Corporate Housing vs Extended Stay – Really?

They tell me people who stay in extended stay hotels only need a place for less than 7 days and people who stay in Corporate Housing need a place for a month or more.  On a recent trip to Dallas I made my business associate join me in a high-end, brand name, extended stay for one night.  Wow, we were glad it was only one night.  First of all it was $199 a night (most Corporate Housing is less than $100 a night ).  Second, we wouldn’t even take off our socks because the carpet was so dirty.  Third, the safety lock on the door looked liked it had been kicked in.  I would not have felt comfortable staying here by myself.  The free breakfast was not worth it.

Please do the Corporate Housing vs Extended Stay test – my experience says you will choose the Corporate Housing option.
