Since I grew up in Alabama, went to boarding school in Virginia, spent a semester at Sewanee in Tennessee, and graduated from SMU in Dallas, my friends live ALL over the country. Though I’ve resided in Dallas for ten years now, a lot of my college friends have moved back home or changed locations for their careers. While we may be separated by many miles, having friends in so many different cities around the country actually has its perks – specifically, a great excuse for a weekend getaway with a free place to stay!
After a decade of apartment hopping through Dallas, I moved into a cozy little home in Dallas last year. My house has two bedrooms, but I decided to turn the guest bedroom into a cloffice (closet + office, #priorities). Since I work from home, I wanted my house to fit my everyday needs – hence, my new giant walk-in closet!
How do I host guests without a guest bedroom?
Without a guest bedroom, I wanted to make sure I had a comfortable and inviting space for my friends to stay – After all, that’s what friends are for! I initially started with a daybed in my sunroom,  but I wanted something a bit larger in case my friends bring their significant other. After lots of research, I found the perfect solution: Comfort Sleeper® by American Leather®. Since I planned on updating my couch anyways, the Comfort Sleeper® was the obvious choice!
What I loved the most about the Comfort Sleeper is how it comes in so many different colors and fabrics. I could also choose between a couch or any-shaped sectional, plus I could choose three different size bed options – Queen, Queen Plus, and King! Based on the size of my living room, I chose the Perry shape in a size Queen Plus in the Sunbrella fabric. The reason I loved the Sunbrella fabric so much was due to the durability, as well as the luxurious texture and color!
Let me just say, after ordering my last two couches online without trying it out and having rock-hard couches throughout my twenties, I was a bit weary of ordering another couch online without testing it out first. However based on reviews, I went ahead and ordered it – and I am completely in love! The couch has such a sophisticated shape, but it’s also so comfortable! I feel so confident ordering American Leather again in the future – though I know this one is going to stay with me for a LONG time!
After experiencing the quality of my Comfort Sleeper, it’s no surprise retailers nationwide sell them – even stores like Crate and Barrel, and Bloomingdales too!
What the difference between a Comfort Sleeper and the average sofa bed?
The Comfort Sleeper by American Leather is not your average sofa bed – In fact, it’s recognized as The Only Sleeper Sofa You Can Sleep On © Most of us have probably slept on a sofa bed at some point in our lives – and you probably remember feeling the metal springs or the overall discomfort. However, the Comfort Sleeper by American Leather is unlike the old sofa beds you’re used to. With a memory foam mattress, It’s the most comfortable and most versatile sofa you will ever sleep on!
Aside from the rave reviews, I decided to test the bed out for myself. Whether it was sheer curiosity or nostalgia of childhood sleepovers, I was super excited to try it out! The result? I slept so well that I slept through my alarm clock. I was blown away by how comfortable it was, and I’m now so excited for my friends to come visit! (Friends, your room is ready!)
How do you make the space feel inviting?
To make my Comfort Sleeper feel extra inviting, I like to set it up as an actual bed. Rather than tossing on some sheets and whatever blanket I can find, dressing the bed up with nice linens and a coordinating warm duvet makes your guests feel so welcome. If I’m cozied up under layers of blankets in my room, I want to make sure they have the same!
I also like to make sure my space feels welcoming by lighting a scented candle, keeping fresh flowers in the room, and making sure they know where everything they need is located!
Whether you’re looking for a way to host guests without a spare bedroom OR you simply want a new couch to update your living room, I highly recommend the Comfort Sleeper by American Leather. With so many fabric options, styles, and more, you can have you dream couch Designed And Delivered To Your Home In 30 Days ©!
