Can I sleep on your guest bed?

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

Ok maybe not ME but can someone who you wouldn’t mind having as a guest sleep on your guest bed right now?

My guest room has been a wreck for some years. Well, organized chaos. I was selling a lot of stuff online so I stored all my wares in there and only cleared off the bed when I did photo shoots. I don’t get many overnight visitors but there have been times when I had to send them to the basement couch to sleep due to the guest bed being occupied by stuff.

I finally got it cleared out this summer and now I am pleased to have a clean bed in there. It’s a nice feeling.

What’s the state of your guest bed? Quick, your family is on their way over for the holidays!

  • Yes, the bed is made and ready for sleeping
  • Yes, if you give me a moment to move some stuff around
  • No, because someone else has claimed it
  • No, because it’s covered in stuff I can’t move right now
  • No, I have a guest room but there’s no bed. I can set you up on the floor.
  • No, I don’t have a guest room at all

I have a guest couch…does that count? Something between bed and floor.

I could have gone either way. I have two guest bedrooms. One is always at the ready and will sleep 2 persons comfortably.

If more than 2 people are staying, then I have some work to do to prepare the other guest room, which mostly functions as my office. It’s never too bad, but it’s not guest-ready.

I’d need an hour or two to tidy up and wash the sheets, but we do have a functional guest bedroom.

5

I have a guest room with a sofa that converts to a bed (not a hide-a-bed and very comfortable), but that wasn’t an option.

6

I’d say I would need to give you a moment to move some stuff around to convert that couch to a bed, no?

Heh. I started a thread looking for advice here a while back: What's your preferred guest bed?

My husband and I share a 3-bed, 1-bath house. The smallest room is his office; the two large rooms are our bedroom and my office, the latter of which doubles as our guest room. So far we’ve only got a queen-sized air mattress. We’d be happy to set it up for ya, won’t take long, but hopefully you’re not planning on staying more than a weekend because honestly I kinda need my office for work.

My dream is to build an ADU with a 3/4 bath and kitchenette over the detached garage, and make that our guest house. It’d have a real bed that the cat would never get to poop on or dander up; a TV they could turn up as loud as they want, as late as they want; and a coffeemaker and mini fridge we’d stock with their favorite beer and whatever blasphemous adulterants they liked in their coffee. We’d be such gracious hosts if we could shove our guests into a nice little bubble like that.

I’ve got a futon in my study, but honestly I’d rather you didn’t use it as a guest bedroom because it’s my study - my pc is in there. Also the cat’s litter box is in that particular closet so the door to that room can’t really be closed for logistical reasons.

I could of course accommodate as needed and I would. But wouldn’t you rather stay in a nice hotel :slight_smile:?

Actually, no. I just pull it out from the wall–there’s room–then fold up the seat, lower it, and voilà, It’s a bed. I planned the room around it. That sofa was one of the smartest things I’ve ever bought.

I have a clean, fully stocked, fully functional turn-key guest room that gets used maybe once every 1-2 years.

mmm

At the moment, half the guest bed is under a pile of wrapped gifts. And since my granddaughter has slept there a couple of times in recent weeks, I should probably put in fresh sheets. Other than that, good to go.

Right now we would be setting a guest up on an air mattress. Sometime in the next 6 months we’ll have a bed in the guest room instead.

We moved into this house late last December, so the guest room has been my wife’s office and knitting room as pandemic.

Sometime in the next 18 months I expect my daughter will probably move out though. So we’ll probably paint her room and make it guest room.

13

Al long as you don’t mind sharing it with 3 cats, go right ahead.

Our guest bedroom is ready to be occupied. The guest bathroom is ready as well, though we might replace the fancy towels with utilitarian towels.

In addition we have a cool inflatable mattress we can set up in the living room that is actually pretty comfortable.

15

We have a dedicated guest bedroom that is usually ready to go. You might occasionally find something temporarily on the bed that is waiting to get put away, but typically it’s made up and ready for guests.

But right now we have 4 fully made up guest rooms (regular, wife’s office, 4-season porch, and basement room) in preparation for my wife’s family arriving tomorrow.

No guest room at the moment, but I have a lovely large couch that can sleep two comfortably if they know each other well enough. If you combine it with the matching ottoman (bench sized, not s teeny square thing) its about the size of a twin(4x6) bed.

I have some great thick comfy blankets to go with it though. Heck sometimes Vaderling and I end up crashed out on binging Legend of Korra

ETA I forgot about the newly acquired rack of torment…uuuuh… I mean dentist chair :grin:. you know, the powered reclining elevating kind. A person could sleep in that as well

I would rather pay the 80+ dollars for a motel room for you. In fact, I’ve done just that on a couple of occasions.

We have a guest room. Well, it’s a two bedroom house and it’s just my Wife and I.

We also have a pseudo guest room. It’s our entry way. It has a door to the outside and a door into the house. It’s heated. In about 10 minutes we can have that set up with an AeroBed. Works great. In fact I slept in there for three weeks when I had my hip replaced because I didn’t want to deal with stairs.

A couple of our friends seem to prefer the entry way to the guest room also because of stairs and it’s closer the the downstairs bathroom.

I wasn’t sure how to answer. I have a room with a sofa bed. Right now, there’s a table in the way that I’d have to move to open the bed. And a modest amount of other crap.

It will definitely take more than a moment to move the crap around, but if you want to spend the night, yes, i can prepare space for you. Happy to do so. Hey, give me an hour or two and you’ll have a nice room with a private bath.
