We never have overnight guests though. If we did they could sleep on the couch....or on an air mattress on the sun porch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests/page/2#post-1039973 Fri, 23 Aug 2013 13:23:37 +0000 LovelyPlum 1039973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In a pinch, we could, but it would be tight. We are in less than 800 sq ft, so while it could be done, I wouldnt call it roomy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests/page/2#post-1039885 Fri, 23 Aug 2013 13:05:28 +0000 Mae 1039885@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep we do have a guest room and will still have it once we make a nursery. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests/page/2#post-1039849 Fri, 23 Aug 2013 12:57:15 +0000 Boogs 1039849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, not unless we setup an air mattress somewhere, but all of our bedrooms are occupied in one way or another now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1039514 Fri, 23 Aug 2013 11:33:59 +0000 littlek 1039514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, we have 4 bedrooms and an office which I guess could be used as a guest room, we also have room for a MIL suite in the basement. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1039500 Fri, 23 Aug 2013 11:29:05 +0000 LindsayInNY 1039500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our "guest" will also (one day) be a nursery and part office. Talk about multi-tasking! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1039379 Fri, 23 Aug 2013 10:46:28 +0000 Richelle 1039379@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, we live in a one bedroom condo but we bought a fancy pants sleeper sofa from American Leather that our parents or siblings use when they visit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1039373 Fri, 23 Aug 2013 10:44:25 +0000 cascademom 1039373@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. They can sleep on the floor with an air mattress or on the couch. When LO slept in his RNP, MIL stayed in his nursery in a daybed we have in there during the maternity week from hell. </p> <p>When DH was talking about selling our place and moving, he mentioned a 3 bedroom place. I was oddly relieved about it since I don't want to have space for her to stay with us. Bad of me, I know, but it's the truth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1039371 Fri, 23 Aug 2013 10:44:14 +0000 HLK208 1039371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have an extra room but it's currently the playroom so we would need an air mattress. We had a queen size guest bed which got ruined in our old house when our basement flooded:( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1039349 Fri, 23 Aug 2013 10:37:32 +0000 Mrs Checkers 1039349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. Every room is currently occupied. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1036056 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 10:36:08 +0000 HellOnHeels 1036056@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a guest room that is currently in the beginning stages of a revamp (goodbye 70s red carpet and ugly wallpaper!), and in the meantime have 2 beds in the "sunroom" and a futon in another room that are available for use. That guest room will become the kids room in the near future, though... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1036026 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 10:30:56 +0000 yoursilverlining 1036026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, we have a dedicated guest room with a queen bed. There is also a guest bath. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035997 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 10:19:27 +0000 Bookish 1035997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really. The twin bed that will be LO's is in the guest room, so I guess we have room for one guest? No one has wanted to sleep there so far lol. When she takes the twin bed we will put a full in the guest room so that we can have guests again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035988 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 10:16:45 +0000 pinkcupcake 1035988@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, we have five bedrooms. One is a full time guest room and the others can be used as a guest room if need be since we have an aerobed </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035985 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 10:15:17 +0000 Grace 1035985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a guest room with a queen and an air mattress could go on the floor in the office. One day, we'll finish the basement and there will at least be a pull out sofa down there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035761 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:47:36 +0000 lamariniere 1035761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sort of, my office is also the playroom and guest room (pull out couch). We don't often have guests, but it works well when we do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035756 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:46:00 +0000 wonderstruck 1035756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. We have a spare bedroom but it is full with the computer desk and all of DH's guitars and amps. Having guest beds would be inviting major trouble with my extended family! There's my uncle who lives out of state but doesn't have a steady job so he occasionally moves back and needs a place to stay for months/years at a time, my aunt who won't get a job because she thinks she should qualify for disability even though the government keeps denying her, so she's always couch-hopping, my cousin who invited that aunt to stay with them for awhile even though they get into ridiculously loud/violent arguments and then my cousin wants to crash somewhere else (plus her bf and son) to avoid her. So no way, no guest room.</p> <p>Both of our immediate families live within a half hour of our house though, so there's really no need for it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035745 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:44:24 +0000 tinyperson 1035745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a 2 bedroom, so guests sleep on our pullout couch in the living room. Not ideal, but it's ok. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035728 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:40:35 +0000 avivoca 1035728@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If they don't mind the couch, they can stay with us. But now that we have a baby on the way, we are thinking about getting a blow-up mattress or sofa bed to put in our office. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035725 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:40:06 +0000 pui 1035725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My SIL and her DH are staying in our empty basement apartment. We also have a futon in our office that can turn in to a double bed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035722 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:37:31 +0000 ShootingStar 1035722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do have a guest room. It was actually really important to me to keep it, even though it causes us kind of a hassle now that DS is on the way. But all of my close friends, and my family live at least 3 hours away. I wanted my parents to be able to visit and stay with us. </p> <p>We technically have 2 bedrooms on one floor, and a room called the loft on the next floor up. The loft is like having a finished basement on the top of the house, but it's only accessible through the master bedroom. We have moved up the loft, will put baby in the master, and keep the 2nd bedroom as a guest room. I really wanted to make it a combo guest/baby room, but it was just too small. </p> <p>Next house will have at least 4 bedrooms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035715 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:34:07 +0000 Synchronicity 1035715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, we have a dedicated guest room and it does get used pretty frequently by friends and family members (usually our siblings). We don't have a LO yet, but I can imagine how much MORE frequently it will be used once we do, since we live in a different city than our families... *shudder*. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035699 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:27:47 +0000 yellowbird 1035699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: We have a guest room and an office. If we have another LO we'll probably get rid of the office </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035698 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:27:19 +0000 Andrea 1035698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes we do. Our parents live far away so a guest room is a must for us. I would hate to lose it, but I think we're ok! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035689 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:25:06 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1035689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really. Guests would have to sleep on the couch (not ideal) or downstairs in the game room on an air mattress. We can't accommodate many people! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035686 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:23:59 +0000 teamjse 1035686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes right now we do, when we have number 2 then we won't. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035681 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:22:53 +0000 Turd Ferguson 1035681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, we have a guest room with a queen bed in it. I mean, I guess it's nice, but I am not one of those people that enjoy having guests at all...let alone overnight guests... Hahahha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035650 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:14:56 +0000 looch 1035650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a dedicated guest room with a full sized bed. It was a requirement that we have a house with a dedicated room for guests because my husband's entire extended family lives abroad and we have at least 2 sets of them visit per year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035625 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:05:23 +0000 LuLu Mom 1035625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a guest room with a full size bed, when baby #2 happens then we will be out a guest room, but will have room in the basement to set up a bed. Hopefully we will be almost out of this house by that time though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-room-for-guests#post-1035616 Thu, 22 Aug 2013 08:02:17 +0000 mediagirl 1035616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup. We have 5 bedrooms. One is a dedicated guest room downstairs with a queen bed and a full bath attached. My office upstairs can be a guest room with an airbed and the loft can be a guest room with an air bed, as well. We also have a couch in the loft and a couch in the family room that can be used for guests, if needed. </p>
