<p>got something in the mail today about a linen service, implying that all the beds are too long for standard sheets. what’s the deal here?</p>
<p>you need extra long twin size sheets for bu's beds</p>
<p>The Parents Cafe has an entire thread about shopping for linens, etc.</p>
<p>Most dormitory beds require extra long twin sheets. They are very easy to find. I wouldn't use a linen service.</p>
<p>HEY question.. can you bring your own mattress? because I have a mattress at home that has sat on my top bunk for 4 years and I've slept on it maybe twice... its pretty much brand new, and I figure it will be more comfortable than those crazy cots... ??</p>
<p>Don't do linen service...mostly, you'll have to go and retrieve them at a certain time each week and it will be a pain. You'll have to do laundry; you can do the sheets then too...Honestly, I'll bet everyone who signs up for this for the first year ends up cancelling the second year...</p>
<p>Well, I don't know if you can bring a mattress, but my S says he want to get a memory foam this year.</p>
<p>If u go to Bed Bath & Beyond's website, there's a special section for college students. The sheets we need are called "Twin X-Long"... Click on the link and u can see all their "Shop for College" items:</p>
<p>Hope that helps! :-)</p>
