Would you ask your landlord to pay for a hotel /airBnB while your rental is being renovated? The work is on my balcony and building exterior, and it's so loud my kid can't hear her zoom classes and I can't WFH! Today I called the construction Co and they said they'll be at it 4-8 more weeks.

Are you renovating or is the building renovating? If it’s your renovation they obviously won’t even consider it. Even if the landlord is renovating, unless it’s unliveable they prob won’t agree to it. I feel for you though - my building did a massive brick pointing/waterproofing project last summer and it was all on my wall and my side of the building. Lasted 12 weeks of nonstop banging I wanted to scream.
