In Amsterdam, the qbic hotel takes a somewhat related approach. It standardizes the hotel room inside of an existing multitenet building room (ie, it is appropriate for buildings not built to be hotels). "The Cubi is a cube shaped module which can be put together like an Ikea kit inside the room. It contains the bed (with that infamous high quality Hästens mattress), a LCD TV screen, a work-and-dine set, Philippe Starck bathroom elements, safe and high speed internet connection." I'm always curious about radically cheaper ways of providing quality living.
