What is a "pied-a-terre"?
A pied-à-terre is a small, often temporary living space or apartment, typically located in a city or urban area. It is usually used by people who live elsewhere but need a place to stay for short periods, such as business trips or weekend visits. Pied-à-terre apartments are often smaller than a full-time residence and may have basic amenities. They are popular with individuals who want a convenient and comfortable space in a city without committing to full-time living there.
Example
