If you live in the Bay Area, you can already afford to live in a hotel in a lot of places. $2,500 to $3,000 a month (price of a studio) = $83 to $100 a night (median hotel price in the US is $133). Considering hotels give discounts for longer stays, this should be more than enough.

Tons of luxury hotels (4-5 stars) around the world have rooms for $133/night or even less.

Note that the grandparent didn't say "luxury" anywhere.

Fair point.

If you're good with 4 stars you could probably get there with a little internet sleuthing.

Casinos running specials trying to attract gamblers during the off season is probably the best bet. Or low population areas like the midwest.

Steep hotel taxes are what generally make this infeasible.
