In response to growing demand for inexpensive lodging close to Luxembourg City, several start-ups are now offering bed-sharing services.
Like office sharing, bed sharing is an attractive option for students, freelancers just starting out, or anyone earning less than 1.5 times the legal minimum salary.
“I was making 2200 euros a month, and half that was going for a cramped bedroom in an apartment in Gasperich that I rarely saw,” said Ulf Olsson. “I thought, why am I paying for a bed for 24 hours a day when I only use it for eight?” Olsson created Bedspace, which matches people who don’t need their beds between 5 a.m. and 2 p.m., for example, with someone who would like to doze at that time.
