OR if you're in the cold zone, it's an unheated room. The idea of the sleep room seemed strange when I first saw a chapter house with one but the members loved it. They had their "day rooms" with desks/ closets and a day bed that you could sleep on if you were sick, or needed to study late. They were strict about no hitting snooze buttons and using heatsets if you had to have a radio/ music. No roommate wars over lighting or noise. The dormer was always quiet, dark and cold.
