Size & arrangement matters - King Queen double twin - double size ??

[Martin333]

Describing the bed situation at present does not cover all basic arangements and specifically not European standards.

E.G. we have double beds of 2 x 90cm x 200cm that form a double bed but upon request can be set up as two singles (Twin arangement)

Unfortunately the main description just shows double beds ... would be nice to show double (large) or twin arangement.

Also double bed is an ambivalent description here in Europe.

In Germany it is at least a 180cm x 200cm, France if I'm not mistaken it is 150cm x 200cm  here in Spain ( Galicia) a double bed is just 135cm x 190cm !!!!

King or Queen size or xxl beds means nothing to Europeans.

Would be nice if there would be some more options.

AND  Childbed upon request - not as standard

Cheers

As a host and a traveller I agree that it is too hard to search to search for specific types of beds and too hard to understand what is offered by hosts.  Could there be a king, queen, full, twin search for airbnbs in the US and Canada then maybe something else (do it by measurements maybe for european countries)? I understand you can contact the host to ask but this is time consuming and then you get spammed sometimes.  My husband and I and most of our friends value having a king bed.  Practically all hotels in the US offer king rooms so this is not an uncommon preference.  It is very hard to tell what is offered (especially in Europe) when booking.
