Cute. Super low. There is no support under the mattress, so either use two mattresses or a bedspring. I don't know if bedsprings are even a thing anymore, but to get the look shown on the picture, it took me two memory foam mattresses. Great for sleepovers I guess? The bookshelf is not very deep. Only super small books will fit it. But it's so cute and nest like. Not perfect, but very cute. Easy enough to assemble and sturdy enough too.
