If I was single and working 4-10s or 3-12s and wanted a way to just crash where I didn’t need a car or commute, and it would let me live the rest of the time out of the city, I’d probably do this. It reminds me a bit of the bunk houses of the early 20th century.

It would be a shitty long term existence for most but I can see its utility. Back when I was in college, a friend shared a 3BR with 5 other guys to make living near Julliard affordable. Note that I’m looking for space for the next generation of students I’m seeing tales of 8 people sharing 4 br flats in Edinburgh.
