New York is among the most expensive destinations for tourists in the world - visit the Statue of Liberty usually involves being willing to fork over $ 250 dollars a night in a hotel. For those can not afford this level of accommodation, there is an alternative to Airbnb it costs just over $ 39.
Just be willing to open luxury hand, is nothing very spacious, no breakfast included. Or shower? or bathroom. The time in question is on wheels: it is one of the classic yellow cabs in the city, fitted with a double bed, blanket, fan and curtains.
A reporter from Business Insider site spent two nights in the car and gave tips: do not eat anything with a strong smell inside the "house", take bottled water to brush your teeth and do not exaggerate in luggage. Also do not expect to save on transport: the room is in a taxi, but the keys are not with the guest. The car is parked, 10 minutes from Times Square and the extensive network of city subway. The view from the window to the East River, with the buildings of Manhattan in the background. From the bed, you can see the sun set behind the Empire State Building.
If sleeping in the car is not what you would expect for vacation in the Big Apple, at least the stay is not unpleasant, according to most guests have left recommendations in Aibnb. In the end, it is not very different from camping in the concrete jungle, with greater protection against the rain. You can not carry the phone in the car (to do this, you need to go to the nearest Starbucks).
The taxi is not the only vehicle turned into a hostel on wheels: the host, Jonathan Powley, has a total of 7 vans and trailers fitted with beds, which are all parked on a dead end street in Queens. So, if you are facing the adventure, you are likely to find someone else going through the same experience in the neighborhood - you can enjoy and seek the bathroom closer together.
