Should you have guests in a Small Space? And how?

A topic that comes up again and again when talking about small spaces is whether you can or should accommodate for overnight guests. This is a complicated question as it means different things for different families. I think the first question to ask yourself is who is staying over and how often? I’ve met with families who have family members staying over and helping with kids multiple times a year and staying for extended periods. I’ve also met with families who only have guests once or twice a year for a night or two. Both of these families don’t need to accommodate for overnight guests in the same way.

Moving Wall Beds

I’ve always been of the opinion that wall beds are a good long term investment. We bought ours with the intent to always be able to provide us with an additional “bedroom” in whatever space we found ourselves in next. I often argued this to others who considered or were reluctant to consider a wall bed to solve their growing-family-in-a-small-space problems. Well we have finally moved (into a 2 bedroom apartment) and moved 2 wall beds with us, so I can officially report back on our findings in doing that.
