The tall front cover to the trundle bed is big enough to hide away the mattress and bedding from view.

Cons:

• It leaves a sour smell that takes a week or so to disappear.
• Anyone on the taller side isn’t able to sit on the bottom bunk. The top bunk sits too low. It’s pretty much only made for children.
