single beds

One-person mattress frames

Single beds are beds sized for one person, typically around 39 inches wide—the narrowest standard bed size for adults.

The term often appears in hotel or dormitory contexts: The room had two single beds.

A single bed contrasts with double, queen, or king sizes designed for couples.
