Each side has shelves and deep drawers for storage. \u00a0 Our guests can unpack and store their luggage away in the luggage closet we had built in under the stairs. \u00a0If you have the space and also need extra room for visitors to sleep, you might consider buying a Murphy bed. \u00a0We highly recommend it.<\/h3>\n
