I spent $1,000 for a 30-hour Amtrak ride in a private bedroom. Take a look inside the 45-square-foot space with a full bathroom.

• I spent 30 hours in a sleeper car on an Amtrak train traveling from Miami to New York City in 2021.
• For $1,000, I booked a bedroom, which is about the size of a king-size bed with a full bathroom.
• At around 45 square feet, my cabin made impressive use of a tiny space without feeling cramped.

In October 2021, I spent 30 hours on an Amtrak train traveling from Miami to NYC. Since it was an overnight trip, I booked a bedroom accommodation for $1,000.

The bedroom was about 45 square feet, and I thought it made great use of a small space by packing in amenities without sacrificing room to stretch out and move my body for the long ride. 

Follow me into the overnight train accommodation for a peek at every detail of this tiny, moving hotel room.
