bunks
Tiered camp beds
Bunks are narrow beds, typically stacked in pairs to save space.
They're standard in ships' cabins, military barracks, summer camps, and children's rooms: The kids wanted bunk beds.
To bunk is to sleep somewhere, often temporarily or informally: I bunked with a friend for a week.
Separately, bunk means nonsense: That's pure bunk.
