Making a Bed out of Couch Cushions

[TinkFan74]

Myself, my daughter (21), niece (9), niece (2), and brother will be staying in a Kidani studio for four nights in May. My youngest niece is too tall to sleep in the Pack n Play so we need to come up with inventive solution regarding sleeping spaces. I am traveling from the west coast of Canada and I am only packing a carry on, so I don't want to bring an air mattress, but I could bring a fitted sheet to put over the couch cushions to make a small bed. has anybody else done this? I know it will be a tight squeeze, but my brother and I lived on a boat growing up so we can handle it for three nights. Does anybody else have any suggestions? The first week of our trip will be at the Poly villas, but my nine year old niece really wants to see the animals so we just had to move over to the Animal Kingdom area.

The cushions are not flat on the bottom and have a ridge to fit in the grove when you put them on the sofa. If you put them up against the wall with the ridge on the outer edge, they will keep her from rolling off.

We travel with this. Fits easily in a carry on, still allowing for clothing. Very comfortable, stows away easily. Was an excellent investment. Our kids fight over who get the cot. You will use it for years.

You could always have a cheap air mattress shipped right to your hotel.

This one is less than $15:

(Which I expect means it won't last horribly long - but then again, you don't need it to!)

This is what they used to look like (2008)

You could take the mattress out of the pack N play and put it on the floor.
