🛌 Bedding vs. Linen – What’s the Difference?

It is important to understand the difference between bedding and linen, since they are treated differently during your stay and at move-out.

🛌 Bedding (provided by LifeX – must stay in the room)

Bedding includes:

  • Top mattress
    A thin 5cm mattress placed above the main bed frame. The cover can be unzipped and washed.

  • Duvet
    The thick comforter you sleep with, used with a duvet cover.

  • Sleeping pillow (usually 60x70 cm)
    The regular pillow you sleep on.

  • Decorative pillows (usually 50x50 cm)
    Extra pillows in various colors, placed for decoration.

  • Pillow protectors
    Waterproof covers placed over sleeping pillows to prevent stains. Look for a small blue Jysk tag.

  • Mattress protector
    A waterproof layer placed over the top mattress to protect it. It usually comes with straps or elastic corners.

  • Bed blanket
    May vary in style and color. Typically used for extra warmth or decoration.

🔁 All of these items must remain in the room when you move out, and will be inspected during your check-out.


🧺 Linen (belongs to you – must be taken with you)

Linen includes:

  • Duvet cover & pillow cases
    Thin cotton covers that go over the duvet and sleeping pillow. These are white and provided when you move in.

  • Fitted sheet
    A cotton sheet with elastic edges that fits over the top mattress and mattress protector. The size matches your bed.

  • Towels
    You’ll receive two:

    • One small towel (50x100 cm)

    • One large towel (70x140 cm)

🧳 Please take your linen with you when moving out — or dispose of it properly if no longer needed. These are not reused for the next member.


🧼 Why This Matters

Clear separation between bedding and linen ensures proper hygiene and helps us maintain a great living experience for all members. During check-out, only bedding items will be inspected — so it’s essential to leave them in good condition.
