the bed height is a real issue when you need a ladder to get in and out. However, when my husband and I got married back in the day. We spent our honeymoon first night at a Sheraton with silk sheets in the honeymoon suite. The bed height wasn't bad but we kept slipping off the damn bed. Hard to sleep when you can't remain on the bed.
