I think they are very unconfortable for all 3 guests. If your goal is to have as many people as possible, it may be a great idea. But, if your differential is going to be quality, avoid them.
tripple bunks... good? bad? ugly?
Hostel Trends and News
i've traveled the globe, been to many hostels, and i've only ever seen tripple bunks once... in a top rated cool hostel in rio.
at first i thought... what the hell is this... and it was a bit of a task getting up, with a few beers... but kinda got used to em...
question... if you've limited space.. do you think these are a good idea?

The guzer.com one scares me. Haha, I definitely could not get up there. But that second one from bestbunkbeds is really neat. I've always considered curtains too when thinking about a hostel I want to open. I don't know how many times I had to ask for an extra sheet for a make shift curtain on a bottom bunk.

We have a few triple bunk beds here. However, they are only in the 12 and 15 bed dorms, which are enormous rooms with very high ceilings and 2 bathrooms, so there is still plenty of headroom even in the top bunk.
Sometimes we do get guests scared of falling out though, which always leaves me wondering, do they often fall out of their normal beds at night? :rolleyes:

i saw it once in an apartment in Hong kong. The triple bunk bed was made of solid wood, strong frame, and hooked to the wall so that it wouldn't be shaky when anyone climbed up and down to their bed. To keep the height lower, the lower bunk bed started from the floor and no bed legs at all.
How much was the triple bunk bed in Rio compared to the market price? If that's cheap and fair enough, i think it's acceptable.

If you're really in a place where your price per square meter and customer demand are high enough to warrant triple-deckers, then look into building a loft floor or some kind of purpose built cubicle structures. Your cleaning staff will hate you.

I agree with most of the comments here but changing sheets can be made easier by using a high density foam type mattress and not a have inner spring, also foam is easier to bend towards you to flick the fitted sheep under. A good triple tier bunk bed will be well designed, safe, sturdy and not squeak. our Dallas D3 is popular in London hostels as it gives full adult height in each compartment so you can sit up, privacy curtains are an option too, so there, a triple bunk bed can work well for a hostel and backpacker.
