The "$1 room" is almost never a real hotel room you can find on a booking site. The Reality: In this specific video, the "$1 room" was essentially a mattress placed in a hallway or a shed. The "Deception": It’s used as a comedic contrast. While it costs MrBeast $1 to set up, it isn't a functional business open to the public. It's a staged element for the video's narrative.
