Exactly what we were looking for. Bed for 9 year old with small room - she's outgrown her extendable bed and needs more space to play now. The height isn't as daunting as a full bunk bed and she loves her new den underneath so a good happy medium! Only downside is it is a little wobbly, and I have to climb into it to fit the fitted sheet (due to the size of the room) but doesn't feel unsafe.
