Yes I did for a year while on a job in Memphis. It consisted of a very small fridge, microwave and coffee pot. Every day when they cleaned the room they left a package of coffee, creamer and sugar and kept the ice trays filled if I didnt. Not much to a kitchenette. Extended Stay Americas have full kitchens with all dishes pots and utensils included. Pricier but they are nice.

I've stayed In a couple.
We stayed in an extended stay when we first moved here for a week before our apt was open. It was essentially a small studio apt with a stove and full fridge. I don't think pans etc were included because I remeber silly advertisements in the elevators for a $20 set of pot pan plates and utensils.
I've also stayed in a couple Homewood Suites ($150-200/night, thankfully on works tab) that had full kitchenettes and they were stocked with pans etc, house cleaning even did the dishes.

Extended Stay America usually has good rates that are reasonable. Their rooms have a kitchen with stove/oven, sink, microwave and refrigerator and are stocked with usually a 4 place setting of dinnerware and also have minimal cookware. I've stayed in one several times when attending week-long shows and it certainly helped with my food costs since I was able to have breakfast there -- and lunch most days and dinner several times. One year when I was trying to come down with a cold I was able to stock up on chicken noodle soup and get over / stop it. It was nice to have a "home base" that offered a home-like quality.
