Me, I prefer a cot, with an egg-crate mattress, two actually. Air mattresses always manage to loose air during the night, and they smell funny.
The built in pump is the only way to air it. This is a great air mattress, it doesn't smell funny, the air doesn't leak out, and it is almost as comfy as my real bed
