STR bed sizes / sheets question

Account Closed

Hey all -

I'm about to purchase a three bedroom STR. The master can accommodate a queen, the two other rooms are smaller, and could probably accommodate a full without it being too large.

I need help figuring a few things out:

1. What would you do for beds? I'm thinking a queen in the master, and the two smaller rooms get a full / twin bunk bed, or the two smaller rooms could get a twin / twin bunk bed.

2. For sheets, if I went with all white, I can see where this would be a disaster to have 5 beds worth of sheet, all the same color, for three different size beds. Would you do a different color for each size bed? Whats your strategy?

I go with the biggest bed I can possibly fit. There's only a couple of inches difference between full and queen I bet you can fit a queen. I also bet you can fit a king in the master. Time to get out your tape measure! 

As far as sheet color this is up to your cleaner. Some cleaners ONLY want white. The others HATE white. The white/no white discussion goes on and on in the STR world. I'm a no white kind of guy. Another piece of advice... Don't get microfiber they're junk. Spend the extra dough and get cotton sheets.

Good luck!
