OMG. The ones with 3' ceilings are cracking me up. I mean, I guess for $550 I'd take a room in the NYC area with a low ceiling, but it would have to be ridiculously well located.
I didn't live in anything with 3 foot ceilings, but I did live in some not so nice places when I was in NYC. The worst was probably a 8ft by 8ft room in a fourth floor walk up in the far east village for $900 a month. It was a great deal because it was rent controlled, but that really just meant it came with it's own crazy cat lady as a roommate.
Some of these pictures are making me claustrophobic.
ETA - I did used to know someone who lived in one of those 3.5'' rooms though. It didn't seem to impede his love life.
I did not know it was like that. I mean I knew there were very small spaces in NYC and I visited a friend in Brooklyn who's room was closet sized, but it was still part of a normal apartment and building. Wow, those are crazy.
