And lastly, most people look for apartments via StreetEasy but given you are looking for an open room in an apartment with other occupants, you might want to give Roomi a try. Source: almost 2 years ago

I’d actually recommend Roomi instead of Airbnb, since Airbnb is going to be very expensive and you’d end up with a room in an Airbnb anyway. Here is a filter for Brooklyn for your budget and here is one for Manhattan! Source: almost 2 years ago

Also, I would suggest joining a hospitality org. The best, original one is Servas - www.servas.org - but there's couchers.org, trustroots.org and others. it could help you immensely. Source: 11 months ago

Have a look at trustroots.org. Still pretty quiet, but seems to be growing. Source: about 1 year ago

That's because they built the site with volunteers and then the founders cashed in and now the site is behind a paywall. Better join bewelcome.org, trustroots.org, or couchers.org. Source: over 1 year ago

There is bewelcome.org, trustroots.org, couchers.org .All of them smaller but without paywall. Source: over 1 year ago

Ues the website or use another app like couchers.org or trustroots.org . Free options exist -and in the end it is supposed to be an experience-sharing thing, not about money for the devs. Source: almost 2 years ago
