Want to spend a night living like the king of Woodstock? Well, for $165/night you can crash in the house Jimi Hendrix stayed in during his time in Hawaii.

Known as The Gingerbread House, the 1930s cottage has been remodeled to fit the needs of your average rock star virtuoso.

Hendrix stayed in the cottage while filming his concert movie Rainbow Bridge. The pint-sized pad is nestled in a tropical forest of ginger trees, macadamia nuts, avocados and even wild coffee...

...and of course, chairs out front to watch the rock star shred (hopefully a good distance from where he inevitably burns his guitar).

If Jimi liked this place, then he would've loved to check out a WeLive space—two beds, both in the same room. Looks like co-living to me.

The property sports a kitchenette with a two-burner stovetop and no oven...wait, seriously, is this actually a WeLive studio-plus?

If you ignore the cramped living quarters, Jimi certainly got his privacy at the humble abode—here's a view (or lack thereof) of the pad from the closest neighbor's property.

You have to wonder if that poster was up when Jimi stayed here—definitely, don't you think?

The custom-built shower sports a psychedelic fish on the outside wall—yes, probably also here in the '70s. Some things are certainly updated, though, like the wireless internet—oh yeah, and the fact that it's listed on Airbnb.
