A bed or a pull-out sofa in a single room: pros and cons

In the apartment, I would like to allocate a place for a comfortable sleeping place and for receiving guests, even if it is a small one-room apartment. Here the question arises: should I put a bed or a folding sofa? We understand the pros and cons of each option.

Bed
The bed is an ideal option for sleeping, especially for daily use. You can choose a mattress of the right stiffness for it — it supports the body in the right position and allows you to get enough sleep. In addition, the mattress can be replaced with a new one at any time, thereby updating the sleeping place.

It is easier to choose the right bed width or order an increased length. Keep in mind that the minimum comfortable width of a sleeping place for two is 160 cm. Another plus is that the bed will easily become an additional storage space. In models with lifting mechanisms or drawers, it is convenient to store boxes with shoes, winter clothes, and spare blankets.
