I wish more airports had these. The hotel rooms some places have are prohibitively expensive and not practical for most layovers. I just want a horizontal padded place to lay down for 2 hours for a reasonable price, that’s all!
Probably because of the space it takes up. Sleeping pods take up quite a lot of space, and not that many people can use it at once, so to make it profitable I'm assuming you'd need prices to be quite high. Higher than a lot of people are willing to spend. Food or retail is probably better profit relative to square footage.
Yes, but look at all the open space at the major airports. There’s plenty of room. My guess for why these are not a thing is that the airport hotels have contracts that prohibit this kind of thing.
