Not the luxury kind but very serviceable. However, you might not find a cool blue. <BR/><BR/>Also something else kind of weird that we ran into is that Mexican double and queen beds are usually 75" long rather than 80" long like we have in the USA. So watch the size of your sheets. Costco carried USA brand mattresses but they were 75" long. We found some very good Mexican mattresses that were made for the USA that were 80" long. Confusing? Yes, but I just wanted to make you aware of the differences in sizes.<BR/><BR/>I elected to only use white sheets here in SMA because colors fad so badly here. I don't know what is in the water or the Mexican brands of detergent but it is a problem. It may not be a problem in Matz.<BR/><BR/>Oh, one other thing. I don't like most Mexican pillows and I've never seen any down pillows here except at Costco. So that might be something you might want to stuff in somewhere. <BR/><BR/>I'm getting so excited for you. You are almost here!Billie Mercerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17826454938577230499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36412663.post-82406262000476525912007-07-01T08:20:00.000-06:002007-07-01T08:20:00.000-06:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
