    Hi All,

    First time doing a major remodel of the home and was wondering where people stay when they can't stay in their own homes? I'm near Santa Monica so if anyone has any leads to nice, inexpensive places to stay for a month, please let me know.

    Thanks,

    Manny

    1) Camp out at Darth's or

    2) Call a few RV dealers in your area and ask them to rent you a 19-25' travel trailer that has not sold in 2-4 months. Ask them to deliver and rent it to you during the remodel. I would bet if you call 8-10 dealers, you'll find one that will work a deal out.

    Maybe an extended stay? Aren't they about $400 a week? Aside from that, around Pacific Palisades Park in a corrugated box like the rest of them ;) Santa Monica home of the homeless :) Hey, just kidding....

    My fiance would like to find a place with a kitchenette if at all possible.

    I don't know if you're joking or serious.

    I've checked extended stays. Average about $75/night, still over $2K/month. Maybe that's the going rate.

    Thanks Darth. A bit pricier than the extended stays.

    Anyways, thanks everyone.

    There is a Days Inn on Santa Monica Blvd (near 30th).

    Hotel Carmel on 2nd St and Braodway is cheap too.

    I'd love to take a trip to Japan. Her mother loves me. :)

    Can't do it until the government says it's OK for my fiance to travel outside the US.

    I do have an uncle in S. Pasadena. But I'm not looking forward to that commute.
