There are currently 27 extended stay chains in North America with at least 7 hotels, representing over 2,000 properties.<sup class="gmail-noprint gmail-Inline-Template gmail-Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap">[<i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

There is substantial variation among extended stay hotels with respect
to quality and the amenities available. Some of the economy chains
attract clientele who use the hotels as semi-permanent lodging.
Extended-stay hotels typically have self-serve laundry facilities and
offer discounts for extended stays, beginning at 5 or 7 days. They also
have guestrooms (or "suites") with kitchens. The kitchens include at a
minimum usually: a sink, a refrigerator (usually full size), a microwave
oven, and a stovetop. Some kitchens also have dishwashers and
conventional ovens. Extended stay hotels are aimed at business travelers
on extended assignments, families in the midst of a relocation, and
others in need of temporary housing."</div><div><br></div><div>-- Joseph Eisenberg<br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Dec 14, 2020 at 12:14 PM Paul Allen <<a href="mailto:pla16021@gmail.com">pla16021@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">On Mon, 14 Dec 2020 at 19:41, Jmapb <<a href="mailto:jmapb@gmx.com" target="_blank">jmapb@gmx.com</a>> wrote:<br><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><br>
At least In the rural USA, there's a continuum between motels that have<br>
an array of rentable rooms in one or two buildings and those where each<br>
room is an individual cabin, or sometimes half of a duplex cabin. It's<br>
common to see motels offering both styles of accommodation.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I don't think tourism=chalet fits that distributed motel cabin model.</div><div><br></div><div>I'd expect a motel to be set up to handle very short duration (one or two</div><div>day) at very short notice (turn up and ask for a room) and to offer</div><div>meals unless there are diners/restaurants nearby.
