The problem is, that there is lots of things that are nice and cost near to
nothing, and if we choose all of them, It ends up costing quite a bit.
Howabout regular mattresses on floor, with people bringing their own sheets?
I'm not very fond of cramming the rooms with beds, it will make cleaning them
quite hard, so we risk converting the building to a junk-yard before the
end :) Mattresses on the other hand can be moved from the floor relatively
easily.
We might either try to pester the company bringing mattresses for the MM to
lend them for us before distributing them to the other buildings, or request
borrowing them from a local school. We also need to remember, that moving
200 beds + mattresses is a small logistical challenge.
