Somewhat reminiscent of the accommodations on the Knight Bus in Harry Potter, these bus beds were created to make overnight commuters feel more at home. Simba -- the same high tech mattress brand behind tech-infused outdoor loungers and re-engineered airline beds -- designed a revolutionary double decker bus equipped with sleeping pods to offer commuters a home on the road. The Simba Snoozeliner has 14 sleeping pods on board that provide a premium-level good night's sleep and has the potential to transform how people think about nighttime commutes.
In addition to high tech bus beds, the Snoozeliner includes shuttle service, which includes a wake-up call, storage for your valuables, individual revitalizer kits, free unlimited mineral water and access to wifi and USB chargers.
