It could happen for any reason. Maybe there was a natural disaster that impacted your home, or perhaps something occurred such as having your roof fail. In any case, if your home is uninhabitable for the foreseeable future, then you're likely looking for a place to stay that will suit both you and your wallet. Here's why you should consider staying at an extended stay hotel property.
Feels Like Home
One of the best features of an extended stay property is that they feel more like a home than they do a hotel.
The vast majority of extended stay properties do this by having rooms that are closer to what you would expect from a small apartment rather than a hotel. Instead of just having beds and a sink, you can expect to have a couch, potentially multiple rooms, and of course, a small kitchen. These amenities will have you feeling more like you've just relocated to a new home rather than being cooped up in your average hotel.
Saves Money
Extended stay properties can save you money in a few different ways. Here's a look at a couple of them.
The first way you'll save money is by selecting an extended stay property to begin with. These properties are designed for people to stay for long stretches of time, so they tend to reduce their rates the longer that you stay with them. This means that even if it takes a month or more for your home to be repaired, you won't be paying an arm and a leg in order to stay somewhere nice.
Secondly, the inclusion of a kitchen in your temporary home means that you can do all the cooking that you would at home, which will save you a lot of money versus ordering take-out all the time. Most kitchens are equipped with everything you need to cook, like utensils and pots and pans, so you don't even need to bring anything from your home while it's being repaired.
Extended Stay
Lastly, extended stay hotels tend to have different rules than standard hotels when it comes to how long you stay. Some hotels limit your stay to 30 days or less, but given the nature of an extended stay hotel, most of them don't impose limits. So, while it's ideal that your home get repaired as quickly as possible, if there are circumstances that make it take longer than a month, you can likely spend the entire time at your extended temporary housing without any concerns.
