Dorm Question: Bed

<p>How high above the ground is the bed? I just wanna know if I can fit anything down there (maybe my suitcase)? If it isn't high enough, where do other ppl fit their suitcases?</p>

<p>There is enough room to fit a suitcase, at least there is in Unit 2, but depends on how big it is though...</p>

<p>this might be too much to ask but if ur living in a dorm right now can you measure or estimate how high up? :-/</p>

<p>my suitcase is kinda large.</p>

<p>My response is from my memory of last year... :)</p>

<p>Double or triple? For triple you could easily fit any large suitcase behind the desk that is shared by two people. Enough room for two big suitcases, even three. </p>

<p>For double there is an opening next to and behind the drawers that are under the bed to store a suitcase(s).</p>

<p>if you're in a triple, don't forget that you'll have two other people who ALSO want to put their suitcases under the bed (there's only one 'under the bed' in a triple because the other bed has a second desk under it, and the third bed is on top of the first one)</p>

<p>In Foothill, they put drawers under our beds, so we had only maybe 1/4 to 1/3 of the space available. Height-wise it could definitely fit your average suitcase.</p>

<p>hmmm. i measured and the width of my suitcase is 12 inches. that's a foot...</p>

<p>the bed for a triple is that high up the ground?...</p>

<p>is there a drawer for clothes and such in unit 2 double under the bed? so i don't need to take my own space organier stuff?</p>

<p>i think im gonna get bed risers so i have more storage room for underneath the bed</p>

<p>I do believe you cannot raise your bed due to a policy.</p>

Well, not totally true...you can loft your bed ONLY if you contact hall management and they do it for you. It also costs a fee...I'm not sure how much. You can't do it yourself though for safety reasons (what with the San Andreas fault and everything).</p>

<p>Right. Thanks for the clarification.</p>

<p>Yes, the Hayward Fault runs right underneath Memorial Stadium, that thing can bring over a 7.0 quake.</p>

<p>I believe it is $50.</p>

<p>and this is for doubles who want to sleep high and have room underneath for more space right? how high do they make it?</p>

<p>They make it as high as the top bed of a bunk set.</p>

<p>Yes, to loft beds it's a $50 fee.</p>

<p>can anyone measure the height of a bed in a triple (the bottoe one)?</p>

<p>pleaseeeeeeeeee. i really doubt its 1 feet high</p>

<p>You seem sure you will get that lower bunk bed.</p>

<p>I seem to remember someone saying long long ago that for a fee you could also get a railing installed so you don't roll off the top bunk to your death. Is this true?</p>
