The Most Bizarre Bed in Italy
Been there, done that in Italy? Read on!
In the small town of Prata Sannita near Naples, Italy there is a very interesting new “hotel”.
Having backpacked across Eastern Europe for months as a a college student, I thought that when it comes to “creative” sleeping arrangements, nothing could surprise me. Alas, I was wrong. Not once have I slept in an outdoor cage-bed that protrudes from a run down medieval building in small town Italy.
The Feld 72 association is known for taking on projects which “re-program the ways people use spaces and how they respond to social rules.” It recruited 40 volunteers who transformed this ruin of a building into the Million Donkey Hotel, whose website can be seen here.
If you have a healthy sense of adventure, inquire about spending a night or two here during your next holiday in Italy. Here is a link for the reservations page of the million donkey hotel. Now, we cannot vouch for whether the cage-bed is safe or what happens if it collapses and you plunge down into the valley, but hey, that's where the fun lies now isn't it?

"Their site says the 'concept' involves using the old spaces as meeting places, bedrooms, siesta spaces and a public bathroom.'"
Hopefully not all at the same time...
What a strange idea. Their site says the "concept" involves using the old spaces as "meeting places, bedrooms, siesta spaces and a public bathroom." Oh I hesitate to think about the use as a loo! :)
Better yet, I think I will put the husband in the cage bed, and me in the "black hole"
