Just thought I'd mention it for those of us that don't have $60+ lying around for cushy stairs  |
Hey Bender, buddy!!! Talk to Toto about the stairs .... you'll feel like a King!! She has a "banker's box" with the top covered [so she won't slip] to get up and down from the bed. In the living room she has a styrofoam thingy with a cushion on top to get up and down from the sofa!! She does have some better ones at our home in AL, but for traveling, "necessity is the mother of invention"!!!

Fortunately she is small and the cardboard is plenty sturdy for her ... and if I ever get adventurous I will actually cover them with something and they won't be such eyesores!!
The real beauty of these are .... you can make them sturdy/safe .... when you get ready to pack you can [a] use them to pack stuff in or [b] toss them in the dumpster!!
One more handy idea .... when we are in a hotel, we just take what we need from our suitcases and stack them by the bed and the little princess has her little stair!! Sometimes we use the extra pillows!! It's all just an adventure!!
