Shen is charming and humble throughout KSBW's interview. He told them, "Maybe people might like it, maybe people may not like it...So, [we'll] see how it goes."

Check in is at 10 p.m. and check out is at 5 a.m. The security camera remains on all night — so we wouldn't recommend bringing a date over when you're staying there.

At time of writing, the "Gas Station Stay Over" has sadly been taken down from Airbnb — perhaps because it was so cozy, its first guest decided to move in.
