@cameo43 your daughter can request a ladder. My daughter didn’t have have one initially. A friend broke her ankle getting out of her bed (without the ladder). Those without ladders climbed down the foot of the bed which had a rail. They thought this was adequate. But in a dark room at night was tricky. My D immediately requested a ladder and got a ladder.
She was in a triple and it worked out fine. We brought up a 3 drawer container for storage. Also, many kids had an over the door hanger which created additional hanging space in front of the wardrobe. Because the bed was bunked (no night stand) she had a clip on light and also a little storage bin that hung from a top rail of bed. She put her glasses in it before going to sleep.
They were all athletes (just swim bags, no major gear). They had lockers in athletic facility to keep some things. They had a good size fridge with a freezer (good for icing sore body parts) and a microwave so they could eat in the room after morning practice. They also had a Kuerig. Somehow, things stacked (safely). The space was extremely tight but they loved it! They became fast friends and managed the small space with no issues.
There were times it looked bad, with wet towels and suits hanging from all over the place. They seemed to have agreed upon tidy-up days. D said the hardest part was changing sheets way up high with little clearance. She is 5’11" and I’m pretty sure lived in fear of banging her head. The best part about sophomore year was a regular bed at ground level.
