The hotel rooms have kitchenettes, with the occasional room with an oven. Nearby grocery store that was walkable when it wasn’t the middle of the day but a lot of people used a grocery delivery app.

Breakfast included but you get sick of the same stuff over and over pretty quick.
Around 95 days seems to be the norm for 747 right now, with a few breaks in between where most go home for a couple of days. With the way my schedule is set right now, it will be somewhere between 95 to 100 days including the stuff after the rating ride.
The pace of training is very, shall we say, relaxed.
