Airbnb is a billion-dollar startup that lets you rent out your apartment for anywhere from a few days to months at a time.
You could literally move to a new city and spend months jumping from apartment to apartment, if you wanted.
I would know, I'm doing it right now!
And there are some pretty sweet apartments available through the site. Sure, they're more expensive than your typical apartment, but chances are you won't find an apartment with some of these views. Or a mansion, for that matter.
If you have enough people traveling with you, or if you have the extra cash to spend, you can rent out one of these awesome apartments. (Note, I haven't stayed in any of these places, they're just outside of my tax bracket.)
This one-bedroom has a nice view right next to Times Square
Price: $299/night
Location: Chelsea
This one-bedroom apartment has a pull-out sofa, so it's good for anywhere from two to four guests. It has a good view of downtown New York, but it'll cost you an additional $40 each night if you bring more than two people.
Check out the Hudson River from Battery Park
Price: $340/night
Location: Battery Park
This two-bedroom apartment sits in the middle of Battery Park and overlooks the Hudson River. It's around 1,200 square feet large and has a nice, lush outdoor patio.
The Empire State Building is just outside the window
Price: $390/night
Location: Koreatown
This one-bedroom apartment has a direct view of the Empire State Building and downtown New York City. You'll still have to share the apartment with a cat, though.
