Question
They arrived to stay in a Zimmer and see that there is no Mezuzah. Is it permissible to sleep there?
Answer
Since the stay in the place is not intended for a long period, if additionally agreed with the landlord that he can evict them at any moment he wishes, the place will be considered a 'hostel' exempt from Mezuzah, provided the stay is less than thirty days.
