My first week back in Virginia, I stayed at the Renaissance Marriott Hotel. It was a nice hotel on the water with city views. I actually ended up moving into a high-rise condo next door. I was initially not that interested in moving into the condo because I prefer living somewhere where I can park right in front of my home. However, once I toured the condo, it was an immediate yes. I am on the 23rd floor and have views after views. The unit is also very spacious, sometimes I wonder if it’s a bit too spacious. But I guess I shouldn’t complain that my food pantry is meant for a family of 6.
The amenities are great too. There is a gym, pool, tennis court, pool table room, and walking trail on the water. There is a concierge and valet parking if desired.
Before moving into the condo, furniture was delivered and cable/internet was set up. I was able to pick up my keys on Friday after work. I moved in the following Saturday (the agency kept the hotel for me overnight).
I love sharing my current housing situation while on assignment, because many of my readers worry about living full time in a hotel or traveling with their family and not being accommodated. I just wanted to show that many times the housing arrangement exceeds expectations.
This is so awesome. Since this is my 1st assignment, I worried about continuing on because I miss my home life but this post just made it clear.
What kind of housing are you provided with?
