Need a place for exactly 2 months? 8 weeks is too short, 9 is too long
If you need a place for exactly 2 months—between renovations, during a work assignment, or while changing jobs—you may find that lease terms only come in weeks, leaving you a few days short or over.
“For 2 months, should I book 8 weeks or 9?”
“Do I have to pay rent for the extra days?”
Before booking a 2-month stay, check three things:
① Exactly how many days your 2 months cover
② Whether the lease is by the week or by the day
③ What happens to the cost if you’re a few days short or over
Here’s how to book exactly 60 days for a 2-month stay.
Why don’t lease terms line up for a 2-month stay?
How many weeks should you book for 2 months on 33m2?
Two calendar months can be 59–62 days, or about 60 days.
On platforms that only offer weekly bookings, you’ll need to choose between 56 days (8 weeks) and 63 days (9 weeks).
Details | 33m2 | plott LIFE direct listings |
|---|---|---|
Lease unit | By the week | By the day for stays of 7 days or more |
Booking exactly 60 days | 8 weeks (56 days) is 4 days short; 9 weeks (63 days) leaves 3 days over | Book exactly 60 days |
Extending your stay | Extensions start at 1 week | Extensions also start at 1 day |
On 33m2, leases are weekly, so if your dates don’t line up, you’ll need to adjust by a full week.
If you need a daily booking, compare options with platforms that only offer weekly leases.

What if you’re a few days short or have days left over?
An 8-week booking leaves you 4 days short.
You might try to cover the gap with an extension, but extensions start at 1 week—so you may end up adding a full week just to cover 4 days.
Extensions need the host’s approval and may not be possible if someone else is waiting to book.
A 9-week booking leaves 3 days over.
According to a notice from 33m2, there are no partial refunds for unused days if you check out early.
Before booking, keep in mind that you may have to pay rent for those extra 3 days.

How to book exactly 60 days
With plott LIFE direct listings, you can choose your exact stay in days—including 60 days—for bookings of 7 days or more.
Book from your move-in date through your 60th day, so there’s no need to extend or pay for extra days.
With a direct listing, the simplest option is to book dates that match your schedule from the start.
(Applies to direct listings. Individual hosts set their own booking increments, so check each listing.)
Here are three ways direct listings make a 2-month stay easier:
①Book exactly 60 days, by the day.
Choose move-in and move-out dates that fit your renovation or work assignment.
②Direct listings start with no security deposit.
If a large deposit feels like a lot for a short stay, check the listing details first.
③For bookings of 28 days or more, split rent into monthly payments.
A 2-month stay qualifies. 33m2 doesn’t offer monthly payments.
Payment dates and amounts may vary by listing, so check the details before booking.
