The team

Meet the people behind GladStay.

GladStay is not a faceless rental platform. Behind every room there are real people managing viewings, move-ins, maintenance and day-to-day support.

  • Alessio Tondo

    Founder & CEO

    Alessio founded GladStay with a simple idea: renting a room in London should feel clear, safe and properly managed. He oversees the company’s standards, landlord relationships and long-term direction.

  • David

    Sales Manager

    David manages room viewings, tenant enquiries and the letting process. He helps tenants find the right room and makes sure every move-in is handled clearly, from first contact to keys.

  • Anita

    Operations Manager

    Anita keeps day-to-day operations running smoothly, from tenant support and admin to maintenance coordination. She makes sure issues are followed up and everything stays organised.

  • Fernanda

    Housekeeping

    Fernanda helps keep our homes clean, prepared and ready for new tenants, especially before move-ins and after room changes.

    Maintenance team

    Repairs & property care

    Our maintenance team takes care of repairs, room preparation and practical works across the properties, so every home stays functional, safe and properly looked after.

Why people choose GladStay

  • Verified and renovated rooms

    Every room is renovated before being rented. No improvised solutions, no “bed dropped in a corner” — just clean, functional and dignified spaces you can trust.

  • Fully furnished, ready to live

    Your room comes fully furnished with everything you need: bed, wardrobe, desk, chair and storage — so you can move in and feel at home from day one.

  • All bills included, no surprises

    Utilities, council tax and internet are all included. One clear monthly price, no unexpected costs and full transparency.

  • Real human support, 24/7

    If something breaks or you need help, you’re not left on your own. Our team is available 24/7 to support you throughout your stay.

  • Fair and accessible deposit

    We ask for just one month’s deposit, with the option to split it into two payments. Because access to housing should be fair, not stressful.

  • Shared living, not shared stress

    We actively support healthy co-living. Shared houses include clear rules, communication and optional WhatsApp groups — so people feel less alone and live better together.

How it works

Renting a room with GladStay is designed to be clear, structured and stress-free.

  1. Step 1

    Find a room & enquire

    Browse our available rooms and choose the one that fits your needs. Once you’ve found a suitable option, send an enquiry through the listing.

  2. Step 2

    Book a viewing

    Choose a time that works for you and you’ll receive a confirmation email with all the details. Booking a viewing does not reserve the room.

  3. Step 3

    Apply & reserve

    Pay a holding deposit (capped at one week’s rent) and complete the application form. Right to Rent and reference checks follow by email.

  4. Step 4

    Sign & move in

    Sign your tenancy agreement via DocuSign, pay the move-in balance, then collect your keys at check-in.
