temporary stay

Short-term lodging arrangement

A temporary stay is a brief period of residence or presence in a place, with the understanding that departure will follow: a temporary stay in a hotel, a temporary stay abroad while waiting for visa approval.

In legal contexts, a temporary stay can also mean a court order that briefly halts proceedings or delays enforcement of a judgment until further review.
