agree  writeaway: sleeping arrangements includes more than beds. couchage covers it perfectly. I also vote for 'possibilités'.

agree  Tony M: I would still tend to keep it in the plural, but there's really no need to go into more detail than this. They really just wanted to say 'beds', but as there may be different types, they had to fudge round it, as no handy word like 'couchage' in EN ;-)

disagree  Tony M: The s/t says nothing about how MANY there are, just that they are comfortable. / There is nothing in 'comfortable sleeping arrangements' to justify over-translation by adding 'nombre de...'

  -> wrong

neutral  Daryo: the key point is not the number of beds available (or even hammocks for all we know) but in their spatial disposition and combination of single beds/twin beds/king size beds/cots etc...
