This experimental concept has a similar premise as [Airbnb](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airbnb-rooms), instead individuals rent out spaces by the hour, as appose to nightly or weekly. Catering to tired travelers, this service enables individuals to find a [quick place to rest](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spacepal), relax or to enjoy a shower. Hosts simply list a space, with photos and a brief description, while travelers in the area search for an abode that satisfies one's specific requirements. Through Pop and Rest, travelers that don't have immediate access to a hotel room are provided a safe and cost-effective place to relax, while those looking to make some extra cash, can do so in a manner that's less of a commitment than renting one's apartment overnight. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 32% | Activity: 34% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [World](https://www.trendhunter.com/world) > [Travel](https://www.trendhunter.com/travel) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **On-demand Napping Services:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Capitalize on the rising trend of on-demand services by creating a platform for individuals to rent out spaces for napping purposes. - **Short-term Space Rental:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create a marketplace like Airbnb, but for short-term rentals of spaces for quick rest and relaxation. - **Mobile Accommodation Solutions:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop a mobile app that connects travelers with nearby spaces for napping, providing a convenient and accessible solution for tired individuals. ### Who This Affects Most - **Travel and Hospitality:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce on-demand napping services to the travel and hospitality industry, offering tired travelers a flexible and convenient option for rest during their journey. - **Sharing Economy:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Leverage the sharing economy model to facilitate short-term space rentals for napping purposes, providing an alternative to traditional accommodation options. - **Wellness and Relaxation:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Tap into the wellness and relaxation industry by creating a platform that connects individuals in need of a quick nap with available spaces designed for optimal rest and rejuvenation. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Airport Sleep Stations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airport-dimensions.md) - [Vertical Nap Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/napping-pods.md) - [Single-Room Rental Services](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airbnb-rooms.md) - [Upright Cafe Sleeping Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nescaf-harajuku.md) - [Sleep-Focused Hotel Offerings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/equinox-sleep-lab.md) - [Secret Sleep Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ikea-sleepeasy.md) - [Pillow Fort Hotel Retreats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emma-1.md) - [Standing Tranquil Napping Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/giraffenap.md) - [Face-First Flight Rest Aids](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rest-aid.md)
