The mattresses in the bunk beds were often described as thin and worn, leading to discomfort particularly for adults. Some guests also mentioned issues like thin pillows and having to make the beds themselves, which detracted from their stay. While the property has installed mattress toppers in some rooms, improving comfort, other areas still seem to suffer from issues like firm or unbearably thin mattresses.
