Bed

The following is a self-made sentence for an expression of a hotel brochure.
Could you please tell me if it sounds natural?

What is 'semi-double'? It does not sound comfortable and it is not in the dictionary. I think you need another word.

Thank you for your corrections. May I ask you a question? How would you include the element of "sleeps two" in the sentence?

'Double bed' does that. That is what a double bed is for: two people.
