On late August, I’ve posted about Mall of America plan to open a nap store called MinneNAPolis. Located on the mall, it will offer a room for taking a rest in a rate of 70 cents/minute or about $42/hour.

Hirune-ya Hitoyasumi (hirune = nap, ya = store, hitoyasumi = break), a company in Osaka, is currently offering the same thing. They provide a little rooms with beds or armchairs, so (tired) people can rent them and take a nap, especially during their work break.

Charged about 700 yen/hour, the store is based on the concept that a nap of 30 to 45 minutes helps enhancing efficiency at work and reducing stress. As a bonus, you will also receive a feet massage, so you can really enjoy your nap.
