Understand What Bedding You Need for Your Accommodation
It is important to understand the bed sizes required when staying in student accommodation. This will allow you to prepare accordingly by either bringing your own bedding or ordering a new one.

In student accommodations, there are generally four common bed sizes:
Single: 3 feet wide 0.9 m
Large single: 3 feet 6 inches wide 1.1 m

It's crucial to check your specific hall or accommodation for the size of the bed you will be using.
