Zipline Descent to Underground Floor
Disconnected from Civilization but Amenities Maintained
A lodging sharing company, 'Airbnb,' has introduced the deepest accommodation ever, sparking public interest. This shared lodging, located in a mining village in Wales, UK, is situated deep underground.
The internationally renowned YouTube channel 'Off the hook,' which has 1.2 million subscribers, recently posted a video titled "Staying at the World's Deepest Airbnb Accommodation."

They claimed to have discovered the "world's deepest accommodation" on Airbnb. This lodging is located in the mining village of 'Tanygrisiau' in the Welsh region of the UK.
Finding the way down to the accommodation was a challenge. Since the entire village was built around a mine, they had to climb a massive mountain. Except for areas developed for mining, most of the mountain had no established paths, so the YouTubers had to hike along trails that were almost wild.
Upon reaching the mine entrance, they had to descend underground. The filming crew wore helmets equipped with headlights and navigated narrow mine tunnels to go down. Some sections were broken, requiring them to secure themselves with ropes and rappel down.
After many trials, they reached the bottom of the mine, where they were greeted by a wooden lodging emitting light. The accommodation, presumed to have been a resting place for former miners, consisted of several cozy lodging units and outdoor tables.
Although the lodging was located in a space almost completely cut off from civilization, surprisingly, it was equipped with supplies and amenities for travelers. There was a bathtub with hot water and beds, as well as food and electricity. The YouTuber who filmed the video said, "You could find everything imaginable on Airbnb," and admired, "It's amazing to think of creating a hotel at the bottom of such an underground space."
Viewers of the video responded with comments such as, "It looks like a scene from a horror movie," "It seems like an old closed mine converted into a hotel and tourist attraction. I salute those who maintain this facility," and "Spending a night in a place like that would be an unforgettable experience."
