Isn’t This What Libraries And Bus Stations Are For?

I don’t know which is worse — the $22 bagel or the $14 nap:

After parting a light-blocking black fabric “door,” clients will have officially traveled from the fast-paced life of New York City into the soothing atmosphere of the pod room. The room is dimly lit-almost to total darkness-and features two rows of four pearl white, circular sleep pods all draped in a blanket of hypnotizing scent and sound. The unmistakable sound in the room reminds one of the background noise of an airplane’s cabin. The sound acts as an auditory buffer. And the experience is not simply an audio/visual one. The enticing scent that fills the space was developed by an aroma therapist and is aptly dubbed the “Elixir of Sleep.”

Once you settle into your pod, the first thing you will notice is how comfortable the leather seats are. Your host, a young entrepreneur named Larry, will then proceed to pivot your pod to the angle of your liking, in which you can achieve a “full Batman” position if you so choose. After selecting your angle, you will cover your ears with top quality noise cancelling Bose headphones that emit an assortment of sleep-aiding ambient sounds. You will then envelop your face with a sleep mask, and you will finally begin to count sheep.
