Thanks, Airbnb: New York’s Hottest New Hotel Is a Parked Van in Queens

 

Home sweet home for $99 night. -conversion-van

 

Spending the night in a conversion van parked by the East River in Long Island City sounds like part of a horror film, but oh no, it’s “an awesome experience” that is being rented out on Airbnb for $99 a night. Yes, that’s right. There is a man renting his multiple conversion vans, plus an old taxi and a camper, to tourists (mostly Europeans) on Airbnb. Queens Crap (via New York Shitty) spotted the multiple listings, and they raise so, so many questions. Rates are as cheap as $22 per night, so they make sense from an economical perspective, but what about showers? Bathrooms? Security? Heat and/or AC? Is this some kind of performance art?
