Crossword Genius

Room for taxi at home (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cabin

'room' is the definition.
(cabin is a kind of room)

'taxi at home' is the wordplay.
'taxi' becomes 'cab' (synonyms).
'at home' becomes 'in' ('I'm in' can mean 'I'm at home').
'cab'+'in'='CABIN'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for cabin that I've seen before include "Hamper" , "Compartment on a ship" , "class at sea?" , "Railway signal box" , "Small room on a ship" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
