Is Blueground Good for Business Travel?

Is this you? ›
By Rachel Julian, Editor-in-Chief · · 3 min read

What Blueground commits to a business traveler in writing, scored on the Apartment-Stay Index — workspace, kitchen, care, corporate booking, value.

Direct answer: Blueground scores 87/100 on the Apartment-Stay Index — rank #1 of 8, above the field average of 68. It commits, in writing, most strongly on care & service and booking & billing and value & pricing. The score reflects published commitments only, not any single property’s execution. Furnished-with-workspace as a stated standard and the exact unit you saw — the month-long onsite's strongest paper.

The read

Furnished-with-workspace as a stated standard and the exact unit you saw — the month-long onsite's strongest paper.

A score is the floor Blueground will put its name to — what you can plan on before you book. It does not grade the execution at any one property on the night; use it to set expectations, then verify the specific location.
