Explanation of terminology related to furnished apartments, corporate housing, and extended stay in Longview WA, near Kelso WA.
Near I-5 freeway, between Portland OR and Olympia WA.
Unfurnished apartments are available for 11+ months stay. Furnished apartments (extended stay AKA corporate housing) are available for 1+ month(s) stay.
Some vendors require that you work for a large company. Those vendors will not rent to an individual or small business. This is common at 3+ star hotels that offer extended stay (corporate housing). We don't have that requirement. Private individuals and small, medium, and large businesses are welcome at Longview Corporate Housing. Any qualified applicant may rent from us. We require a background and credit check (paid for by applicant).
Hotels-motels offer 1+ day(s) stay (higher price plus hotel tax). Extended stay (corporate housing) typically offers 1+ month(s) stay (with lower price and no hotel tax). Unfurnished apartments typically offer 11+ months stay. Furnished apartments can be 1+ month(s) like extended stay, or 11+ month(s) like unfurnished apartments, depending on vendor. Lodging/housing for 12+ months stay is a lease (whether furnished or not). These categories of housing and lengths of stay are based on WA state laws for taxes and contract law.
At Longview Corporate Housing (LHC), we configured our furnished apartments the same as extended stay AKA corporate housing.
We offer 1+ month(s) stay in extended stay apartments (corporate housing) aka fully furnished apartments. 1+ month(s) is typical for extended stay though some vendors require 3+ month(s) stay. We also offer unfurnished apartments for 11+ months stay.
Our extended stay units are typically larger (700 to 1000 sq ft) and better furnished than a hotel room, and we cost less than a hotel. Two weeks in a local hotel typically costs the same as 4 weeks in our extended stay apartments.
Furnished housing includes all furniture and standard appliances. The term "furnished housing" is vague because it doesn't describe the setting (hotel, apartment, condo, house) and it doesn't describe the length of stay, nor the level of furnishings. i.e. - just furniture; or furniture, linens, cookware, and dishware? How about kitchen and bathroom supplies? Furnished housing is a vague term that would include all categories of furnished housing.
Furnished Apartments refers to an apartment that includes the furniture. It generally does not include other items (linens, cookware, dishware, kitchen and bathroom soap and other cleaning supplies, vacuum, iron, alarm clock, and more).
At LCH, we don't just offer furnished apartments. We offer fully furnished apartments for extended stay (that includes everything needed for extended stay AKA corporate housing) in a high-end apartment setting. When we say we offer "furnished apartments" we really mean we offer "extended stay apartments" (corporate housing in apartments).
Extended stay is furnished housing that includes appliances, furniture, cookware, dishes, silverware and dinnerware; kitchen soap and scrubbers, bathroom soap; linens; iron and ironing board, vacuum, alarm clock, and free Internet access. Extended stay housing can be located in any suitable location (such as a hotel rooms, apartments, condominiums, or single family homes). It's usually most affordable in an apartment. We have several locations in apartments offering extended stay in Longview WA, near Kelso WA.
