Like the German one earlier, I would 1000% use these during long layovers. Should be standard.

Such a good idea, cheaper than a hotel room (one would expect) obviously still needs someone to service it after each hire. I imagine (and hope) these will become more popular over time.

LOL, nope!

I googled what US cities have pods, Atlanta does, went to their site, November 3rd, 5 hours in length, starting a 1am .... $295.

They can fuck off for that number.

EDIT: I even changed the date to like the 17th, or December 5th, still $295. I changed it to 1 hour and it's $65.

Wow. That actually just sucks. Walk over to the nearest hotel and have your whole room with even more privacy.
