8 Insanely Over-The-Top Dorm Rooms You Need to See to Believe

Even though most dorm rooms usually house two twin beds, Dawn recommends buying all of your bedding in queen-size. For one, dorm beds can typically be lofted or higher off the ground than normal, so the queen bedding won't hang or appear out of place. And secondly, Dawn says, "when I do a room, I never put a twin coverlet on the bed. [The student] needs to be able to use it for more than one year." So, opting for the queen set can also be the more financially sound investment as you grow into a townhouse or apartment in later years.
