It seems uncontroversial that the number beds does not equal the number of homes. A suburban house is not four homes just because four people live in it. Similarly I'd say the number of homes in a dorm would be the number of units, each being a home for however many students.

That’s certainly how it felt to me as a college student living in the dorm. And I guarantee I took up more space than just the bed I slept in 😆
Love this look at the meanings behind the words themselves -- “car storage” is a new one to ponder for me :)
