[QUOTE=SkiAdcock;28104341][QUOTE=SAN-man;28104062] I've been known to just go on Amazon and buy an air mattress sent straight to the hotel. You can get perfectly decent ones for $20-30, and hotels have always been happy to bring up and extra blanket and sheets.

I speak only for myself, but I think it's a bit tacky to ask a hotel to send up blankets & sheets for the air mattress when you're trying to circumvent their roll-away charges.

Cheers.
I dont see getting extra sheets any different than getting extra towels.
On the other hand I see $50 per kid per night charges some hotels try to extort as tacky but of course ymmv

In general though i can somewhat understand trying to force an extra adult to pay a rollaway fee as adults can book another room. When you travel with small kids however booking two rooms is not the best solution as connecting rooms are never guaranteed plus leaving kids in a separate room may present additional challenges. Suites are usually priced completely out of whack so that's rarely an option...
