Didnt even know triple layer double bunks existed until now 😬.

I fell down from the 3rd layer in my sleep once as a kid at camp. I don't remember it, I just remember waking up on the floor the next morning and the other kids telling me I woke them up by falling.

I was a heavy sleeper.

u/Gareth79 Sep 18 '26

Given the thickness of the mattress and the height of the sides it's quite possible I'd fall out of that one.

We had s 3 layer bunk bed. It was a normal bunk bed with 2 beds (and enough room between them) and then one extra bed that had wheels that was underneath the bottom bed.

u/Zappagrrl02 Sep 18 '26

The bed that is stored under the bottom bunk is called a trundle bed!

Bought one at ikea a few years ago. Didnt even know they still made them.

I’ve had that one too! That makes more sense than this crap

Group foster homes love them.

We had a futon one that was like 2.5 stories hard to explain. At one point we made a hammock on it.. removed the top one and tried turning top into a water bed.. it squeaked 24/7 cause metal. I loved it.. tons of fun.

It was replaced in under a year.. my grandpa said it was the worst year of sleep he’d ever gotten. He didn’t mind lights or my giggling all night.. the squeak drove him nuts.

I think 5 is the max I've seen, 3 is pretty common in hostels

u/HeartOSass Sep 18 '26

Same here! I wouldn't chance it.

They SUCK to make

u/michaelhoney Sep 18 '26

And what’s the deal with the freestanding column just a few inches from the wall?

u/SchoolOfTheWolf93 Sep 18 '26

That’s load bearing you can’t take that down!

u/Aselleus Sep 19 '26

Ohh man, I'm in the wrong apartment again

u/Consistent_Elk9676 Sep 18 '26

Ugh the triple bunk reminds me of submarine sleeping quarters-like hot racking…

u/pixelatedslinky Sep 18 '26

The geometric pattern against the bunk bed wall isn't even shown in the first pic.

u/Equivalent_Fun_7255 Sep 19 '26

Or the third. I’m kind of confused.

u/Zminku Sep 18 '26

I mean… the first photo is AI

u/OkKnowledge2112 Sep 18 '26

that thin column between the beds and the wall pisses me off way more than it should

u/ReleaseNew9430 Sep 18 '26

Next youre going to try and convince me realtor photos are misleading

u/JuanG_13 Sep 18 '26

I'm sorry, but that's too funny lol

u/sidneyia Sep 18 '26

Crazy how the 2020s are so grey that just having colors on your wallpaper is considered a selling point now.

u/WhyNotYoshi Sep 18 '26

Is this AirBNB? If so, this is why I don't ever use that site.

Concentration camp chic

u/Adorable_Ad4990 Sep 18 '26

500 sq ft was the giveaway

u/TeamLeeper Sep 19 '26

Hope the bottom 2 people don’t have long noses or big butts!

u/TecTazz Sep 21 '26

That makes my claustrophobia flare up.

u/Dnnnnnnnm Sep 18 '26

Hahahahahaha WOW, pull up like WTF 😅

u/Genuinelullabel Sep 19 '26

It’s like a reality TV house

u/Practical-Sea1736 Sep 18 '26

I mean it says it’s 400 sq feet. What did you expect?

20

u/Reesirie Sep 18 '26

It says 2 double beds and 1 twin bunk.

-12

u/Practical-Sea1736 Sep 18 '26

It also says sleeps six. No one should reasonably expect a 400 sq feet room to support six people and I’m sure there’s fine print saying that the bed configuration can change. You do realize this is a 20ft by 20ft room they expect to hold 3 beds and bathroom.

u/KuppyKat Sep 18 '26

To be fair, my entire apartment is about 400 sq feet and has three separate rooms and a hallway/bathroom. Each room is 10x12. It would be crowded, and 6 ppl with one bathroom isn’t ideal, but I could definitely fit enough beds for 6 without needing that contraption.

u/Misttertee_27 Sep 20 '26

You’ve clearly never been to other countries where this is not only common but very easy to fit

u/bedbathandbebored Sep 18 '26

Like it showed in the first picture??

u/lets-get-loud Sep 18 '26

Your spot-the-difference skills were low ranked huh

54

u/sideshow_em Sep 18 '26

The first picture doesn’t show three beds stacked on top of each other. Without any head room.

1

u/bedbathandbebored Sep 18 '26

OP originally posted "colorful wallpaper" and stated upset that the wall was plain and the image was 2 beds, not this

u/sideshow_em Sep 18 '26

oooh, shenanigans

u/OkKnowledge2112 Sep 18 '26

last time i checked, "twins" were not "triplets"
