Temporary guest bed

I'm going to have a teenage niece sleeping on the floor at ours for a few weeks, and need to organise a temporary bed for her which will be quick to get ready and small to store (it will have to store away during the day). Any ideas?

Do you have a budget ?

If not then I would recommend Aerobed expensive but 100% better than a 'normal' airbed.

There are inflatable ones that are quite comfy - or the folding ones ! We have both and each have their pluses and minuses !

How big is she ? We bought the cheapest fold up bed from Argos - it was about £30 - and the mattress is very thin - we have only used it for a 6 yr old and it doesn't look very comfy for an older person !

Alternatively - we have used the sofa cushions placed on the floor loads of times and they are as comfy as anything and free ! (and they go back on the sofas in the day !)

You can buy adult ReadyBeds too !

OR - camp beds - or even just those foamy rolls you buy for camping ! Or the cushions off sunbeds if you have them ?

Wings - there's always a budget! But it's very good to have a recommendation if we go down the £££ route. I'm also liking your suggestions, Scatterbrain, especially the sofa cushion one - comfy, simply, no purchase required/stuff to store... Thanks you two!
