Interviewer instructions
H9. Number of rooms used for sleeping
Ask: "How many rooms in this house are bedrooms and rooms used for sleeping?"

Record the number of bedrooms and other rooms used for sleeping by the household in the space that corresponds to the type of the room.
If there are many households within the same house, count only bedrooms and other rooms used for sleeping of that particular household only.
If a household lives in many houses, count the total number of bedrooms and other rooms used for sleeping in all houses.
If there is no bedroom, record "0".
Each household must have at least one room used for sleeping. If there is no partition for rooms within the house, record "1" in the space corresponding to other room used for sleeping (see the definition of room from number 8 of the housing section in the definition chapter).
If there are 8 bedrooms or more, record "8" in the space corresponding to bedroom.
