It's quite a bit cheaper to build the equivalent sized rooms with traditional stud walls. In fact, to actually convert a shipping container into a home, you pretty much need to frame out the floors, roof, and walls anyways, and the only function the container provides is an outer shell, especially if you want to add any doors or windows. There's a long list of complications with using a shipping container as a house that make it... not as efficient as one might expect.
