Finnish to English

Poetry & Literature
In the literal sense described by Perussanakirja:
ark. tav. lattialle tehdystä usealle nukkujalle tarkoitetusta tilapäisestä makuusijasta.
So a large shared mattress like this: http://www.anssikela.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/nightfer...
Could just say something like "shared sleeping arrangements", but am curious to hear others' ideas.
