When you start talking about hotel condo residences that are shells you start getting into apartment territory as far as I am concerned.
range or cooktop? they wouldnt let you install new in-counter appliances would they?

you keep saying hotel, and i am pointing out the options include units that are not in inventory.

in inventory, there are still more options than you seem to be recognizing.

i agree with you re decor, below the billionaire level. at that level, top bookable accommodations, anywhere from $5K to $50K, hotels are pretty willing to do things. i cant make generalizations below that level for short term.

but as i mentioned, there are condohotels (or coop in NY) where there is no min lease, and some owners do not buy furniture package or use hotel rental program, preferring to rent themselves. this would include unfurnished units they would like to rent long term. but one might be able to negotiate shorter stays. i dont know much about rental furniture, but one could also buy/sell, or have someone (maybe even hotel real estate company - for a fee) handle that for them.
