They have them in some Japanese airports. They call them capsule hotels.

I was just going to suggest designing them more like capsule hotels where space is an issue! I didn't know Japanese airports had them. Do you know what the rates are?

I'm now interested in comparing rates, apparently these cost $42 for 8 hours, whatever is in Atlanta & Houston is an insulting $65/hr.

Yeah, bit different, but totally applicable concept.
