 In San Francisco, a company called Brownstone Shared Housing is offering "sleeping pods" for rent at $700 per month. Despite violating city codes in the past, the facility has received 300 applications for its remaining 17 beds. The pods provide basic amenities like privacy curtains and charging ports. However, the building remains in violation of planning and building codes due to a misrepresentation on the application.
