A twin bed, sometimes referred to as a single, measures 39" wide by 75" long. An extra long twin bed measures 39" wide by 80" long. The extra 5" is length is great for an adult or tall teen. If you decide on an extra long twin bed, it will require extra long twin size sheets, which sometimes are not a stock item in all stores. It will also require an extra long twin size mattress. Before you decide on which size bed, check the difference in price for the two different size beds, mattresses, and bedding, which may factor into your decision making process.
