TOKYO, Dec. 27 (UPI) -- A Tokyo non-profit has opened a storage facility for corpses awaiting funerals. It's billed as a "business hotel for the dead."

The LISS Center Shin-Kiba facility, which is run by funeral-arranging non-profit LISS System, can store up to 37 bodies in rooms with antibacterial lights, the Yomiuri Shimbun reported Monday.

I'm all for antibacterial lights in normal hotels. I won't even walk barefoot in a hotel room and I also bring my own pillow and blankets.

What will they think of next? They probably don't need any "Do Not Disturb" signs that hang on the doors...

I wonder if they have any Frequent Guest programs...

Hotels like that will probably leave their competitors.. out in the dust..
