What Is a Per Diem, Anyway?

A per diem is your daily allowance for meals, lodging, and incidentals like parking or laundry. Your company may reimburse it or pay it out upfront—but either way, you're responsible for how you spend it.

The good news? Smart choices can stretch it further.

Hotels vs. Furnished Apartments in Sioux City

Most people default to hotels for convenience—but that convenience comes at a cost.

A typical hotel stay for 30 days = $3,900+

Stay SOMNI? $2,600–$3,100—and you’ll save even more with longer stays.

Why Kitchens Matter (and Save You Serious Cash)

Your meal per diem might be around $69/day—but if you’re eating out for every meal, that goes fast:

Breakfast: $9

Lunch: $15

Dinner: $25

Snacks, drinks: $10

Total: $59+ per day = $1,770/month

With a fully equipped kitchen, many of our guests cut that number in half:

Cook your own eggs, bacon, coffee

Pack leftovers or make a sandwich

Prep hearty meals in the evening

Total: ~$13/day = ~$400/month

More savings. Better meals. Way more comfort.
