5 ways an extended stay hotel can sweeten a less-than-ideal living situation
Let’s face it—sometimes finding a home away from home is more of a necessity than a to-do on your vacation wish list. From unexpected home renovations to out-of-town business, plenty of occasions call for a convenient, comfortable place to live in a pinch.
When life gives you lemons or a lengthy work trip, check out these five reasons why you should consider choosing an extended stay at WoodSpring Suites® hotels over a traditional hotel or resort.
The longer you stay, the more you save
A sudden need for housing isn’t a planned expense, so finding a money-savvy stay can make all the difference in a tricky situation.
Extended stay hotels can save you a bundle by offering discounted rates for weekly or monthly stays. That means you can avoid weekend night price hikes and extra fees that often come with a traditional resort’s amenities. And if you’re traveling on business, lower rates could give you wiggle room for other expenses—like a well-deserved dinner out.
Park for free with easy access to your car
While a resort’s valet service can feel like a luxury, those daily fees can add up quickly. An extended stay hotel welcomes you to park on the property at no cost. When it comes time to hop in the car, you don’t need to wait for someone to find your keys and drive it to you. Just stroll to your parking spot, and you’re ready to go.
Whip up tasty and affordable home-cooked meals in complete, in-suite kitchen
Dining out has its perks, but making your own meals is a must if you’re on a budget or want to maintain a healthy routine. With an extended stay hotel, you don’t have to rely on a lone microwave or pricey hotel restaurants and cafes. Instead, you can stock groceries and cook your favorite recipes with an in-suite kitchen that includes a refrigerator, stovetop, and plenty of cabinets and counter space. Want a kitchen sneak peek?

Enjoy apartment living without the up charge
Weeks-long stints outside the home can leave you missing the “little things” you love, like Sundays in your living room with your favorite game day eats.
If you choose an extended stay, you don’t have to forego the rituals you treasure at home. Your suite’s spacious layout will come with a cozy apartment feel that invites you to unpack, kick back, and snack like you do at home—even on game day.
Bring your sidekick along with you
It’s always a good day when your pet can hang by your side—and needing a temporary place to live shouldn’t change any of this.
Not every traditional hotel and resort has a strict no-pets policy, but the joy of bringing your fur baby often comes with a sky-high pet fee. Since extended stay hotels accommodate long-term guests, most understand that welcoming your four-legged plus-one is an important part of a great hotel experience. That means your pet, their favorite toys, and bed can join you in your roomy suite.
Discover your home-away-from-home
When life gives you lemons, you’ve got options. And while a traditional hotel or resort can make a fantastic launchpad for a dream vacation, it may not offer the essentials and affordability you need when you’re making the best of a tough situation.
WoodSpring Suites Extended Stay Hotels specializes in bringing a silver lining to these “life happens” moments. Stay on a budget with deeply discounted rates for longer stays and stretch out in a breezy suite that includes what you love most about home, from your cozy kitchen to your furry best friend.
