If you’re traveling to Sioux Falls for work, chances are you’re getting a per diem—a daily allowance to cover meals, lodging, and incidentals. But not all travel accommodations are created equal. How you spend that per diem can make a huge difference in your comfort and your bottom line.
At Stay SOMNI, we host out-of-town guests working on everything from construction projects to corporate expansions right here in Sioux Falls. If your crew or team is here for 30+ days, let’s talk about how to stretch that per diem and skip the hotel hassle.

What’s a Per Diem, Anyway?
A per diem is your daily budget for travel-related expenses. Companies offer them to make expense tracking easier—and when used wisely, they can cover all your basic needs without coming out of pocket.
It typically includes:
Lodging
Meals
Incidentals (tips, fees, laundry, parking, etc.)

Hotels vs. Furnished Apartments in Sioux Falls
Let’s get real: extended hotel stays in Sioux Falls can get expensive and uncomfortable fast—especially when you’re stuck in a room with a mini-fridge and nowhere to cook a decent meal.
A 30-day hotel stay adds up fast once you count every night
A 30-day furnished apartment with Stay SOMNI comes with one clear rate, a full kitchen and laundry included

Why Having a Kitchen in Sioux Falls Saves You Serious Cash
Let’s say you get a daily meal allowance.
Eating out:
Breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks on the go add up quickly, every single day.
Staying with Stay SOMNI:
Make your own eggs, bacon, and coffee
Pack leftovers or lunch
Cook a solid dinner at night
That adds up to real meal savings for a month-long stay.
And when you’re working long hours? Sometimes it’s not about saving money—it’s about having a kitchen so you can eat real food and crash on a couch that’s not also your bed.
