Bedroom

A bedroom is a room of a house, mansion, hotel, student residence, or apartment where people sleep. A typical Western bedroom contains as bedroom furniture one or two beds (ranging from a crib for an infant, a small twin bed for a single person, twin beds for two people, to a king-size bed for a couple), a clothes closet, a nightstand, and a dresser (dressing table). Except in bungalows or one-storey motels, bedrooms are usually on one of the floors of a dwelling that is above ground level.

Bedrooms typically have a door for privacy (in some cases lockable from inside) and a window for ventilation. In larger bedrooms, a small desk and chair or an upholstered chair and a chest of drawers may also be used. In Western countries, some large bedrooms, called master bedrooms, may also contain a bathroom. Where space allows bedrooms may also have televisions and / or video players.

In larger Victorian houses it was common to have accessible from the bedroom a boudoir for the lady of the house and a dressing room for the gentleman.Attic bedrooms exist in some houses; since they are only separated from the outside air by the roof they are typically cold in winter and may be too hot in summer. The slope of the rafters supporting a pitched roof also makes them inconvenient. In houses where servants were living in they often used attic bedrooms.

Guestroom

Guestroom is the fourth studio album by the band Ivy. It was released on September 10, 2002 by Minty Fresh and Unfiltered Records. Unlike the group's previous albums, the album consisted entirely of cover songs, without any new material. Some of the songs featured on the album were previously released as B-sides to the band's singles.

Two singles were released from Guestroom. Lead single, "Digging Your Scene" was previously recorded for Ivy's previous studio release, Long Distance (2001), but an updated version appeared on this album for the single release. "Let's Go to Bed" was released as the final single for the album in late 2002. Another song, "I Guess I'm Just a Little Too Sensitive", was also previously recorded on their debut extended play, Lately.

Upon release, Guestroom featured mostly positive reviews from music critics, who praised the covers included on the album. Dominique Durand's vocals were also praised for being "wispy" and "warm".

The Japanese edition of Guestroom was reissued on April 18, 2015, in the United States by Minty Fresh.
