bunkmate
Shared berth occupant
A bunkmate is someone who shares sleeping quarters with you, typically in a bunk bed or dormitory setting.
The term appears most often in contexts like summer camp, military barracks, or college dorms: My bunkmate snored all night.
It implies close, often temporary proximity rather than chosen companionship.
