While Kiwi's normally are the one's tasked with counting sheep, or else light sleepers the trend is no changing with budget hotels.

As both established international chains and newly launched brands look to shrink hotel rooms to meet the growing mass market, metrics now target dwell or sleep time.

This equates back to how much time actually spent in a hotel room and what essential needs are.

So be it budget, limited budget or else the Tune Hotels micro model size does matter.

While we did name C9 Hotelworks after relaxing on cloud number 9, I'm not sure about a remake of Sheepless in Seattle though.
