Sofa Bed...or other suggestions?

We've had a new room built over our garage. It's dual aspect (one dormer, one velux), 2.3m x 5m and we don't know how to furnish it!

We think we might want it as a guest bedroom/office, in which case a sofa bed would work in there, but I can't find any I like! Can anyone recommend a good sofa bed? What would you do with a brand new upstairs room of this size?

Thank you!

Hi there, we were considering a sofa bed for a large spare room that's currently used as a study/library (really Don't mean that to sound poncey!) But have now decided on a day bed and have seen a nice one in ikea. This is mainly because it dawned on us that getting a sofa bed in would mean taking the window out and needing a fair bit of expert help with that, whereas the day bed is self assembly. It's kingsize when used as a bed and has generous drawers beneath. I plan to put lots of cushion along the back and throws draped over when it's being used as a 'sofa'

We have one of these. It's great. Good storage underneath for pillows, divers, sheets, etc. It's slightly bigger than king size when pulled out. www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/beds/guest-beds-day-beds/hemnes-day-bed-w-3-drawers-2-mattresses-white-moshult-firm-spr-49186105/

I like that - with the right day cushions would be great.

It's very nice, think I'll order it in grey, though (lightish grey carpet and 'rock salt' paint on walls).

Ive always wanted one!

Sorry only just seen your question, looks as though a pp has answered it though which is good as I'm rubbish at posting links! It's white with a wooden frame and looks like a single until folded out
