Sleep Box (pics) by afiq(m): 4:32am On Mar 10, 2010 |
DUBAI IS INSTALLING 50-70 BOXES, Sleep box - how about sleeping in a box when you are just passing by a large city? Size: 2 m x 1,40m x 2,30m to sleep in comfort and security. Cheap sleep in case of emergency for anyone rich or poor!! No time wasted looking for a hotel. Designed to be installed at train stations and airports, and central public places or cities where accommodation is fully booked. In tropical climate countries the sleeper box can be installed outdoors in main streets. The space includes bed, linen, ventilation system, alarm. LCD TV, WiFi , space for your laptop and re chargeable phone. Under your bed and floor there is a cupboard for your luggage. Payment is made at terminals who will give clients an electronic key that can be purchased for 15 minutes or for as many hours as you need.

looks exactly like the ones in The Fifth Element did they get the idea from there? nice innovation though- very comfy |

gongo aso:There's nothing ridiculous about the idea. Alot of international airports have "Yotels" which are like cabins (similar to these). If you are transiting thru the airport and you need a snooze, or your wait time is long or you have to wait overnite, you just pay for a Yotel and take a nap. There are showers in them. Couple years ago, I used one in the Amsterdam airport. It saved me from having to go out of the airport, catch a cab andgo look for a hotel and then check back in few hours later. |

And how much is this? Would you need a chain to tie it down, so that you are not stolen over night with the box? |

Lovely concept. Btw,quick question. . . .why would i pay to sleep for 15 minutes?An hour should be minimum. @oyb Its very possible,human beings are very adventurous |
Re: Sleep Box (pics) by Thelmabee: 8:54am On Mar 15, 2010 |

Re: Sleep Box (pics) by maedan(f): 4:23am On May 18, 2010 |
Looks like something that would make you claustrophobic . Well, Holiday Inn and co. have nothing to fear from these "sleep boxes" - no way will they catch on! Just a passing (craze). |
Re: Sleep Box (pics) by shotster50(m): 11:29pm On May 18, 2010 |
I believe Yotel has something similar to this in Heathrow and Schipol airports but on a slightly bigger scale. Pricey but definitely comes in handy. |
