For lb26 or roughly USD $50 per night you will have the luxury of a fully furnished tent that includes a double bed, bedside tables, lights, duvet, pillows, a dressing table, a mirror, and a chair. The tent also comes with a toilet, so there is no need to run into the wilderness.
The size of the tent is six meters long, 2.4 meters wide and 2.6 meters high, made of clear poly-carbonate glass. According to Travelodge officials, the TravelPod is still on trial stage.
