FTASF  =  STAFF,  DENKI  =  INKED,  URSEEM  =  RESUME,  NLEERT  =  RELENT   —   Giving us:  SAIEDSUMRET

Clue/Question:  After upgrading to lodgings with two bedrooms, they would have – – –

Answer:  “SUITE“ DREAMS

(Very familiar stinky pun!  I’m pretty sure we’ve had a version of this pun in the past.  Not the recent past, mind you, but I’m almost positive it’s been used before.

None of the clue words are coming up as new, however all of the jumbles appear to be so.  The toughest one for me was “denki”.  The others I got immediately.  Excellent answer letter layout.  Nothing obvious about it, at all.

Cute cartoon.  I’ve never stayed at a hotel room/suite with bunk-beds, but I’m sure that they’re out there.  I am disappointed to find that *bunkbeds* is not an acceptable compound word!  What’s up with that???  The world is run by idiots!  LOL!  Short and sweet today, word-nerd bunkies!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
