Guest bedroom

10 years ago

I have a small spare bedroom 10x10, that I would like to make a guest room. Should I put a queen size bed in there? We may have couples stay so I want to accommodate them. Also, what are other essentials this room should have to make guests comfortable?

Yes to queen this is not a big space so no dressers but maybe a folding luggage rack a small chair and night stands with decent reading lamps . Then a robe, a basket with essentials and I like to add a couple of magazi

nes with something they are interesed in a wall mounted T.V a nice stack of towels . Don’t store your stuff in the guest room and don’t use all your leftover furniture either try to make it feel like a really high end B&B
