The speculative value of land in London has become so ridiculous that the only way for hoteliers to maintain reasonable rates is to put tiny, windowless cells in weird parts of their building.
You might get a 'capsule-style' room or some kind of horrifying Black Mirror fake window on the wall. They're marketing this as 'innovative' and argue that there's a market there, but it's actually a borderline human rights violation. South Korea and Japan already have people sleeping in what basically amounts to torpedo tubes, such is their conviction that living like an insect in a hive is the correct way to organise a society.
