What are the beds like in Egypt resort hotels and how to get an extra bed for a child?

TL;DR
Standard rooms have a double bed. On request, hotels bring a rollaway bed with a full-height mattress — comfortable even for adults, not just kids.
What the community said
An extra rollaway bed was brought to the room with a new mattress. Each guest had 2 pillows plus small decorative ones. Bedding was fresh and white.

In a standard room, the extra rollaway comes with a thick, full-height single mattress — not a thin fold-out. Very comfortable for young children and suitable for older kids too.

The children's beds in the room are also suitable for shorter adults (up to about 156 cm) — they feel like regular adult beds.

If you need separate beds (e.g. parent with child), it's best to request a deluxe room with twin beds in advance, before check-in.

Family rooms appear to always include a double bed as standard. Standard room configuration may differ.

The extra bed is not a flimsy cot — it's a proper rollaway bed on wheels with a real mattress. Large and stable, worked well for a family with a child.

The extra bed setup is similar to a 1+1 arrangement: a wheeled bed with a mattress comparable to a standard bed. Not like an old-style cot — quite decent.
