   • Having single beds: Describes a room, typically in a hotel or other accommodation, that contains one single bed or is furnished with separate single beds, as opposed to one large bed.

Examples

Advanced Usage

• The term is often used in contrast with "double-bedded" or "twin-bedded" (which can also mean with two single beds).
