The photo with bench did not post. So here it is:

I would choose the bench. The sofa seems to make the space look cramped. It's a nice sofa, though.. Shame it has no more space in the rest of the house!

Bench looks like it fits better

Go with the bench. Makes the room look bigger. I would walk through my house one more time to see if there is a way to keep the sofa.

bench.

if you love the couch (why not?) go through your house, compare every piece of furniture you have placed with the couch. its amazing what we unthinkingly decide we need. couch vs other furniture smackdown.

Does the couch have to go at the end of the bed. It does look cramped there. Is there another way to arrange the furniture.

Bench

It appears the bench works better at the foot of the bed.

Hi there. I say go with the bench. The sofa is overwhelming and takes away from the bed. Good luck!

I say the bench is a better fit for the room. The sofa is too much for the end of the bed.

Bench.and if you can find it in the right style, maybe even a storage bench for extra linens?

bench sofa seems cluttered

Thanks for all your comments. I prefer the bench too!

The bench is definitely the cleaner look!

Are you keeping to sofa?

I had the same question but I will do the bench .. it looks nice and sleek , a sofa looks kind of odd to mE placed at the end of bed.
