Found them! The 5 cheapest mattress deals for dorms and guest rooms this Labor Day
Here are the five affordable mattresses to buy for your dorm or guest room in today's Labor Day sales
Today's Labor Day mattress sales are perfect for snagging a bargain bed for your dorm room or guest bedroom, with affordable mattresses becoming even cheaper. Right now, you can get a twin XL Linenspa Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress for as low as $163 on Amazon, a 15% off deal perfect for college students in need of a low-cost twin XL bed.
You can also find Linenspa Memory Foam Hybrid in this year's best mattress for all sleepers guide thanks to its affordable price tag for a hybrid. While we reccomend paying as much as your budget allows on a new mattress, we understand that you won't need to spend as much on a mattress that will only be sporadically used or only needed for a few years.
That's why we've rounded up the five best Labor Day mattress sales on affordable beds that are perfect for dorm and guest rooms. All featured picks will provide enough support and comfort to overnight guests and are available in twin XL sizes that are perfects for dorms, too.

Our Linenspa Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress review rates this as an affordable hybrid best suited for dorms, kids, and guest rooms.

Reviewers for our Siena memory foam mattress review loved the support and how cool this all-foam mattress slept - especially for the low price. A permanent 50% off Siena mattress deal means you can always bring home a twin Siena mattress for just $199, or a queen for only $399.
5. The Chill Mattress: was from $619 now from $399 at Cocoon by Sealy
The Chill Memory Foam mattress is the best cooling mattress for those on a tight budget. With a heat-dissipating design, this mattress is perfect for those who live - or are going to college in - a warm climate. Reviewers for our Cocoon by Sealy Chill mattress review also praised the excellent pressure relief and motion isolation. A queen is reduced from $1,079 to $699, and extras include free shipping, 100-night sleep trial, and a 10-year warranty.
Where can I buy a cheap mattress?
You can find the best cheap mattresses directly at budget sleep brands such as SweetNight, Lucid Mattress, Linenspa, and Zinus. Even well-know mattress brands such as Casper and Brooklyn Bedding offer affordable models.
Retailers such as Walmart, Target, Mattress Firm, Bed Bath & Beyond, and Amazon also have some pretty good sales, but be caution when buying from third-party retailers: you likely won't get the same extras (such as a sleep trial or warranty) as you would when buying directly from the brand.
