Tanker Posted February 9, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Three in a cabin and mom and dad are worried about 4 yr old in top bunk. Has anyone ever moved a mattress from the top bunk and put it on the floor? Is there room for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spookwife Posted February 9, 2019 #2 Share Posted February 9, 2019 depends on cabin category. why not just have the cabin steward make up the couch? even if it doesn't convert they can jigger something. IIRC the Pullmans are not recommended for anyone under 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC recommends children be 6 years of age to use. How much room there would be depends on the cabin/ship that you are sailing on; not all cabins are the same size. Probably doable; but tight - depending on cabin configuration and size. If you have a sofa you might be better off having steward make up a bed on sofa.

Tanker Posted February 9, 2019 Author #4 Share Posted February 9, 2019 We are talking about the Pullman. We are in a Villa Suite and are already using the couch. Want to keep the family together in one of the smaller bedrooms, so we are thinking our best option is to put the mattress on the floor. Has anyone done this before? Any issues with the stewards? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanker Posted February 9, 2019 Author #12 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Yes we are on the Freedom of the Seas and the Presidential Suite (6414) is now called the Villa Suite. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulxyz2004 Posted February 9, 2019 #13 Share Posted February 9, 2019 I might be wrong, but from when I visited the Suite on Freedom several years ago, I recall there no Sofa bed being in any of the 4 bedrooms. The Sofa bed was in the Living room. The two inside bedrooms with the bunk beds had very limited Floor space. Much less than a regular inside cabin. Putting a mattress on the Floor would probably mostly elliminate any Floor space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you´ve certainly confused me, as I can see only one Villa Suite on the link you posted and the description fits the size of the Presidential Suite.

Sorry. Early morning fuzzy brain. I should have left the link there alone. Yes, just one; not divided. Just renamed. Oh, good. I still had time to edit!!! 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my immediate first thought. Two years ago, I shared an inside cabin with my wife and MIL. They each got the two lower beds, while I took the pullman. After the first night I learned to watch my head while climbing up the ladder. No big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For cruising when our son was 3 and 4, the room steward made up a nice bed on the floor using sheets and blankets. Kiddo slept just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
