I’ve found lots of instances of people doing it for 1 night but not multiple nights.

Any thoughts on that one?

Thanks

I did this several years ago. As long as you check in (physically at the hotel), there is no problem. You may want to mention to the front desk that you may not be there the whole time, so housekeeping does not question why the room has not been used. I checked out by calling the hotel from my cell phone, so I did not have to return.
