You brought back a memory! I used to take Greyhounds home from college in the early 70's. I tried one of these once in a Greyhound station (it was 25¢ for thirty minutes, I believe). It was crowded and it was more fun to watch others pictures go off when the time ran out. (No one wanted to put more money in if you didn't have to.) Some people only used these because they could sit down when the place was crowded. Even so, all of the TV's on different channels in a noisy crowded bus station was not optimal. Only did it once.
Can only make out a couple words on the sign attached to the back of the chairs.
