I have an offer that I have accepted from Amazon. I can book a temporary accommodation for 45 days as per the policy - and was told that it should be a 3 star hotel, and not beyond.
My real question is - there are different types of rooms in the 3 star hotel I’m looking at. Does it mean that I can book the most expensive type of room, provided it’s a 3 star ?

How many business days after the last interview did you get the verbal offer?

4

3 star is basically a Hilton or Marriott. Don’t go overboard

Also; you shouldn’t want to. . .
If they hired the right person …
Your insight and behavior should lead you to being frugal.
They shouldn’t need to ask you to spend like it’s your money.
