Have you seen the tiny rooms? They’re arguably more cramped & dangerous than the bunkhouses & a long way from traditional bedsits, though as a basic idea there’s no reason why they couldn’t be alright.
EDIT: no idea how this reply ended up here. Removing main body & hopefully can post it in the right place.
EDIT EDIT: seems it was in the right place, so putting the main text back.
No, I actually had not heard of tiny rooms before so maybe I should be careful with what I wish for 😬 I have stayed in bunkhouses and had a mixed bag. Some were really nice, but one I remember being able to hold hands from our beds. It was pretty close. More like a barracks. I guess like anything else, good design matters!
I’ll look into the tiny rooms. I am now picturing those little pods on Tokyo…
