2. Simple, Secure Access
Our properties typically use smart locks, key safes, or lockboxes, giving you secure access via a code or key retrieval point. All entry instructions are provided clearly before your stay begins.
How it works:
- You’ll receive check-in instructions via email or text before arrival
- These include your unique code, location of the lockbox (if applicable), and step-by-step instructions (with a video walkthrough and/or photos)
- Once inside, your keys are waiting or you may use the code throughout your stay
Tip: Keep the check-in message handy when travelling, and save the code offline in case you need it.
3. Ideal for Business & Solo Travellers
Whether you’re arriving for a morning meeting or flying in for a last-minute work trip, self-check-in is a lifesaver for guests with unpredictable schedules.
No need to adjust your day around someone else's availability. Just show up and settle in.
4. Skip the Small Talk, Start Your Stay
Some guests love to meet hosts. Others just want to get in, drop their bags, and decompress, especially after long travel.
Self-check-in gives you the freedom to start your stay on your terms, with:
- No waiting around
- No awkward delays
- No need to coordinate arrival times
You get all the information you need upfront, plus support on standby if you ever need help.
5. It’s Just… Easy
Our guests tell us time and again how much they appreciate the convenience and independence of self-check-in. It sets the tone for a smooth, stress-free stay.
Need Help? We’ve Got You
While self-check-in is designed to be seamless, we know travel doesn’t always go as planned. If you ever have trouble finding the entrance, using the code, or unlocking the door, our guest support team is just a call or message away.
Stay Your Way, From the Moment You Arrive
Self-check-in is more than a trend, it’s a better way to travel. At Statera Apartments, we’ve designed our check-in process to be secure, smooth, and guest-friendly, giving you more time to enjoy your stay from the very start.
