beds down
Settles for sleep
Beds down means to settle into a place for sleep, especially in temporary or makeshift circumstances: The hikers bedded down under the stars.
It can also describe getting someone else settled for the night: She bedded down the children before the guests arrived.
The phrase suggests making do with available sleeping arrangements rather than one's usual bed.
