Ryndam Holland America cruise - stateroom with 4 people?

We are booked in a "large inside stateroom" with our 2 children. From looking at the pictures there are only 2 single beds, so it seems like the couch must pull out to become the bed to sleep the extra two people. But it doesn't state this anywhere. Has anyone stayed in these rooms with 4 people to tell me how the sleeping arrangements work?





Answer :
On this particular ship, quads (rooms for 4 people) have 2 lower beds (which can be combined into 1 big bed), 1 sofa bed, and 1 upper bed (pulls down from the ceiling).

You can check out which cabins are quads in the deck plan. They're marked with a square:

My cousin and her family have done this. It's OK, but I don't think you'll want to spend too much time in your cabin other than sleeping.

Enjoy your trip!





Answer :
Yes, the beds come out of the wall, like a fold out bunk bed in most cases. Plenty of room, except after dinner when they pull these beds down and make them up for you. So try to pick up before you go to dinner...Also, take SOFT sided luggage to stuff under the beds when you unpack. Also, we designate the left end of the closet as a "hamper" to dump dirty clothes, and stuff them in a suitcase under the bed periodically. Done this OFTEN, and always had fun, just try to maintain a tiny bit of organization and the small space will be no big deal....





Answer :
There are three ways this can be set up. One is a pull out couch that sleeps two. Another is a pull out couch that sleeps one plus a bed that come out of the ceiling. Or there could be two beds that come out of the ceiling, like the examples shown in the link below ...






Answer :
It seems like it should say somewhere if your particular room can accommodate 3rd & 4th passengers. However, I don't think you would be able to book 4 people in a room for 2 (as in the website wouldn't allow you to). As for the other two beds, usually on cruises the couch doesn't pull out. It converts to a bed... the like take the cushions off and stuff and it becomes a bed. The other pulls out from the ceiling.
